Preload won't work when image is inserted

programming flash
1

Hi,

I’ve made this preloader, but as soon as i put the image in a new layer in the first frame and test the flash file, it refuse to display the preload sequence. When i tried to put the image in frame 2 it would display 4 percent loading, but it stops there. It stills loads flash file though… Why does this happen?! :puzzled:

Since your preloader also uses frame 2 (It’s a gotoAndPlay(1) that makes the preloader loop) the image should start at frame 3.

thanx for your reply! :slight_smile: So that means if i want a image in my preloader i would have to use a different preloader…? :*(

Well it depends. As it is now that image is over 90% of the filesize. Actually the image is almost the only thing the preloader has to load. If there is going to be a lot more content I think you should that for now. Then you go back and decide what to actually do with the preloader.
