Hello, I am having major problems trying to get a preloader to work. I followed the tut, but after I insert the loader onto frame one, and move the main movie stuff over to frame 3, all of a sudden none of my other clips work. Here is a link to what it’s supposed to do, but it’s just taking forever to load, so I thought I’d use a preLoader.

I can also post my fla file…I’ll do that also.

Thanks for any help you can give.

well, after playing around w/ it…I got it figured out…for some reason (I’m sure you all already know this) but I had to change the code to say Go To And Stop instead of Go To and Play…any idea why that is?
