Preloader starts at 46%

I have a preloader, the same exact one I’ve used time and time again, and at first it worked just fine, now, whenever I test it, the preload screen is blank until 46% of the movie is loaded, thats when the percent loaded text shows up. All I have for the preload screen is text that says “loading,” non-animated, and the dynamic text field for the percent. Has anyone ever run into this problem before?

Heres the code:

[AS]
bytes_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;
this.loadText = Math.round(getPercent*100)+"%";
if (bytes_loaded == bytes_total) {
this.gotoAndPlay(3);
}[/AS]

Have you exported items in the first frame ? Have you used components ?

did you embed fonts - use some music ?? (because they’re loaded before anything else)

Trying playing with a bar with it. Just add:

[AS]
this.loadBar._width = getPercent*[The width of your bar];
[/AS]

I had the same problem before where my text doesn’t show up at all and then suddenly the bar shows up and becomes full.
