Preloading Query

If I have a Flash website that is made up of a main frame with lots of content movies that load depending on navigation, is there a way of preloading ALL the movies within the site at the very start? At the moment my preloader only preloads the main frame and it’s content, but not the external swfs.

Well loading them all in the beginning completely defeats the purpose of using loadMovie()

loadMovie() was created so that you can load content in dynamically keeping file size down. It keeps it down because any unviewed content is never loaded, and you can preload all your content seperately when you go to view it.

If you want everything to load at once you might as well use scenes, but that will kill dial-ups and probably take a while to load on broadband as well.

hmm ok, yeah I see. silly me :smiley: thnx m8

No problem :slight_smile:
