Hi everyone,

I’m having a problem with my preloader.

The preloader contains 2 keyframes and looks like this.

KEYFRAME 1

total\_bytes = \_root.getBytesTotal();  
loaded\_bytes = \_root.getBytesLoaded();  
remaining\_bytes = total\_bytes-loaded\_bytes;  
percent\_done = int((loaded\_bytes/total\_bytes)\*100)add “% loaded”;  
ifFrameLoaded (“content”, 92) {  
gotoAndPlay(“content”, 1);  
}

KEYFRAME 2

## gotoAndPlay(1);

This works without problems as long as the preloader stays on KEYFRAME1 and KEYFRAME 2.

I have an animation first and will be putting my preloader into a movieclip.  
When I try to do this, The preloader doesn’t show at all, and it doesn’t go to the next scene either.

Maybe someone can help me? I would appreciate it.

Thank you,

Filip
