I went through the transitions turtorial, but I needed to change the script from having my loaded movies going into a container, to loading on a level with loadMovieNum…I thought I had changed all the appropriate things…but it never worked, and I’ve been screwing around with it aaalllll day and have made a complete mess of it…I have my midframe set in the external swfs, and the command to load the new swf in my last frame of each swf, but now, I’ve come so far with this script that I don’t know what I’ve done…if anyone could have a look at this mess and tell me what I’ve done wrong, I would really appreciate it:
```auto
on (release) {
_global.peter = "Discography2";
trace(_global.peter)
trace(_global.currMovie)
trace(_global.midframe)
if (_global.currMovie == undefined) {
_global.currMovie =_global.peter;
trace(_global.currMovie)
loadMovieNum(_global.currMovie+".swf", 3);
}else if (_level3._currentframe>=_global.midframe && _global.currMovie != undefined) {
trace("ok")
trace(_global.midframe)
_level3.gotoAndPlay(_global.midframe+1);
}
}
```
I’m lost, and this is a tad above my head, but I usually like a challenge, lest it ends with me pulling my hair out!!
thanks,
Adam
