i’ve searched through the posts (yes, pretty much all of them) and they don’t seem to do what i want, or i can’t get them to do what i want since i’m a bad coder.
anyway, what i have is six buttons that sit in a movieclip on the stage. the buttons are in the movieclips because i have them fading in at different intervals and that seems the easiest way to do that. at the end of the movieclips, the buttons each call:
on(release){
_root.emptypic.loadMovie(“attention_MED.jpg”);
_root.emptytext_mc.gotoAndPlay(“attention”);
}
emptypic is the empty movieclip on the main stage that the jpegs load into. i’ve tried putting preload scripts on the main timeline, and then in the button that sits on the movieclip (if any of that makes sense), but none seem to work at all. is there a simple script i can use for this (just a simple preloader, no fancy stuff) and where would i have to put the script? in the button that sits in the movieclip on the stage, or on the main timeline?
i know this is a lot, but anyone who helps will be my knight on a white horse!
