Hi

I am having trouble with my flash preloader and hoping I can get some help here. The problem is that when my page loads the preloader only appears when the bytes total is around 70%, before that, the screen is blank. I am not proficient in action script and cannot figure out why...

Here is the link: http://www.mediafusionlive.com/portfolio_latest.html

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks,
Z

If you are still working on this project, please could you post some code so I can be of further assistance. Nine times out of ten, there's a code problem, and it's easier to do have code errors with flash because the intellisense is crappy*

*In Flash 8, I haven't worked with Abobe Flash 9.

It's probably just because your main swf has to load itself first and maybe by that time, your loader has already made progress..

re: Flash Pre Loader not working properly


Its a common problem pal... you have a lot of linked library items which loads at the first frames. That cause your preloader load after these items and starts at 70%.

The possible solution is :

Create a container swf. and load your portfolio.swf using the script...

Hope your gripping...
