Flash preload help

• silentseven

  How can i pre load an external movie to call on later in the main movie. for example I have a 200 frame animation and at the end I want it to play an mp3 that is 1.1mb. I have the _root.loadmovie.mcClip

  at the last frame but during the 200 frame I want it to load the external swf

  Is there a way to do this?

  Thanks

  you could place your now external swf into a movieclip, in the library, so it can be loading as the movie is playing the animation, then use attachMovie() on the desired frame to bring it to the state..

  or... on your external movielclip, have the first frame blank, and contain a stop() action, have it load with loadMovie() command as soon as your base movie begins to play, and at the end of your animation, call _root.myClip.gotoAndPlay(2);..

  hope that helps

  cheers
