Subject: Re: FLASH: HELP..URGENT PRELOADER NEEDED
From: Bill Numerick

Hi FecsX,

If you want to preload the entire movie go to the last scene, last frame and
put a label on it. Then where ever you want the preloader to start use the
if frame is loaded action in the first frame, use the last scene with the
label that you put on as the frame to be loaded before it plays, and in the
second frame (or where ever you do not want it to go past) put a go to where
ever you put the if frame is loaded action.

Another option you might want to try is using the load movie action...that
way you might not have to preload the entire movie. I'd also recommend
trying to get the file size down some by compressing the images I doubt many
people using modems are going to wait for a 3 meg download =).

Hope that Helps
