[korndogg]

hey
ok...here is tha prob.
I'm doing a flash web site,it contains three scenes(preloader,intro,main).Tha question is related to preloading,I know how to do a basic preloader using actionscript(If Frame Is Loaded),but in my case I need to preload two scenes(intro and main) and Music.swf(it contains sound that is used in movie using LoadMovie action).I donno how to preload all three items(tha scene preloader is shown until scenes intro & movie and Music.swf are loaded).I will appreciate any help regarding this.
thnx a lot...[.]

I was given a really good link by someone here. The tutorial walks you through preloading, when you want to preload 4 separate items. I hope it helps ya.

Here's another link:

You do have to be careful about this one. I recall having problems with the following: since the to be loaded movies need to have their own preloaders, make sure they fonction to your satisfaction before adding the preloader on them. If not, testing the movie (as opposed to testing the scenes individually with Test Scene) will send it off in a indefinite loop that will often crash Flash!
Beware and save often!
