Qestion about Preloading Images ?

[thebolt99]

Ok well I'm kind of new to this flash stuff (worked a bunch in director). But the question I have is this. I'm trying to load images into a movie that is going to be a EXE. Can I have the images (in a SWF file) on any web server ? or does it have to be in the same domain as the EXE ?? and second how do I do that ? I have looked at a few tutorials they just aren't helping. If you have any suggestions please let me know.

Thank you very much,

Erik

You can load an swf into a flash player (.exe). You can also have your 'image' .swf's in another directory so I assum you could have them anywhere so long as the path name is correct. just use the loadMovieNum action.

Sorry, didn't see you asked HOW to do it.

Heres the code for loading and un-loading movies. The fact that you will publish to .exe makes no difference.

on (release) {
loadMovieNum ("your_dir/your_movie.swf", 1);
}

And to unload:

on (release) {
unloadMovieNum (1);
}
