Hello
How do you get the preloader to load all the external movie clips/sound files
etc... before actually playing

At the moment i use the

If (_framesload
gotoandplay(3
else
gotoandplay (1

Its the looping preloader. How can i get this to load the external files too.

Here is the fla file:

target the external movie. say you are laoding it into a level, say, level 1.
if(_level1._framesloaded == _level1._totalframes){
gotoandplay(3)
else {
gotoandplay (1)
}

so much for genius :)

if(_level1._framesloaded == _level1._totalframes){
gotoandplay(3)
} else { //notice the } added, that was missing on both our code blocks
gotoandplay (1)
}
