I would like to do some homework, but not sure where to start to get the best answer.
Situation: Flash MX, AS, OSX 10.4.2 loading multiple SWFs in sequence as user demand, each SWF containing about 10-15 jpgs (436x327), nothing fancy Each SWF is the same, just different folder level, where I use loadMovie>10 clips, then swapDepths+alpha from 100 to 0 for transitions. -?-simple preloader -?-benefits of offscreen or mc._visible = false -?-backward compatible to player 5 if possible -?-Does setMask() speed up or slow down showing jpgs -?-Need to read about caching. Safari activity window shows that browser cache does not seem to be used. Same jpg file name creates a fresh download event. Example: same jpg name for all 10 loadMovie() = 10 downloads. -?-I assume that FlashPlayer 8 is required for PNGs, etc to be used by loadMovie. Is that correct? Thanks for saving me some precious development time this week. Very tight schedule.
