Have you tried loading them into movie clips instead of levels? I
generally try staying away from levels when at all possible. Also,
you can use the movie clip loader class to make the movie clip loads
sequential, loading the next movie after the previous movie generates
an onLoadInit event. Third, you can use setInterval to delay the
initial load a little bit so that it is not loading during the
initial startup of the projector exe.

At least somebody helps me...
I posted my problem here several times, about swf's and big loads in
projector but no solutions. Some helpful and patient words, but i was
beleaving i was going crazy (everybody tolds me here that it wasn't
a normal
success)
I posted my question in Creative Cow:
------------
Hello. I posted my problem several times in several forums (but
this is my
first post here)
I haven't found a solution and the time for my project is running
so fast
(i'm working hard, mornings, evening, nights, but no solutions for
this
problem)
The Scene:
i'm programming a Projector-Flash Project that loads contents in
local. It
uses _levels, AS2, and a MovieClipLoader to load contents in each
_level
through navigation in the app.
There is some big swf (5Mb) to load, but size must not be a problem
in a
local-project (Kiosk CD or DVD project)
The Problem:
when i Load the swf's in the appropiate _level, the previous _level
goes
frozen (even a simple animation of "time to wait" during load).
I also tried a preloader technique in the swf that is being loaded
with two
scenes, but the animation of the first scene also is frozen until the
complete load is made.
The Cause:
I think the cause of the problem has the following reason...
When i load in remote (flash web projects), there is a portion of
memo/processor free. So i can make anything during this time.
When i load in local, all the resources are taken to make the load, so
anything is frozen till the load is complete.
DESPERATE:
I've tried all kind of methods (Preloaders, MovieClipLoader (It
only gives
me 0% and 100% in events to control load), and so on... no solutions.
Can anybody solve this problem?
Thank u in advance

In Creative Cow one person post me the following:
----------
My experience with the projector is it doesn't do a progressive
download
like SWFs do on the internet. I've never used the projector to
dynamically
load SWFs, but I've made projectors of very large SWFs (20-75MB)
and it
seems to me that when you run them, they need to load the full file
into
memory before the projector app starts running (except for FLVs,
which still
seem to stream fine). It wouldn't surprise me if it were the same
for the
dynamically loading assets, which would only be an issue when you
have large
files. The fact that it freezes things that are already loaded and
running
is somewhat surprising to me, but not entirely unexpected.
I'm still with the same problem. But i hope that it helps to people
to NEVER
try to build a big application developed in flash and actionscript
(even
Flash 8) without considering that advertisement...
thanks to all people...
