i am trying to convert that to a regular preloader, for some reason, it does
not work ... any ideas???
// function to load an external .swf
function ploader() {
// swf file to load
loadMovieNum("bigfile.swf", 1);
// bar dimensions
var barWidth:Number = 100;
var barHeight:Number = 6;
// the progress bar
this.createEmptyMovieClip("pBar_mc", 9999);
var bar:MovieClip = pBar_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("bar_mc", 10);
bar.beginFill(0x2F84E4, 100);
bar.moveTo(0, 0);
bar.lineTo(barWidth, 0);
bar.lineTo(barWidth, barHeight);
bar.lineTo(0, barHeight);
bar.lineTo(0, 0);
bar.endFill();
// start the bar at 0 width
bar._xscale = 9;
// the bars stroke, make same color as bar for no stroke
var stroke:MovieClip = pBar_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("stroke_mc", 20);
stroke.lineStyle(0, 0xCCCCCC);
stroke.moveTo(0, 0);
stroke.lineTo(barWidth, 0);
stroke.lineTo(barWidth, barHeight);
stroke.lineTo(0, barHeight);
stroke.lineTo(0, 0);
// percent loaded in text versus graphic
pBar_mc.createTextField("label_txt", 30, 0, barHeight, 100, 21);
pBar_mc.label_txt.font = "silkscreen";
pBar_mc.label_txt.autoSize = "left";
pBar_mc.label_txt.selectable = false;
pBar_mc.label_txt.textColor = 0x2F84E4;
// center the progress bar on the stage
pBar_mc._x = (Stage.width/2 - pBar_mc._width/2);
pBar_mc._y = (Stage.height/2)
// preloading part
_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (_framesloaded < _totalframes){
// scales the progress bar as a percentage of frames loaded
tBytes = getBytesTotal();
bLoaded = getBytesLoaded();
percent = (bLoaded/tBytes)*100;
_root.pBar_mc._xscale = (bLoaded/tBytes)*100;
_root.pBar_mc.label_txt.text = percent & " % LOADED"
} else {
//plays the main movie and deletes preloader
play();
pBar_mc.unloadMovie();
clearInterval(myInterval);
}
}
}
// call the preloader
ploader();
// thats my code, stuck here :/ it loads the swf, but it never displays it,
but plays the mus
ic in it, and the progress bar and the text never show up ... :/
