Preloader doesn´t start from 0%

[spighita]

Hello:
My preloader starts after 5%, I have posted my fla (flash 5)

Thanks in advance for anyone who tries to help.

[kode]

you shouldn't worry about that... the movie is just too small =)

[spighita]

I just created that cause the real swf file is 400 kbs. I justed created it copying the same scene. Well left out lots of stuff cause the problem is there. The other works OK. You see it really starts after 40%, that means that the user must load 160 kbs before seeing anything. And the file depends on someother swf. So people might think the page is not working or not loading unless you have a broadband.

You´d have to wait around 15 seconds before you saw the percentage loader.

use a swf loader to dinamically load the main movie.
with a small swf with just the loader objects your problem is solved ;)

[spighita]

How is that?

If I understand I should make a swf file to load the main movie. If that so.
Can you give me a push.

Thank you very much on the input.

[Guig0]

coz the ability to read/write binary is spooky!

only machines should do that now... ::shudders::

[kode]

and i agree... i really do =)
i learnt binary a really long time ago ;)

[spighita]

I can´t get it to work.

Can anyone post a fla please............ the only thing I want is for the swf to show from the 0% to the other part is missing.

Big headaches for the others to see from 0% to 30% preloading.

AHHHHHHRRG

[Guig0]

i´m sorry, but i don´t have a server to test a dynamic preloader (doesn´t work local).

you may go with an easier way... lostinbeta solution works great in this case. check it out: here! (http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10344&perpage=15&highlight=dynamic%20preloader&pagenumber=1)

I have posted this on another forum and got something interesting. He said that maybe I´d be loading components. That´s what loads first.

[Guig0]

yep, that´s true. and you never mentioned this...

[spighita]

What part of it didn´t I mention.?

[Guig0]

that you´re using components... or mybe you did and i overlooked...:-\

[spighita]

well you see, I never installed any. So components are pretty new for me.

I don´t know how to look for them, or how to uninstall them. If that is the solution. Boy that would be good news.

[spighita]

I have bought MX and found out something. MX is quite new to me so some keyboard shortcuts changed. Just gotta get used to it. But about the help I found out this.

When I imported F5 to MX I found out that the buttons say Flash UI components when seeing the script I was using. Does that have anything to do? Then If I do the buttons on MX that won`t appear.
