preloader problemo

[cookie]

I have a tiny problem with lostinbeta's preloader. I have a preloader scene and then a main scene and the problem is that on the preloader scene i have quite a large image and when you enter the site nothing appears not even the loadBar till the large image has loaded! Is it possible to solve this so that the large image is displayed and avoid this "paus"??

Thanks:P

I didn't test, but from what I can tell it is because you contain your large image in the preloader scene as well.

Since the large image is contained in the same frames as the preloader code, the image ends up loading before the preloader is run.

OK so can i solve it without having an extra scene for the image? what should i do?

Put the image in there AFTER the preloader.

In your example you have the image in the preloader scene on frames 1 and 2 (same frames as your preloader) and you have the image in the second scene.

To preload the image you will have to place the image in at least frame 3 of the preloader scene.
