scene preloader

[Geoff]

Hello

I have been experimenting with a site based on scenes.

The idea is that I can modularize the site to help me organize it.
My preliminary site works well.

What I would like to do now, is have a preloader for a particular scene (that contains a big JPG)

could someone please point me in the right direction

Thank you

Hey look, I am answering my own posts now !

I found out that getBytestotal and getBytesLoaded work on the scene that they are programmed into The preloader is now easy and obvious.

(Everything is easy and obvious when you know how)


if ( getBytesLoaded() == getBytesTotal() ) {
gotoAndStop("big_file", 2);

}

else

{

gotoAndPlay ("big_file",1);
}

Hope this helps another novice (like me)
