Hey all,
is it possible to load something thats in you library, as a external movie.
or is it possible to "preload" a external .swf?
thanks

Hi iloveitaly.
You cant preload something from you library becouse it all loads when your flashfile loads. The best thing is to load external movieclips.

check out loadMovie

I think roady means load an external swf file. If you build a preloader into a swf and then load that into another swf you'll see the preloader.
