Load/Unload Movie



How can I tell a movie to play an "exit" animation (fade out, etc) and THEN load the selected swf in its place instead of the unloading movie just disappearing as soon as the other swf is selected. Thanks for any help.

Load, Unload, Load... Will The Movie Need To Download Again?
hi,

I have a quick question about loadMovie and unloadMove...

If I load an external movie (section 1), lets say its 200k, and then unload it when the user moves to another section (section 2).

When returning to section 1, when the external movie is called to load, will it need to redownload? Or is it saved in some type of cache area?

any help or a point to a resource would be great.

thanks,
alex

Load/ Unload Movie - Please Help
I'm using Flash to make an interactive version of my 3D animation, but my problem is that I'm running out of memory in the end of the animation when I play it. So I think it might be a solution to cut it up into five peaces and then load them when needed. What do you think or are there any better ways to do it??

Load - Unload Movie
hi,
i have a movie wichch ois supposed to load another movie when it starts, here i have defined a frame script

loadMovie ("text.swf", "text");

where text.swf is my movie and text is the movie clip which i have defined.

In one button i have this script

on (release) {
unloadMovie ("text");
unloadMovie ("story2");
loadMovie ("story1.swf", "story1");
}
and in the second button

on (release) {
unloadMovie ("story1");
unloadMovie ("text");
loadMovie ("story2.swf", "story2");
}

while my movie does load, the animation defined in the swf file does not play. It has an autoplay button which when clicked here does not play the file. But in the swf if played individually all the button works fine.Could u tell me where the error lies?

My play button is in a movie clip(play-stop) embedded in another movie clip(i.e.-button-movie clip-movie clip-stage).
the button has this action script for play
on (release) {
tellTarget ("_root.text") {
play ();
}
}
on (release) {
gotoAndStop (2);
}

and this for stop
on (release) {
tellTarget ("_root.text") {
stop ();
}
}
on (release) {
gotoAndStop (1);
}

Help With Load And Unload Movie
Can someone please give me or point me to some sound advice on how to correctly use Load and Unload Movie.

I am trying to load mine into Dummy MC's but they are getting placed in funny places all over the screen

I have created a button and one MC in the main timeline.
The MC is a box called Loader.
The button loads external SWF into target Loader.

When you press the button the SWF loads into the bottom right corner of the screen.

How the heck do you get this thing to work properly, Am tearing my hair out here !!!

Help please....

Load/Unload Movie Help
Hey there

I'm designing a site in Flash 5, its going pretty well so far. I'm struggling with load / unload movie though.

I read the turorials on FK, but i'm still not quite getting what to do.

Heres what i'm doing.

I have my buttons set up, and Onmouseover for a button takes you to another frame in the movie where i have an animation clip.

At the moment i have Onmouseout set to take me back to the first frame again.

What i want to have is an effect movie that happens on MouseOver and then another that happens on mouse out.

Like a bar that slides across on MouseOver and slides Back on mouseout.


So what i want is to make the two movies (one for slide in one for slide out) then use the load /unload command to load them on mouse over/out.

I'm confused about what i have to do to make a target place for the movies? I know where i want them on the scene (position) what do i have to make? Do i have to make a box, or frame or something to load the movies into?

Basically how to make the movie load into a specific place. This is probably an easy one, i understand the command, i just dont understand how to create the place for the movies to be loaded to.


Thanks for any help

Load Movie And Unload All Others?
Hi~
I've been using the load movie function to play movies from my main movie and that works just fine.

The only problem is when the loaded movie is running and I mouse over it, it responds to other load movie buttons that are behind it. These buttons of course work and activate and then are running when I close the original loaded movie.
Is there a way around this?
Thanks for your help!

Load /unload Movie
If I load an swf into a MC, and then want another one to load in that same MC, should I unload the first one first, or is there no difference? Ive tried to unload the movie already there, but I cannot seem to get it right. Ive tried it like this(on a button)

on(release){
_root.contents.unloadMovie("portfolio.swf");
}

Am I all wrong or what??

Movie Load & Unload
Hi guys, I got 2 problems here.

1. I can't seem to load the movie using loadMovieNum( etc etc) to load and start in frame 2. I got it to load but can't get it to load at frame 2.

2. I also can't seem to get the other clip to wait for the movie i loaded to finish before going to the next scene.

Is there anyway way around. I've tried using if loops and telltarget but my syntax seems to stuff up all the time. Also i look all over the tuts in stuff and can't find a thing.

ANY GURUs out there who can help

Load/Unload Movie
Hello all,

Here is my problem that I REALLY need help with.

I have created a virtual tour of my house...and to minimize SIZE for publication and quick load from the web...I created EACH room with it's own swf...the problem I'm running into is this:
As I click on a new room, the loadMovie ("room.swf", _top, GET) simply loads the new one on top of the old one...and the old one is still running...slowing down the load time...is there a way for me to write something like...

onMouse(remove);{
unloadMovie (previousroom.swf, etc...)
loadMovie (newroom.swf, etc...)
}

Where "previousroom.swf" automatically unloads the current movie while loading the new one...? Can this be done?

I'm not fluent and a MASTER at Flash MX, so speak laymen to me please.

Load And Unload Movie Help
Hi,
I have an intro movie that uses load movie for the five main movies. My problem is that once I'm into the main movie and I click between the other main movies it shows a split second of the intro movie, which I don't want and I can't understand why it would if the other movie has been loaded. This is the actionscript I'm using

on (release) {
stopAllSounds();
loadMovieNum("workflow.swf", 1);
}


any help is appreciated

Load/unload Movie
so here is the dilly.

i have movie1.swf and at the end it loads movie2.swf into level 5, and movie1.swf is chillin at a stop script.

movie2.swf ends and chills ata stop script, and loads movie3.swf into level 10, and I would like to unload the movie1.swf and movie2.swf right after it loads movie3.swf.

so i put a blank mc on the first frame of movie3.swf that says

onClipEvent (load) {
unloadMovieNum (0);
unloadMovieNum (5);
}

movie1.swf was never assigned a level so it is level 0 right?
i'm thinking it will unload the last two movies, then continue on with 3, but it just hangs there.

i know this is a probably a dumb question for you smaaat people but please help a retarded brutha out!

Load / Unload Movie Again
I am trying to build a small site from multiple swf files - so the title page loads the main page with a menu - and then from there each menu click loads a new page - which overlays all of the other page and has more options on - ultimately you will be able to flick through all the pages - but to hangle levels properly I guess I need to make each new page the root and unload each previous movie....

How do I do that?

Is this the right way?

Have I explained this properly?!!! Is it late?! (er..yes!)

Cheers !

Load/unload Movie
I have a flash site I have created and i have several pages. I have it so that when a person viewing the site clicks on a button the new page loads where the old page is. Basicly the center of the page is what changes out the buttons and some images stay the same. I have an issue though the feature seems to work only half way. When the button is release the new page comes up but the old page stays as well, I am not sure what I am doing wrong this is the code I am using on the button.


}
on (release) {
unloadMovieNum(1);
loadMovieNum("ts.swf", 1);
}

I also tried:

}
on (release) {
unloadMovieNum(main);
loadMovieNum("ts.swf", 1);
}

The second code blanked the screen but never loaded the new swf. the whole screen was blank.

Load/unload Movie?
Hey- developing a site for my World of Warcraft guild, and have a question about what I thought would be simple.

I have a background MC which auto loads the navigation MC at the top. When you click "home" it loads a newsscroll.swf like it should, but I have a button in that MC that I want, when people click it, to go to another MC that I made, replacing the newsscroll.swf MC.

I have it all working fine when I test it in the Flash environment, but on the web it isn't working right. The "home" button loads newscroll.swf, but I want the picture on the top right of newscroll.swf, as well as the guides->zones button in the navigation part to load an MC in the main area, but it's not doing it.

Here is the code i am using:
on (press) {
unloadMovieNum(1);
loadMovieNum("westfall.swf",1);
}


and here is a link http://www.tgsguild.com/bg.html

what am i doing wrong?

(F8) Should I Use Load/unload Movie, Or?
Hi, I'm trying to set up a portfolio site:

www.emilkara.com

I'm planning to have full resolution images for each page to be displayed but I'd like bring them in one at a time (or twoat a time) when a person gets to the right page and I'd do that, I imagine, using external movies with preloaders. So when you flip through the pages of the portfolio, two movies will be loaded, one for the left and one for the right page.

My question is: What would be the proper way to do this, how do I unload the movies once a person navigates to a different page, where would the code for loading the movies go and if it isn't too much trouble, can someone post some sample code of how it needs to be set up. I'll research it and find a way to do it. I just need to be pointed in the correct direction.

I appreciate all the help.

Cheers

Unload/load Movie
I have a test flash website (im just playing around with it). Now on a movie instance i have a empty movie clip named 'content' which i load external movies on.

In that movie instance i have another movie instance within that which is an animated navigation bar.

So it will be like:


navigation bar
^^
content area
^^
MAIN MOVIE


On the navigation bar link i am trying to make sure that when a button is clicked, a new movie loads on the 'content' instance.

Currently i use:

Code:

ActionScript Code:
loadMovie("content_name.swf","content");

However, when it comes to the navigation bar i try:

Code:

ActionScript Code:
on(release) {
unloadMovie("content");
}
... but the above codes does not unload the content movie.


So then i try:

Code:

ActionScript Code:
on(release) {
_root.unloadMovie("content");
}
The above unloads the whole swf file so i end up with blank screen.


Then i went on to...
Code:

ActionScript Code:
on(release) {
_parent.unloadMovie("content");
}
... the above just unloaded the navigation bar.






The main purpose of this is to unload the current movie on the 'content' movieclip, and load a new movie. When i try to overwrite this by adding a new movie on the 'content' movieclip, all that happens is the new movie is overlaping the old one. So its like two movies on top of each other. This is not what i want.

I have also tried:


ActionScript Code:
on(release) {
content.unloadMovie();
}


Any suggestions?

How Do I Unload This Movie And Load A New One?
I have a movie that I want to load and then after the user interacts with it I want this movie to unload and swap out a replacement movie in the same level (level_1) and also load another movie in level_10. The problem I'm having is that parts of this movie remain in level one even after it has been replaced by a new movie in the same level (level_1). Does anyone have any thoughts on how to totally swap out this movie so parts of it don't remain? Below is the code. _root.V is the hittest that will cause the loadmovie action.

Load And Unload Movie
with the load movie command can i load a movieclip or do i have to load a swf file????

and if its possible to load movieclips with it what how should i write in path?
thanks in advance for the help

Load Movie & Unload Movie With A Large Amount And Gotoplay(2)
working on a website and i stuck on a sort of problem. and i hope someone can give me an advise about it.
trying to explain this as clear as i can.

i have a bar where i want to load different movieclips in.
when i load one movie clip called for example: concert1.swf i want the other movie clip called concert2.swf gotoandplay(2).
these movieclips get loaded from hitarea's in a different part from the site.
these say:
tellTarget ("_root.frontmovieclip.concert1") {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
if you select an other button it says :
tellTarget ("_root.frontmovieclip.concert1") {
gotoAndPlay(6);
}
tellTarget ("_root.frontmovieclip.concert2") {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}

this all will work fine. the problem is i have 42 concerts. so this would mean i would have to tell each hit area an entire list of 42 telltargets that would go play frame 6 or 2 if i want them in random order.

now i was thinking is there a way that if you press concert1 that it load that movie and tell anyother concert that is already there to go play 6.

so that i don't need 42 lines but only 2.
something like:
tellTarget ("_root.frontmovieclip.concert2") {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
tellTarget ("_root.frontmovieclip.variableconcert") {
gotoAndPlay(6);
}
and that in concert2 it can say it should go to the variableconcert when it's done playing.

you can check what i mean at http://exuo.tripod.com/poging3.html (past concerts, deftones)

hopefully someone can give me some advise and if you need more info please ask.

Load And Unload Movie Questions
I am fairly new to this.. so don't beat me down too severely!! :-) but... here's my problem...

I have created a button within movie X to load movie Y. This works perfectly. However, I tried to create an unload movie button (action/unload movie) in movie Y -- but, you guessed it, it does not work.. in fact it does nothing!

Both movies are in the same directory.

Ideally, I want to unload movie Y and return to a specific frame in movie X.

Can someone help me make this work?

Thanks!!!!

Load/unload Movie Command
can someone help me plz

is it possible to use the load movie command to load a movie into specific place within a flash movie,
ie if the main movie is 1024x768, is it possible to load another movie within a space within that main movie at say x=800, y=300, without it replacing the main movie so you can see both at the same time??

any help would be much appreciated

Hello all,

Please can you help me stupid situation?
Basically all I wan to do is to open a new swf in a new window. But not a normal explorer window, just like a flash player that shows no explorer buttons. ( as though you have just clicked the .swf icon and just the flash player opens.)
I am using Flash 5 but would also like to use this method on some of my flash 4 projects so help with both would be real nice.

I have seen some Java script examples and think it can be done with a load/unloadmovie script or Fscommand (see I have no idea what I am on about) but to real honest I am a designer not a script man, so any help for this simple task would be greatly appreciated.

Please could anyone email me the tips at pav@inc-recordings.com or post a message.

Thanks

Load/Unload Movie Problem
I basically get the gist of it but i have a few problems getting to all work properly.

1: I don't really understand the levels aside from the main movie having to be on level 0.

2: unloading a movie and loading a movie in the same action is that possible? I've tried several different ways but couldn't get it to work right with the mouse press and mouse release actions on the load/unload movie actions.

any help would be appreciated. i'm starting to get the hang of it but man it's just a little frustrating when you can't find the answers to your questions in the tutorials.

Load / Unload Movie Problems...
Hi !
I've made some load movie in a swf, the files I load are streaming swf, I load them with that script :
on (release) {
clim.unloadMovie();
son.unloadMovie();
son.loadMovie("http://p.o.r.n.free.fr/media/climaxDSL.swf");
}
First I clear the stage, next I clear the clip that receive the external swf, and next I load the swf.
It works fine a couple of times but after a while the loading begin to slow down, and finally the swf won't load... It's like the streaming don't stop even the movie clip is unload and reduce the bandwith for the next swf loading.
You can see the test site at :
http://p.o.r.n.free.fr
it's the "medias" page, "streams" ...
Thanks.

Flash Load/unload Movie
Another question: I have built our website navigation in flash...its a virtual bar. Currently the file size is about 330 but I would like to make it smaller so people that are on 56k can get in alittle faster. I tried to separate the scenes into their own movies and then have it so when you click on the arrows in the movies load the the next movie...that worked good but the only problem is that when you go to the next movie, the previous movies buttons are still there but not seen (phantom buttons) Does anyone have any ideas around this? I have more things I want to put in our navigation but I need to get past this problem first.

P.S. : Using Flash 4

Load / Unload Movie Actionscript HELP
In FLASH 4 is it possible to use the load movie action to direct a user to a specific label or scene in a movie from another one?

For example,

2 movies: home.swf and work.swf

in home.swf, there are 2 labels in one 1 scene. labels are called "normal" and "contact"

situation: when work.swf is loaded, from there, the user clicks on a menu item called "contact". This animation is within the file home.swf, labeled "contact" on the timeline.

how can I script the action to make it load home.swf and ALSO bring the user to that particular label?

Load/ Unload Movie Question
In my movie I have 4 buttons that each load a movie...


Button#1
on (release) {
loadMovie("movie1.swf", "targetmc");
}

Button #2
on (release) {
loadMovie("movie2.swf", "targetmc");
}

Will these automatically unload the previous movie or should I have an unload command? When I convert to a projector and burn on cd the first movie I load works fine but everyone after that is slooooooooo.

Thanks for any help.
