Flash :: Preloader For External Text File

Preloader External Text File With Images
Hi,
I need some tips if it is possible...
I am loading external text into textBox. That text file contain some text and <img src="images/image001.jpg"> etc.
Everything works just fine. I need to make preloader which will preload text file and all images from HTML tags. Trace gives me the size of a text file, not size of images.

//thx;

Including External Swf File With Preloader In Main Swf File
I'm creating a flash 3d website for a company. The idea is that there is one overall swf file - this holds the navigation and design. Once the user clicks on a button, it goes to frame 10, I have included the following script to load a swf file

loadMovie("deepbartesting.swf", maincontent);
this.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(movieClipName._currentframe==5){
movieClipName.stop();
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
}

my problem is that this file is around 3mb. I created a preloader with it, with the code

onClipEvent (load) {
total = _root.getBytesTotal();
} onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
loaded = _root.getBytesLoaded();
percent = int(loaded/total*100);
percen101 = ""+percent+"%";
gotoAndStop(percent);
if (loaded == total) {
_root.gotoAndPlay(2);
;
;
}
}

the preloader works, but instead of going to frame 2 of that swf file, it goes to frame 2 of the overall swf that holds the navigation. Does anyone know how to get around this so that it goes to frame 2 in the same swf file as the preloader?

Thanks for your help

Preloader For External Swf-file How?
Hello,

I am not very experienced with Flash. I have the following problem:
I have a swf-file(unfortunately not the fla-file as it was generated with swish). It has about 240kb. So I want to install a preloader with a bar, that shows the loading process and when it is 100% loaded the swf-file should start.
I would be glad if anyone could help me with this problem. My own actionscripting skills are too low for it.

Thanks in advance
Greetings

External File & Preloader
Hi, I am not sure if this is the right forum to ask...

But how do you load in external file swf that contains an image, that also shows the preloader waiting for it to load into the main swf? Like it shows on this site. http://www.jamesgood.net/

Thank you.

Preloader For External SWF File
I'm sure this question has been brought so many times, but I'm unable to find exactly what I want...

I have one huge central movie clip (I'll call it MAIN) and inside that one there is another movie invoked by one of the buttons from the MAIN. When second one is open on the screen, in the last frame I want to load another MC, but this time external MC. So, as soon as second animation is triggered, at the last frame I want my external MC to load.

No problems with that. I made an empty MC, named it CLIP1 and placed it on the last frame of my second MC (the one that's nested into MAIN). On the last frame, I added this line:

loadMovie("ExternalMovie.swf", CLIP1);

Everything is fine, and movie gets loaded once the last frame is hit, but the problem is, that ExternalMovie.swf is around 380kb (no problems here since I am on ADSL, but I don't want other people that are still on Dial-up to wait too long). I also added nice little preloader to the external movie, but I never see that preloader. There is always slight delay and until whole external swf file is loaded, I don't see anything... and I should see preloader showing process bar... I have to say, preloader works great in main movie, since I use exactly the same script... and also, I can see preloader when main movie is loading... but the problem is I never see preloader when I'm dowloading external movie.

Anyone has any ideas please ? It would be greatly appreciated !

Thanks in advance and everybody have a great day !

Cheers !

Loading An External Swf File (preloader)
Here's my problem. Not sure how to do this, i'm not the flash regular here, just filling in while we get a new guy.

I've made the 'preloading' animation into load.swf. Now what can I do, so that the cartoon, will play load.swf while cartoon.swf is downloaded by the user?

I'm thinking that I'll need to find out what code to use so that this will work. Basically cartoon.swf will run load.swf, and keep running it while it does like a math calculation to see if the last frame of the cartoon has loaded. If not, keep running the preload, otherwise run the cartoon.

Anyways, I've got that down, I just need to know the scripting for something like this.

Can anyone help with this?

Big thanks in advance.

External Jpg File Included In Preloader
Hey smart people,

i have a standard preloader for my main flash file.

I am putting a random function in for the background images so they cycle on site re-visits such as:

loadMovie("image" + random(10) + ".jpg", "_root.container");
}

The thing is... does the preloader incorporate this jpeg filesize in the 'getbytes' of my preloader for the complete swf file?

Hope I'm making sense...help appreciated

Preloader For A TRUE External File
okay.. i'm sure this is easy, but its giving me a headache!

Everyone knows how to code a preloader on the first frame of the external file that's being loaded... but how do you code a preloader for a movie that's not on the same timeline (i.e. the root's timeline)?

[F8] Need A Good Preloader For External .xml File
Hi,
I am new to actionscript and am currently using the following script to load 25 images into a movieclip container ("lgpicture") from an external .xml file. The problem is that each image loads individually and there is a long pause between viewing each image for the first time. Instead I would like, if possible, to use a preloader that will load all images at once, before any image is viewed with a percentage bar or something like that. I am unfortunately unable to compromise on the image size (some well over 500K) but one long pause in the beginning is much more favorable than pausing between each image. I would really appreciate any help I can get!!!

code:
lgpicture._x=0;
lgpicture._y=30;
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];
description = [];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
description[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
firstImage();
} else {
content = "file not loaded!";
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("images1lg.xml");
/////////////////////////////////////

/////////////////////////////////////
p = 0;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
filesize = lgpicture.getBytesTotal();
loaded = lgpicture.getBytesLoaded();
preloader._visible = true;
if (loaded != filesize) {
preloader.preload_bar._xscale = 100*loaded/filesize;
} else {
preloader._visible = false;
if (lgpicture._alpha<100) {
lgpicture._alpha += 10;
}
}
};
function firstImage() {
if (loaded == filesize) {
lgpicture._alpha = 0;
lgpicture.loadMovie(image[0], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[0];
lgpicture_num();
}
}
function lgpicture_num() {
current_pos = p+1;
pos_txt.text = current_pos+" / "+total;
}

Preloader Also Calculate External File
I have splitted my swf into two files, to make it start up quicker.
so i have an "importent swf" file and a "extra cool stuff swf".

My problem is that i have an preloader in scene 1 that shows a counter from 0-100 when it preload the "importent swf". When that´s loadet it goto scene 2.

In scene 2 i have a empty movie clip with an ActionScript:loadMovie("svaevende toej.swf","toej");
this is my "extra cool stuff swf" as is supposed to be loaded in the back.
My problem is that the preloader starts up again and show a new counter from 0-100 for the "extra cool stuff swf" file!!!!
Since i want it to load in the back without interrupting what people are dooing, i need help to stop the preloader after it has loaded the "importent swf".

Confused??? well just write and i will provide with so much info as i can!!

Percentage Preloader For External File
i'm loading a .swf into my main movie and the file i'm loading is kinda big. so i want a "loading" animation that gives the percentage of the file being loaded and not the percentage of the main movie...

i tried putting the getBytesLoaded stuff into the .swf being loaded but once the main movie starts to load it, it counts the bytes of the main movie (very small filesize) and not the file being loaded...

is anyone not confused enough to point me in the right direction?

THANKS!!!!

External File Preloader WITH Percentage
Anybody finished Claudio's preloader tutorial?? Great tutorial... preloader works fine for me. However, I tried tweaking it a bit and cant get a part to work. Maybe someone can suggest a fix. I'm pretty sure its a simple thing I'm not seeing. Basically, I adapted the design totally, but chose to display a percentage along with the animated "loading..." thing there.

One difference is that my buttons are located in the Transition movie clip and the loadText dynamic text field(where the percentage is displayed) is also in the Transition movie clip.

Here's the code I attached to Content movie clip:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
bytes_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;
_root.transition.loadText.text = Math.round(getPercent*100)+"%";
if (!loaded && this._url != _root._url) {
if (bytes_loaded == bytes_total) {
loaded = true;
_root.transition.gotoAndPlay("opening");
}
}
}

If you visit http://www.brendonblake.com you'll see the busted result.

For a deeper look the fla is downloadable at: http://www.brendonblake.com/bb7.fla

I've spent the past week trying different things and cant seem to fix it.

[F8] External Text Files Wont Load Into External Swf File...
Hi,

I'm making a Flash website in Flash 8 (mac).

Structure: There is 1 main file that loads external SWF files depending on what is clicked on.

One of the external SWF files loads its text from external text files. This works fine when viewing the SWF applet on its own. But when viewing as a whole site, the text doesnt appear. Very annoying.

I made that particular SWF on my mums computer running Flash MX 2004. The flash file itself uses the Scrollbar component from MX.

Could someone tell me why the text doesnt load in this scenario? It runs fine on its own, just not as an external SWF.

I've attached the files in question. Its a 200kb ZIP download. Do tell me if you need to know more.

Thanks

this.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(((_root.getBytesLoaded()+_root.bookMovie.getByt esLoaded())==

(_root.bookMovie._url!=this._url)){

[FMX] Including External File In Parent Preloader
Hello,

I'm trying to load a random background image into a flash movie but would like to have a preloader that covers both files. It seems that the file size of the external .jpg image is not added to its parent's movieclip until it has fully loaded, but by this time it is too late to be included in the parent clip's preloader.

Any thoughts?

External Swf File Does Not Load External Text

How To Format External Text File To Show In Three Separate Columns Through Text Area?
Hullo everyone!

Could anyone suggest a piece of advice to visualize the following idea?

I should like to import an external .txt file into flash and display it by means of a text area component, which would take the better part of the screen and be skinned to fit the rest of the page design. The text ought to be formatted by way of an external .css file. Images are optional.

I can do all this allright, but what I should like to have is the text formatted to be displayed in three separate columns. The idea for this naturally comes from the Flash version of the Macromedia Edge newsletter.

I should be most thankful if anyone cared to come up with a solution.

External Text Loaded Into Text Field Won't Change File Attached
I have 3 textfields in 3 different frames. Each text field is for a different section of my website. I want to keep all the code that works for 1 textfield and just change the URL that is loaded. I tried so many different ways. I don't get a error so I believe the URL is being cached somewhere. When I trace it It shows that the other text doc has loaded but the text field doesn't show any change. Is there away to reload/stop cache/delete a variable?

Loading HTML/Text From External Simple Text File…
To all the Flash Gurus:

Basically how do you do the above? I've gotten very small snipets of text to load from an external text file, but there was probably at maximum 50 characters. This is even after a long load time and a very fast connection (T1/off of the HD).

I'm trying to get this to work so that I don't have to update the flash files to update the text - or rather so that someone else can update them w/o me acting as a middle man except for special occasions. The best example, I think, of what I'm trying to do is www.spartamusic.com

Reading External Text File Into Movie Text Boxes
So I'm trying to read a simple text file into an array and then putting that text into the dynamic text boxes of 6 movie clips

the MC are instances of 'CategoryBox'. Each instance is name cat1, cat 2, so on.

In the parent movie file the dynamic text box instance is called 'catText' and variable 'catText'.

Code:
// load the text file for Titles Questions
this.loadVariables("title.txt");

//Lets get the game going
this.onEnterFrame = function(){

//Titles loads? FIRE!
if(titles!=null &&titleArray==null){
titleArray = titles.split(";"); //makes new_ARRAY into an array having values of strings separated by a semicolon
trace (titleArray);
//title generations
for (z = 0; z < titleArray.length; z++) {

this.cat[z].catText = titleArray[z];
}
}

}
now trace shows the titleArray is getting it's goods, but the text in the clips is "_level0.cat2.catText"

text files reads as such:
titles=blah;blah; so on

Auto Scrolling Dynamic Text From External Text File

var myInterval = setInterval(scrollUp, 500);
function scrollUp() {
_root.text_mc.textbox.scroll += 1;
}
...but there are two problems. One, the client says it's too jerky (as it's doing it a line at a time, rather than a smooth scroll), and two, the client would like it to be like a news scroller, meaning it automatically scrolls to the bottom of the text, and then the start of the text appears underneath and keeps scrolling continuously. I hope I've explained myself reasonably well!

If someone could help me out with these two things, I'd really appreciate it - cheers!

Text Effect On Multiple Objects From External Text File
Hello to all, I am having a lil problem and no one seems to be able to help me.

I am working on an interactive map, the map will contain different countries, each country is a movie. Each time the user click on a county it displays text in a dynamic field using a typewriter effect. (the text is imported from an external text file)

This is what I have so far:

var myMessage:String = "";
myData = new LoadVars();
a1_mc.onRelease = function(){

myData.onLoad = function(){
myMessage = this.a1message;
};
myData.load("texteffect.txt");

var i:Number = 0;

function autoWrite():Void {
if (i<=myMessage.length) {
monitor_txt.text = myMessage.substr(0, i)+"█";
i = i+1;
} else {
clearInterval(writingInterval);
}
}
// calling the function repeatedly with setInterval() method
var writingInterval:Number = setInterval(autoWrite, 20);

}

now this works Great for the one country “a1_mc”, but I have a lot of them: a1_mc, a2_mc, a3_mc, a4_mc……ect….., for the text it goes the same way: a1message, a2message, a3message….ect….

How can I set it up so it displays the right text for each country once clicked?
Keep in mind that I am using one dynamic field all of them.

Here is a sample of the project, i just started it so.....
cick on the top right country/sector of the map to see what i Mean (a1_mc)

[F8] External Text Preloader?
Hello,

I'm trying to stop a movie clip from moving into view once the text of an external file has been loaded... is there an easy way to achieve this?

(The text is actually a 'swap' from text1.txt to text2.txt, etc which might complicate things?!?)

Is there something as simple as this at all?

PHP Code:

text_total = _root.blog_text_holder.blog_text_box.htmlText.getBytesTotal();
text_loaded = _root.blog_text_holder.blog_text_box.htmlText.getBytesLoaded();
text_percent = Math.round((text_loaded/text_total)*100);
if (text_percent == 100) {
    //move the object
    }

Many thanks for any help in advance!

External Text File Used In Flash Text Field
hi,

I am working on an fla project that loads an external text file. The problem is, when I put a return into the external text file, I get a double return in the flash textfield. (I would like the double return in the flash textfield to take the single return from the external text file, and not create a double return.)

My question is, can I use a code in my external text file to make the flash textfield behave correctly. Or, is their some sort of flash setting that will fix the problem.

can you help?
thanks

Preloader For External Text File

How would I make my text files preload? as i have a site where the text takes longer to load than the page leaving it looking messy. Can this be done?
