Circular Animation Preloader - Dots and Reflection

pastar, I check example and read about its functionality now i undersand what did you mean. I must say, sorry but this is not that kind of file, but is similar. Difference between my preloader and one you provided as example is that:

- my preloader is created to be put in your project (flash site for example) and than it preload external content by listening some cilp in which content is loaded. For example, gallery where you load external images. So you just put it on scene, and set target, and than when you load different images, this preloader activates every time and preload it.

- jaredly2 preloader is more content loader (some kind of extended preloader), and it loads and preload content in itself. So you can put it in html, and set what to load.

Anyway, i am glad we clear this, and i hope you will find my preloader useful for your projects.

Thanks for buying. flashark.

Hi FlaShark,

I have been able to make it work for loading my main swf. But I would also like to use it for loading of external swf in the main one. But in a movie clip named “website”.

So in frame 440 (of movie clip “website” ) I have a movie called “container”, the movie clip “preloader” and the folling code

stop();

var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader(); var picListenerbject = new Object(); mcl.addListener(picListener);

picListener.onLoadInit = function(mc:MovieClip) {

mc._width = 240; mc._height = 210;

};

var nextImage:Number = 0; var contents:Array = [“Photography.swf”,”img2.jpg”,”img3.jpg”];

Where I would like my external swf “photography” to go in container. To reach frame 440 I have a button with the following script.

on (release) { gotoAndStop(440); }

trace(nextImage)
trace("loadContent/"+contents[nextImage]);

mcl.loadClip("loadContent/"+contents[nextImage], container);

if(nextImage>=contents.length-1)
    nextImage=0;
else
    nextImage++;

Because the code are in my movie “website” I think I might have to use some _root. or something no ?

Please help as I would really like to get this to work !

Hi wippermann, thanks for buying. From what you described it looks like everything is ok. Do you get some error?

Check if you have this line on preloader clip (F9 for Action Panel).

this.contentTarget = _parent.container;

And check if you called movieclip “container”;

You can sand me your fla so i can check and sugest what could cause problem.

Great preloader. Works perfectly. FLashark was fantastically helpful in helping me debug a small glitch in my usage. Absolutely recommended!

Thank you for your help Flashark !!

I will prep a simple FLA to send you so you see my structure ! Where / how can I send it ?

Also, loader works like magic when on the first frame. But when I put it in an termidiary scene when loaed it send my movie back to frame one scene 1 and I don’t know where to change that ?

In other words how do I point it to a specific scene when loaded ?

Thanks for everything ! great job !

Hi FlaShark

Is it possible to use a flv animation instead of the regular dots? I tryed to add a small flv plasma effect inside the preloader mc, just below the Dotts frame, but the loader didn’t work. Is there a way to make it accept the flv mc? I’m going to use this loader to load an external swf file

Thanks

Gil
