FLASH: load mc

[Keith Salisbury]

Nadia,

Best thing to do is set up an array with the names of you MCs like:


Set Variable: "mc1" = "movie1.swf"

Set Variable: "mc2" = "movie2.swf"

Set Variable: "mc3" = "movie3.swf"

.

.

Set Variable: "mc49" = "movie49.swf"

Set Variable: "mc50" = "movie50.swf"


Then randomly generate a number between 1 and 50 and 


Set Variable: "randomnumber" = Random(50)


Then use the random number to pick your movie clip:


Load Movie (Eval("mc"&randomnumber,0)


hope this helps

Subject: FLASH: load mc


hi there

i am standing in front of a quite big problem (about 1.2 mb)...


i have 80 mc. each of them  contains 2 bitmaps. i don't need to show them

all at once,actually i want to load randomly 5 mc. but how do i randomly

load a mc? i  know how to load a .swf, that is not a problem, so my question

is:
