Hi Dave!

>"End Frame is Loaded"


This looks like you are saying that if the end frame is loaded, go to and
stop at that end frame. Therein lies the problem, I believe.

What you should have your "loader" do, in a 3 frame case, is the following:

Frame 1 - Nothing, just label it FirstFrame
Frame 2 - If Frame LastFrame (Make "LastFrame" your LABEL for the (duh) last
frame)
Go To and Play (Wherever you want, outside of this loop)
Frame 3 - Go To and Play "FirstFrame"

That should help. Hope I didn't get too confusing.

If I did happen to jumble, it's what happens when I just wake up and try to
spew tutorial-like. Just email me and I'll send you a really easy to
follow tutorial on it.
