RE: FLASH: One sound looping through several scenes?

[Gonzalez, Manuel (MCG) - CPC]

What exactly do you want to do?  Do you want the loop to start over as you

change scenes? Do you want the loop to play infinitely? 

 

To make the loop play seamlessly through all scenes, you need to create

another fla. file with the looped sound.  You load the sound swf. into a

level and reference it when needed via tell target.  You may also create a

button that stops and plays the loop.  If you want the loop to start over

when you shift scenes, you may accomplish this by using the same method as

above and by adding actionscript in the beginning of the scenes that target

the beginning of the loop.

The recipe:

sound Fla.  4 layers 5 keyframes


1st layer---actions-------frame1-blank keyframe with an action of stop

--frame 2 "labeled start"with an action of stop----frame 3 "labeled off"

frame4-actions stop all sounds---frame5 action of stop


2ndlayer----sound-------frame2 - keyframe with looped sound--remember to add

9999 to loop option 


3rdlayer----button-------frame 2 - button symbol

with action of on(mouse event)go to and play (label off)


4thlayer------------frame 3- button symbol

with action of on(mouseevent)go to and play start

  You may e-mail me offline if you need more advice.....

Subject: FLASH: One sound looping through several scenes?



Is it possible to loop a single sound through several consecutive scenes

(without the sound stopping)?


I have a Flash movie that plays continuously from scene to scene, and the

client decided he wants the intro music to play through all the scenes. Ugh.


Possible or not? Thanks.
