FLASH: Sophisticated Preload II.

[Ujvary, Bela Istvan]

Hi,


Thank everyone for yesterdays answers. As I was continously thinking, ( Am

I great or what?) here are my additions to the subject of sophisticated

preload:


According to Your contribution > preload sequences displaying what is

actually downloaded are evidently lying about it and they only faking it to

arouse a secure feeling in the viewers.


OK. I have an idea by which a kind of "Sophisticated Preload" (All rights

reserved. :) ) can be achieved. But the whole idea is based on the

assumption that a flash movie is loaded frame-by-frame and an actual sound

/ symbol / etc. is loaded with the frame first referencing to it. If so, then:


What if, to the very start of the movie -just after the preload frames-, I

create a frame where I put all the sounds in, and another with all the

symbols. So that I can check if these frames are loaded. (Loading sounds,

loading symbols, and the rest that remains could be called "interface".) If

all of them are loaded, the preload sequence simply skips these frames (Go

to and Play ...).


Am I right? Is the foundation regarding the loading method (flash file

format > item sequence?) is correct or I can flush the whole thing and

bugger off with my annoying ideas?


Yours,


Silver
