RE: FLASH: sound in movieclip problem

[NetworkAuto]

I used that method also and had the same exact problem. Here is how I worked

around it:


First I put the sound mc in the first frame of the movie ( Im not sure if

this is required, but the mc must be BEFORE any of the frames which the

buttons point to). Then I added another frame to the beginning (1st fr) of

the sound mc with everything but the sound. Frame two is still sound on and

frame three is still sound off.


Now put a tell target on the same frame or any frame thereafter on the main

timeline. The tell target points to the sound movie clip and tels it to

either play, goto frame 2, or whatever depending on how you have modified

the mc.


Now when it seems to think its passing the movie clip there is no sound in

the first frame so it wont start up again unless you press the button. Its

not perfect and there is probably a better way to do this, but it works.

Hope this helps.
