@laorit hi. im having the same problem too...the movie loads fine. no errors...just that i don't see my preloader, all i see are few dots loading....did you happen to get the solution to your problem?

[suejan3]

@tutvid Instead of gotoAndPlay(2) i created a function to load in an external swf. however, why is it, when i test movie and stimulate download, my preloader don't appear, but 5 dots appear instead...but after, the movie loads in fine...

HOW DO I GET ACTION SCRIPT ????????

[DragonoxForce1]

very good tut but when i played it my Bytestotal/toload did not show up and i got a msg in my output saying i needed to embed font, so all i did was click on the font box and hit embed and chose number/lower case because it needed to load numbers and the Bytes text that was defined in the Script and it worked. i use CS5.5 btw so maybe its a little different i dunno but i managed to get it to work

anyone else also suffer this or maybe i missed something in the tut
