I've been tearing my hair out for hours now.
I've watched countless tutorials on youtube and searched for tutorials.
All i want is a preloader to a moive, is a small animation that spins round. I don't want a percentage bar or anything of that sort, due to my total incompetence with AS3 i can't modify anything i find to work.
Please Help!
Can you upload your FLA here so that we may understand it and help you out!
First ask yourself the question, are you able to use two swf files.
If yes, then you can make an external preloader that you can use for all of your stuff without worrying about making a new one for another project.
If no, you need to slide EVERY frame in your timeline 1 frame forward.
Then you need to find a preloader tutorial and just take the basic components like;
if (loaded){
start the move
}
if(loading){
do nothing but wait
}
if(precentloaded == total blah blah blah){
loaded=true
}
that should be really all of the things you need, go back to one of those "pull out your hair" tutorials and take some of the code.
so i've tried a few new things and failed.
Also i seem to have broken the as i was using to make my preloader image spin by putting in preloader code any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

Anyone? I'm still stuck!
When I downloaded file from the link, it downloaded as *.doc file. I changed the extension to FLa and when tried opening it in Flash CS3 it said 'unexpected file format'. Have u edited ur FLA in CS4 ? Please 'Save As' FLA to CS3 format and reupload as FLA, not as a doc!
opps, apologies!
Any help you can offer would be much appreciated.

still a problem, if anyone can help?
Hey there,
I tried to download and again it downloaded as *.doc file. Anyways, after changing the extension to .fla it worked in Flash. When I try to run this FLA it gives me a lots of errors and warnings. I think there might be a few classes/*.as files associated with it. To work ahead I would need a fully functional working FLA of yours.
