How to load a ekstern swf, but it shall not start at frame 1

[mak_B]

I have a big project, with a lot of moviess. Now I have to jump to another movie, where I have made som frame labels with a stop action.

My problem is that I can make it jump to the new movie, if I use this code below, but then it starts at frame 1. How do I make it start fx in frame 10 ?

on (release) {
    loadMovieNum("mbi3_vestjylland.swf", 1);
}

I dont know how to make it jump to a scene fx. at frame 10

I have tried to use this code, but it dos´nt work (I have placed a label called lemvig2 and I want the movie to start there and not in frame 1

gotoAndPlay("vestjylland", "lemvig2");

So my problem is, how to jump to a new movie and start fx in frame 10 ??

Try this on the button

on (release) {
whatFrame = 10;
loadMovieNum("mbi3_vestjylland.swf", 1);
}

Then in frame 1 of the mbi3_vestjylland.swf movie add this code:

if(_root.whatFrame == 10){
this.gotoAndPlay("lemvig2");
}

I have done exactly what you wrote, but it only plays frame 1 in the loaded movie.....hmmm

Sometimes framelabels don't work right, especially in loaded movies. Try changing the frame code:

if(_root.whatFrame == 10){
this.gotoAndPlay("lemvig2");
}

To this:

if(_root.whatFrame == 10){
gotoAndPlay(10);
}

maybe change the button code too:

on (release) {
_root.whatFrame = 10;
loadMovieNum("mbi3_vestjylland.swf", 1);
}
