unloading " #include "mp3Player.as" "

[mauriceamadeus]

hi,

As my title indicates, I need to figure out how to unload the song on a certain keyframe of my movie.

It loads for the main menu, but as I move to a specific frame (call it frame 2) I would like to unload it, but even if i get rid of the action script on frame 2 it still plays the song, ... problem is frame 2 contains a movie with it's own music..

is there a command such as
#disclude "mp3Player.as"

thanks for the help!

Can you post your code?

[mauriceamadeus]

well the code is saved as a .as file

so in my movie clip the only code I use is: #include "mp3Player.as"
soo.. I was hoping to find out how to basicaly undo the 'include' command.. If it would help you I could upload the .as files, but I'm not sure if they are connected to my problem

Well, I just meant that you could just copy and paste the code from the as file, but it doesn't really matter.

I think there's a command called "stopAllSounds" or something like that. Give that a whirl.

You could also add a conditional to the MP3player.as file so that it only plays if certain conditions are true. For instance:

if(toggler == 1)
{
    call the function that plays the music;
}
else
{
     do nothing;
} 

Then, you could set the "toggler" variable inside that AS file as ONE to start with and once you move to the second frame of the timeline, you can have the timeline set the toggler variable as ZERO and run the stopallsounds command. That might work for you.

You can't disclude an included as file. Using the #include directive actually tells the compiler "Take all the code in that file over there and shove it all in here", so it gets included inside the swf at compile time, it's not loaded dynamically while the swf is running. Try doing what Taidaishar said, I just wanted to clear this up for you so that you know what that piece of code does.
