movieclip loader destroying game

[neomaximus2k]

Hey guys, hope you can help me on this one I need to create a single flash movie that will then load up another flash file (a game)

Now I have the flash loader working great, I pass the filename to it and it loads up the correct game, however there is one small problem (well not really small big but anyways) you cant use the keyboard to control the game anymore

I have tried searching for a fix to this but everywhere tells me to put the keyboard functions into the flash loader itself and that isn't an option as the flash loader file will be loading up multiple different games depending on what the users wants to view.

So my question is this... How can I get my event listeners working again.

Thanks in advance!

stop();

var myMCL = new MovieClipLoader();//create an instance of MovieClipLoader 
myMCL.onLoadStart = function (targetMC)
{
        var loadProgress = myMCL.getProgress(targetMC);
}
myMCL.onLoadProgress = function (targetMC, loadedBytes, totalBytes) {
}
myMCL.onLoadComplete = function (targetMC)
{
        var loadProgress = myMCL.getProgress(targetMC);
}
myMCL.onLoadInit = function (targetMC)
{
}
myMCL.onLoadError = function (targetMC, errorCode)
{
}

myMCL.loadClip("http://www.theurl.com/swf/theswf.swf", "thegame");

Thats the preloader, as you can see it stays on the single frame so any ideas?

put

this._lockroot = true; 

in the beginning of your external swfs

put

this._lockroot = true; 

in the beginning of your external swfs

You can view the file here

also if it helps the game has a MC with the following code to run the keyboard events

on (keyPress "<RIGHT>") {

If the listeners are working fine in the external swfs, then they should work fine when loaded into the main swf. Usually _root conflicts occur when _lockroot is not used and the external swfs refer to _root.

You may have to upload the relevant code of the external swfs so we can help further

its weird cause all the other comands work fine just the keyboard, then again the game is an old one and could be that the AS is incompatible
