my preloader starts at 80%

bebo0079 May 28, 2007 12:45 PM

I've created a flash file that is around 10mb and I've placed a preloadre in front of it. I follow all the instructions in a tutorial to create the preloader and it works perfectly. The only problem is that it gives me a white screen for severale minutes and shows up the preloader when the loadeing bar is already at 80%. I can't figure out why. Any suggestions? This is the url address: www.oscarcartoons.com

Don't panic...
If it is showing a white screen for several minutes...
- Are you sure? (Should only be a couple of seconds!) Is your internet connection slow?
BUT...
The 80% of the way means that it has already loaded that far through so don't panic!

Love the site - keep it up!

In your case, 80% of your movie content are in 1st frame, this may caused by too many elements in 1st frame, or you use flash components or any symbols which "exported in first frame".

You can see your preloader only after all ur contents in 1st frame has been loaded, so keep the content in ur 1st frame as simple as posible might help.
& disable "exported in first frame" option if it is not neccessary.
At library, right click on your symbol/component, choose "Linkage", and disable the checkbox "exported in first frame".
