it says there's a syntax error. is it because i'm using CS5? 1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program.

Okay, I've tried 3 times and keep screwing up something when I get to the motion tweening because the tween itself doesn't work...Can anyone tell me what I might be doing wrong at that point?

On the first page, what is the "center box for registration'? That's what I'm confused about, and also that I only started with flash 3 days ago...so help would be nice!^^

when making a movie clip, you can see in the window, 9 boxes, the 1 black, on the upper left, and the other 8, white. Click the center box to make it black. That's the registration.

I don't know whether my brain just isn't as vast as normal flash makers but I began to lose knowledge of what was going on by the time the actionscript came in

ergg...
alright so i used to use this tutorial to make all my preloaders. worked great!
but now i can't get it to work..
i carefully follow the steps, up untill the part where you put in all that action script. I'm in scene 1, i have the bar selected, and it wont let me put action script in for the bar. Say action script cannot be applied to the symbol. It's a movie symbol like you said. Don't know why it wont let me add action script.

I have no idea what you just told me.
You need to be more clear on what's what, and what does what. Cause you just seemed all over the place with your steps.

Punk1 [2009-01-02 05:20:28 +0000 UTC]

I tried it but it ended up looking like a shape tween thing because I pasted instead of transformed the bar on frame 100.

johanneswalter In reply to fighterlegend [2008-11-04 20:12:56 +0000 UTC]

If you're simply previewing it, that may be why.
Make sure you [whilst previewing] go to View > simulate download.

This option will make it appear as though you are downloading it from the internet. Locally, you don't need a loading bar due to you have all the files - this results in the constant going back and forth.

haha okay...wow..i feel really stupid...sorry for boggin up your comments on here...idk if u can delete them but feel free to if you want.
I just realized the preloader I'm looking at that has a play button on it is one from a diff tutorial which didnt work, but i forgot to delete. Sooo yeah, that would be why mine has a play button and yours doesnt. haha. okay. sorry.

ozkid92 [2008-02-17 05:23:09 +0000 UTC]

okay now here's one that i just really can't figure out. How can I change it so that after loading, it doesnt go to a play button? I want it to load then just go straight on to playing an intro part of my film, then later i'll put in my own play button.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

ozkid92 [2008-02-16 03:14:39 +0000 UTC]

oh never mind scratch my last comment about having problems! I see what was happening. When I went to test it I had the Loop option on under Control, so it would load it, then finish the sound and reload it. I put in a longer sound and stopped the looping and it works fine!
I've tried at least a dozen other tutorials. this is the only one ive found that works!
thank you so much!
