People,

How would I go about creating a screen that comes up whilst a flash movie is loading, and when it finishes loading the movie automatically moves to the first scene?

Cheers,
S.A.

I think in the settings you have to select load 'scene at once' or something...

Not sure what but the way I said is definitly similar to, if not the way you're meant to do it.

Well that doesn't work. I mean a loading screen which stays up until everything is loaded, not just flashes up for one frame and then disapears while the rest (sound etc) is still loading.

It's easy.

Just make scene 1 have the loading text and scene 2 have the rest of the stuff on it.

While the first scene loads nothing will be displayed but it will only be a second or so, then while the second scene loads the first one will display until the second scene has finished loading.

I think there's something in the play preferences about how it should load as in load in scenes...
