Default Integrating 4 simple flash files into one?

Hi there guys,

I've reached a problem with my assignment and was wondering if any of you could help a bit. The assignment states:

"You are required to develop a simple application which integrates the four Flash tutorials (currently on blackboard) into a single Flash application."

I've finished all of the tutorials but I'm stuck on how to actually integrate all 4 together. I've made a splash screen like it asks and so I was thinking of maybe adding a button to each seperate tutorial? My problem is, I don't know how.

Since I'm a complete newbie to flash every time I try googling an answer, I keep getting sent to complicated stuff.

Thanks for your time.

Try using the loadMovie command. Of course, make sure you have a movie clip created before you do this. After that, I'd use something like this:


on (release) {
 target.loadMovie("YourTutorialFile.swf")

}

Note that the SWF files must be on the same server if you're doing it this way. Otherwise, if the files are at a different server, you need to use the full path to each file.

Hello
To me it sounds like you would want to look into loadMovie and loadMovieNum, for specifics you can look it up in the Actionscript Dictionary. It will basically load your external tutorials into the main splash screen whenever you want it to automatically or with a button. Then you can apply properties to the movie. I found a couple of quick and understandable tutorials for you at http://www.cbtcafe.com/flash/loadmovie/loadmovie.html and
http://www.mix-fx.com/tutorials/importflash.html

If you are having problems post some code and somebody will help you.

Peace
Mike
