Flash % loading Image?

Question

I want to add a Intro LOADING image to my flash because it does take a few seconds to load.. Any help on how to get this done?

Answer 1

Flashkit has quite a few tutorials on this process. Basically, you just need to create a repeating loader animation that loops until the other movie is loaded. You'll just need to add the appropriate ActionScript to compare bytes loaded and total bytes to control the timeline to either repeat the loader animation or move forward into the loaded movie.
