Sponsor Preloaders

Stephen,

Just trying to work this out. How do I tell the extension where the swf is that I want to embed? I've got the dialogue box asking for the Binary URL and I've tried setting it to the path of the file and also just the name of the file (it's in the same folder as the .mfa) and no luck?

EDIT: Ignore me I found the helpful pdf doc in the end.

Thanks,

Steve

Stephen - would it be possible to add an option to set the framerate for the swf? I only ask as most Flash files seem to use 20 or 24 FPS and most of my games are set to 60 so it makes the swf files I'm using whizz by!

Thanks,

Steve

Sure. :)

Thanks Stephen, that'll help a lot :)

The only other thing I found was the resizing issue mentioned previously.

Great extension :)

Steve

Any more updates Stephen? :)

I am still very busy, but I haven't forgotten. :)

Hey Stephen,

Did you get a chance to add this feature? I've got a game ready to go but my sponsor's preloader looks awful as it runs way too fast!

Cheers,

Steve

I will take a look. :)

Thanks Stephen :)

I haven't tried or played around with this at all, so I have no idea if this would work, but have you tried the set frame rate option in MMF? It's under the frame options in the expression editor. I just noticed this option existed the other day, but don't know if it works.

Pineapple: doesn't work for my game unfortunately as it totally changes the game play...

So, for clarification, does this actually use it as a real preloader? Or does this play after the Flash file is already downloaded? It appears after looking at the PDF it just runs the "preloader" after the file downloads and starts the first frame.
