Linking Scenes

Hey,

Can anyone help me link a few scenes together..
I got two in my movie..

Intro_Movie
Main_Movie

Intro plays first, all it contains is about 50 frames of a animation I want played before the movie loads.
Main_Movie contans a preloader.. then the entire web site.

At the end of Intro_Movie I have:

stop();
_root.gotoAndPlay("Main_Movie", 1);

Which doesn't work..

I was thining it might be because on the first frame of my movie I have a preloader and a stop which is required for the preloader to work.. but that wasn't it.. it doesn't even load to the next movie.. just stops at the end of this one.

If I take out the stop(); then it jus replays the Intro_Movie over and over...

I've been posting at FlashKit.com usually but they duno...so I figured i'd venture out and found this site.. so i'll try here first.
Any help is apreciated.

Thanks,
Ian

if your Into_Movie is in the 1st scene and your Main_Movie in the 2nd scene, there is no need for any action at the end of the Intro_Movie.

Flash will automatically plays the next scene.

however the preloader after the intro and before the main.... all WITHIN the same swf, kinda makes no sense. why not use the intro (or parts of it) as a preloader to the main site?

Hey,

It doesnt work if I leave it with no actions on it.. it still just replays the first scene over and over...

I'm having this same problem now. But the two Movies aren't in the same swf. They're seperate swfs Loaded by LoadMovie. And when I use the action LoadMovie, the movie that's loaded doesn't have a preloader, even though I may have put one in the original swf.

The code that you are using is for playing frame numbers inside movie clips, instead of scenes. Try this:
