ive got a mc.
ive got buttons inside of it.
i want to link from these buttons to a new scene.
this is the script on my buttons : there is nothing wrong with it cause its very simple but i cant get the dang thing 2 work :

Quote

on (rollOver) {
   _root.xArea = 460;
   _root.yArea = 170;
}
on (release) {
   gotoAndPlay ("flash", 1);
}

i 4 got how 2 fix this simple problem.

gotoAndPlay._root.scene2

I think that will work. Put in the real name ofcourse.

nah, you have to put a Frane Label on the first frame of your scene and link to the frame label. Flash turns your movie into just frames on output, and scenes are just a thing of the past :D

frame label?

[capty99]

ive labeled the first frame in my scene as "flashscene"
then here is the as for the button :

on (rollOver) {
    _root.xArea = 460;
    _root.yArea = 170;
}
on (release) {
    gotoAndPlay ("flashscene");
}

also tried this :

on (rollOver) {
    _root.xArea = 460;
    _root.yArea = 170;
}
on (release) {
    gotoAndPlay ("flash", "flashscene");
}

whats wrong? geeze... haha

You said the buttons were in the MC, right? If so, you need to set the path of the gotoAndPlay action so it will effect the root timeline. As it's written now, it will look for the frame label within the MC. Since it can't find it, nothing happens.

Replace your gotoAndPlay AS with:

_root.gotoAndPlay ("flashscene");

Give it a try.

isnt that pretty much the same thing neo said?

okay, it was a lil differently worded so ill try it out... at school in 2 days. haha, dont have the fla on hand.

You have to put the pathing before the action you want performed. Give it a whirl - I'm sure yool dig it :biggrin:

If I'm wrong, slap me around a wee bit.
