I'm trying to make a button on my flash to play to the next scene. I've the button at the end of the First scene(wich would be the title page) and trying to get it to where you press "play" to continue the movie. I feel like such a noob for not being able to do this but I'm at my wits end here. someone ANYONE ! ! ! throw me a bone here so I can at least gain some of my sanity back

What part isn't working? Which version of Actionscript are you using? 2 or 3?

[Xaldin205]

Using 2. And i have no clue i've scowered the internet and used every (script)? I could find and Squat works

are you using TEST MOVIE or TEST SCENE to see the preview of your flash?
you must use "TEST MOVIE"

this is the code I always use:

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene name", 1);
}

ya I use test movie I think what it may be is when i use stop. for some reason it just stays on that fram and doesn't move to the next scene.

Okay so it's not the button thats the problem. it's getting the actual flash to stop on the frame with the button. if i use stop it'll stop it on that frame,but the button won't work. if i choose gotoAndStop the screen goes white and nothing happens. if i choose gotoAndPlay it just continues to the next scene

mmm, add a new layer, put a keyframe in the part that you want the movie to stop, and go to actionscripts and add STOP, this will stop you movie in that point, maybe that could help you

[Xaldin205]

nope. it stops the flash,but it won't continue when i press the play button
