Well im pleased, i feel that its alot better then what it was, i can now see movies from 0kb-700kb when before it was only 0kb-225kb so things are looking up, ill give a few big movies a try tonight, eventhough some that i saw did not load meaning movies like 1000kb and higher, anyways thx liljim eventhough you are still working on it, its good to see movies other then just the avg 5okb and such, hope things get better...

well i just got RAB3 to load completely. I'll try a couple other movies shortly and report.

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-06-30 10:24:53


Well, I usually come to this forum before even looking at the portal recently. Apparently everything's doing a lot better. God bless you liljim! I want to have your children!

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-06-30 16:44:55


well it looks like some movies are loading and some arent. But hey... a step in the right direction? I cant complain.

BTW a guy wanting to have another guy's kids..... thats just creepy.

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-01 00:50:42


How is that creepy? Haven't you ever seen Junior? If Schwartzenegger did it, it HAS to be cool! And besides, there are probably at least five flash vids in the portal pertaining to that in some one. I can't be the sickest guy on Newgrounds.

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-01 13:12:14


Gentlemen, we can rebuil...sorry, that freakin ad has been playing all day...course then I realized I could kill the audio...BUT...anyway.

The problem is still there though I notice this topic has fallen off, which leads me to believe most people aren't having the problem...but I still am... anything over a meg never loads...and between 250k-480k my flash just stops...I can't refresh it, to try and force it along...and even if I clear the temp files and cache...it gets to the same spot and dies...I know that the problem is being looked into, but it's just driving me crazy...I haven't been able to access nearly anything on Newgrounds for awhile now, and I AM FIENDING...hehe
Anyway, the second reason I posted this, in my earlier post (See, this is why I don't post often...I get wordy) I forgot to give what Browser I use...
Internet Explorer.
There...
Anyway...

i used to have aol, but than i cancelled it and the extra phone line,and its actully much cheaper to have cable instead of paying for both of them

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-01 13:33:53


Funny how sometimes flash movies fail to load but that damn AOL for Broadband with SOUND ad never fails. Oh well.

Actually i did see that movie, and well it sucked. Arnold's worst movie ever.

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-01 19:47:20


well i managed to get 8-bit 3 to work.. and thats it...

any movie after that doesnt work... and for me it always loads the preloader(or preloader game as the case may be) and stops shortly after that

ive even tried manually downloading movies and same thing.. stop at random places between 100-400k

execpt 99k which stops at 59k every time

It is his worst movie ever, almost as bad as Collateral Damage. But everything else makes him the best movie dude in the world (pending Terminator 3 is any good)!

its already been proven to be a server prob, cause too many people are having it happen. Mostly dial up users cannot view. However i havnt had a problem loading any movies today myself. Maybe its fixed for me? HOPE SO!

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-03 13:49:59


seems i got excited too quick -the pan- worked which was great but the Return of Ganondorf isn't loading it loads about 2 hearts and then just stops hang on i restarted it for the 3rd time and its got further i'll come back later

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-03 14:21:47


All who experience this problem should read this i got The Return of Ganondorf to work and everyone should know how to get the movies they're having problems with to work hopefully it should only be temporary though when loading a movie or game and it stops part way close it empty the temporary internet files even if you've already done so a thousand times and load again it should load double (at least it did for me) and repeat from beginning (including emptying the temporary internet files) until the movie finally loads (movies without a loading bar could be a problem though as you won't see the actual point where it stops)

YES YES THATS EXACTLY WHAT MY PROBLEM IS! I HAVE IT TO! Like Samus and Megaman II it just won't load anymore after it reached 50% and I REALY WANNED TO SEE SONIC X CHAOTIC BATLLE! But it also dind't load anymore after it reached 57%. I Did saw it on another computer. The next day when I was back. I tryed to watch that mvoie again on my own computer but it stil jus't loaded till 57% and then stopped with loading. I don't think its a problem we could fix. Meybe Newgrounds itself coulf find a way to fix our problem.

Nothing over 1MB worked, but it was still better than nothing. It seems that everything is stopping again. Damn it, liljim, I'm having an abortion! But seriously, thanks for helping us out as much as you have. I can't see anything when I click "Watch this Movie!" but I could still get it through GetRight, which I never tried until these problems started. Help!

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-04 01:52:21


I'm having this problem less and less with each day. I was able to load a 3 meg movie fine (newgrounds news 3) and havnt had a loading problem for a couple days now. If i have any problems loading any movies i will report it.

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-04 04:32:55


I've been meaning to check into this to see if people were still having DL problems, but I got a job breaking down and setting up for weddings concerts, etc., so it's been a time issue, I wouldn't just leave the problem just cuz it fixed for me after that no dl 2 weeks that I went through. I'm glad Mr.Silver is getting movies loaded considering it seemed like he was one of the last ones having the problem. That sucks the big one for those of you who still aren't getting movies loaded. For what it's worth, this is my com info LilJim:

OS: Windows XP (Home Edition)
Processor: Pentium4 CPU 1.60GHZ
Memory: 256 RAM
Browser: Exploer (version 6)

Thats the jist of what I would assume is the most important in getting stuff downloaded, sorry if I forgot something; it is almost 2 in the morning, I'm gonna hit the hay after this. If there needs to be more specific things, just let me/us know. Hope you guys are having better luck getting those movies downloaded; it looks like things are turning out really good for the most part.


I must lollerskate on this matter.

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-04 15:52:01


I watched alot of movies today, just to see and it seems like the problem has been fixed. Only 1 movie wouldnt load for me Samus and Megaman Part II, but i was able to get Star Wars::Kompressor, Rihm & Maurice,
Lilo+Stitch: The audition and Sonic X Chaotic Battle (which is funny cause SOnic x is huge!)

Besides i have had problems with the odd movie before, so thats no biggy

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-04 22:13:48


Well I can get a few small movies loaded, but nothing else even remotly works, what ever you did to get it this close, do it some more.

Oh and also some times the portal page only loads partaly as well. Hope that helps

Response to HELP!! Flash movies not loading! 2003-07-04 22:32:28

I noticed that too, the downloads are ALOT slower than ever. But its obviously being worked on, cause a few days ago i couldnt so much as watch 1 movie.
