Custom preloader AS help

[IZSBHR]

OK, so in my first AS frame, I have:

_root.stop();
PercentLoaded = _root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTot al()*100;
if (PercentLoaded != 100) {
_root.bar.gotoAndStop = PercentLoaded;
} else {
gotoAndPlay("loaded");
}
pert = percentLoaded
onMouseDown = function () {
if (percent>99) {
gotoAndPlay(100);
}
};

When I export the movie, the dynamic text with the "pert" variable says "UNL"

Also, the MC with the instance "bar" won't go to the frame which equals the percent loaded. Please help, thank you.

Are you using AS2 or AS3? If you're using NG's preloaders some don't work in AS3.

If it was bigger, it would say 'undefined', because it doesn't know what percentLoaded is. The PercentLoaded variable you used earlier has a capital P. F8 is pretty sensitive about case

Also, the MC with the instance "bar" won't go to the frame which equals the percent loaded. Please help, thank you.

_root.bar.gotoAndStop(PercentLoaded);

Denvish answered your questions, though I wanted to add something : you'll have to round the percentLoaded var for the bar to go to that frame:

_root.bar.gotoAndStop(int(PercentLoaded)
);

Well, now nothing shows up for the text var "pert", and "bar" doesn't go to the frame equal to percentLoaded. And if it has already loaded, it SHOULD be playing the loaded animation (a simple alpha reduction tween).
