Animated SWF to stop reloading

[MydknyteStyrm]

Hi all,

I made a animated swf file, measures 1024x768, with music embedded in the swf so its all contained. When put through Hypertheme, plays music and animation works perfectly. Updated Hyperspin to 1.5.1.where I can have a Default theme. Issue is when I start up HS, theme plays fine, but then freezes when I move to next item on wheel. If I copy and paste my "Default.zip" theme, and change the names to other Categories (Nintendo, Sega, Mame,etc) the theme plays each time, but reloads from the start.

What I need is my animated SWF to play the music and animate through all wheel choices in the Main Menu, without freezing or reloading. Thanks!

Try to deactivate reload background in hyperHQ

Tried that option checked and unchecked. Nothing seemed to work. I’m using the Hs 1.5.1 build which mentions the ability to now have a Default menu for the main menu. Is there something specific I should be doing that will implement this?

So after some experimenting I figured out that you cannot animate backgrounds on the Background layer in HT. I made my animated swf Artwork 1 and moved the wheel accordingly and it worked fantastic.

Yeah, I did some testing and if you put a .swf on background it stops when you press a key. Good to know that artwork layers don't have listeners to stop a swf when you press a key
