Flash Animation only loads half way!

[Guest]

Hello!

I created an interactive flash website a few years ago and it worked perfect for a few years but now in the last two years it only loads a third of the way and stops. I searched the forums for this issue and there's so many different issues with flash content not loading I wasn't sure how to find my answer.

Can anyone help me?

The website is www.thoughtnachos.com

Thank you so much!

I have moved your post to what I believe is the correct forum.

You are far from the first person to post a Flash problem at FlashHelp (produced by RoboHelp) - Not for general Flash problems. That forum is for a form of online help produced by RoboHelp and not for general Flash problems. As a result, your question has gone unanswered pending it being moved to the correct location.

It would help us if you could tell us how you ended up in that Forum as perhaps then we could take some action to prevent others being caught. Thanks.

I looked at a decompiled version of your swf, and it seems that the loader's bytesTotal is being misread as 0, and so the bytesLoaded never matches that. The figure you see, 3695494, is the exact size of the swf, so the whole swf is loaded, but 3695494 doesn't equal 0.

Check out this short discussion, the problem ended up being that the file was set to be compressed on the server:
