For them who want a flash boot before RR here is how
OK this is for a Flash file to start before RR.
I did this is Flash MXPro 7.0, here is how
1) open a new flash document (for the one i did one layer is only needed)
2) on the layer click on the first frame then in actions add this script
Code:
instanceName.onLoad
fscommand ("fullscreen", true);
Mouse.hide("true");
3) I did mine at 30 frames (its up to you how many frames you want) now click on frame 30 then right click and insert keyframe, then add this to the action
Code:
fscommand ("exec", "start.bat")
fscommand ("QUIT")
stop();
4) OK that is the actions done now you can add another layer and do all your graphics there if you like, i will leave that bit to you :).
5) OK save the file to some folder do this by file>save as>filename.fla (this is so you can edit it later i called mine start.fla)
6) Now that you have done that do this file>publish settings>Windows Projector>ok
then file>publish (this will make a start.exe flash file we will use that later)
===========================
Now that is done we have to make a .bat file as you may have noticed i placed the file name in the flash script up there any how this is what you need to do
1) open note pad and place this code in
Code:
@echo off
START c:\Program" "Files\Road" "Runner\rr.exe
EXIT
the path is set to c:\Program Files\Road Runner\rr.exe the " " are there as windows dos dosnt like spaces :)
2) save the file as this start.bat (make sure it dosnt save as start.bat.txt) to the same place as the start.fla and the start.exe (just for now)
OK thats it nearly done just need to place all the files in the correct places note i have done this thinking that your root path for RR is the same as most others so take all this in lol
1) Make a folder in c:\Program Files\Road Runner\ called fscommand it has to be called fscommand else it will not work
2) now place this files in the root paths
c:\Program Files\Road Runner\fscommand\start.bat
c:\Program Files\Road Runner\start.exe (note flash file that is .exe)
4) thats it test it by clicking the start.exe flash file
===================================
Now as some of you know you can boot strate into this by following this FAQ
Hope this is ok i have attached a zip file that has my start.fla file in so you can look or even use ;)
