Scaleform 4 load image from unreal package

[altodarknight]

I have looked everywhere trying to find out the new method of loading images into swfs for Scaleform 4. From what I have read UILoader has been replaced, but I can't find anything inside CLIK that replaces it.

Ideally some help in how this would now be achieved.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hey there! Still having trouble?

It looks like a few of the CLIK components emulate Adobe's components.
I've tried Adobe's UILoader in AS3 and it works fine.

With Flash open, go to 'Window > Components (Ctrl+F7)'.
With the components window open, find 'UILoader' and drag it onto the stage.

That's it! It should work more or less the same as the CLIK one [guide].

The path for this UILoader is fl.containers.UILoader .

I ended up using the AS3 Loader class. After that worked fine with the same path that CLIK's AS2 UILoader class took.

Thanks for the help though. I should have updated the thread with my solution. I hate when people don't do that and then I did it myself....

I am bumping this thread because I can't get UILoader to work properly : whenever I put an UILoader on stage with existing CLIK widgets, the scene is broken.

Is there any problem related to UILoader and Scaleform ?

OK, so it is not possible to simply load an image from Scaleform ? Should I be using UDK's Canvas to directly write on screen ?

I ended up using the AS3 Loader class.

Could you explain step by step what you did? Thanks.

Thanks but I'm not using CLIK, I'm trying to use pure Action Script 3.

You basically use it the same way as the CLIK UILoader, but replace it with the native Flash loader that I linked to.

Hi Matt..

I am doing the image load though a Loader object. Here is the code:

public class B3DLoader extends MovieClip {
		public var ldr:Loader;
		public var image:Bitmap=null;
		
		public function B3DLoader() {
			// constructor code
			ldr = new Loader();
			ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadComplete, false, 0 , true);
		}
		
		public function LoadingImage(p_path:String):void
		{
			var url:String;
			var urlReq:URLRequest;
			
			url = p_path;
			urlReq = new URLRequest(url);
			ldr.load(urlReq);
								
		}
		
		public function LoadComplete(event:Event):void
		{
			image = Bitmap(ldr.content);
			image.smoothing = true;
			addChild(image);
		
		}
		
		public function RemoveImage():void
		{
			if(image!=null)
				removeChild(image);
		}
	}

As you can see in the LoadComplete method i add the image to the stage, but when i test the game its showing me the image very pixelated, Why may be these?
