access variables from an external SWF (Issues Probably Quite Simple)

[dark583]

Its quite simple even though i clearly defined it as a Number I.E a float in flash it prints out this error. :*(. Im trying to make a volume slider and connect it to a config float

Tutorial gotten from http://udn.epicgames.com/Three/GFxVariableAccess.html

Part of my Flash File

_global.gfxExtensions = true;
import gfx.controls.ButtonGroup;
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
import gfx.controls.Slider;
import gfx.core.UIComponent;

var SoundSliderSoundFx:Number = 0.5;

startDrag("cursor_mc", true);
// time to trace :D
trace("init");

// Slider 1
soundslider.addEventListener("change", this, "soundslideronchange");
function soundslideronchange(event:Object):Void 
{
	
	SoundSliderSoundFx = soundslider.value;
	lbl1.text = SoundSliderSoundFx;
	ExternalInterface.call("UpdateSoundSoundFx");
}

//lbl1.text = slider1.value;

Unrealscript Part

/** 
 *  Configuration method which stores references to _root and
 *  _root.manager for use in attaching views.
 */
final function ConfigFrontEnd()
{ 
	
	
	RootMC = GetVariableObject("_root");
	soundSliderSoundFx = RootMC.GetFloat("SoundSliderSoundFx");
	`log("##### soundSliderSoundFx:"@soundSliderSoundFx);
	
	
	mainmenu_title =  GetVariableObject("_root.mainmenu_title");
	
	
	`log("Testing Values"@btnNewGame_mc @mainmenu_title @RootMC );
	
	
	bInitialized = TRUE;

	RootMC.SetFloat("SoundSliderSoundFx", 100);
	`log("##### MyString changed to: "@RootMC.GetFloat("soundSliderSoundFx"));
	
}

has nobody have an idea?

i guess UDK assumed 100 as an integer rather than a float in RootMC.SetFloat("SoundSliderSoundFx", 100); have you tried 100.0 instead?
