Wulvgar 1 Posted August 26, 2012 (edited) I've searched the pbo file feels like 100 times, but cant locate which file might control the load screen. Searched the forums didn't see or missed it >>This is the load screen picture after you select your side and waiting to spawn. I know I'll feel stupid when someone tells me where it is...laugh Joining different servers I've seen custom load screen so I know I'm not crazy, I hope LOL Edited August 26, 2012 by Wulvgar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Overlord 0 Posted August 26, 2012 Search mission-making manuals/tutorials for something like onloadmission. Think you define custom images there, as well as text. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunter Severloh 3955 Posted August 27, 2012 Custom Loadscreens Can be used by putting an image in the mission-folder. The path is now relative to the mission folder. [b]loadScreen = "pictures\test.paa";[/b] Will work if the picture “test.paa†lies in a sub-folder called “pictures†within your mission-folder. Images working image-types are .paa and .jpg .paa can handle transparency but is big in size .jpg cannot handle transparency but will achieve good tradeoff between size and quality. For ArmA2 textures / images generally applies: - aspect ratio should be 2:1 or 1:1 - pixel resolution should be a number divisible by 2 - currently supported max resolution is 2048 x 2048 afaik Good pixel resolutions for Loadscreens would be: 2048 x 1024 1024 x 512 512 x 256 Links TexView 2 is a texture viewer and conversion tool for .paa and .pac files http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/TexView_2 BI Tools 2 http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/BI_Tools_2 IrfanView is a freeware/shareware image viewer that can view, edit, and convert image files http://www.irfanview.de/ GIMP is a free raster graphics editor http://www.gimp.org/ LoadingScreen (how-to) a guide for a more complex variant http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=104552 detailed info on .paa format http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/PAA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
