Custom Loading Screen Problem!

New topic

Hi,

I am currently working on a map and I wanted to have a custom loading screen, I created the tga file with the correct name and placed it where all my other map files are and made sure that the picture was 1920 x 1080.

Whenever I test it the game just presents a black screen when loading the match.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thanks

After you have all of the files together in the right folder, ensure that you then load up the scenario and export the package.

If you've already done this, it may be something wrong with the image itself. When you save the tga, do you have any additional options that it asks of you?

Hey,

Thanks for replying,

Yeah I did export the package once the tga file was saved to make sure everything was in order.

When exporting the image in Illustrator though I do get two input boxes that allow for further input.

I just click ok and continue but perhaps there is something that needs to be changed here?

When loading the map it does seem to read the file but it just displays blackness so it must have something to do with some sort of options, the size is correct as I made sure the picture was 1920 x 1080. I tried with an image from Google and also a screenshot from the game but no luck.

All TGA's should be 24 bit, for COH2 maps

Absolutely right. Try to ensure that all minimap and loading screen images are 24 bit/pixel, and that should work fine. Save them, name them, stick them in the folder, and export.

It should work a charm! Far easier than it used to be!

You can also copy a old working background for a map and rename & insert the new picture.

Aaah!

Something as simple as that, changed it to 24 bit and works like a charm!

Thanks for the help, really appreciate it.

SHOUT IT OUT!

aerafield: @LimaOscarMike I would say nowadays is a decent time to try CoH3. If you loved CoH2 however, there is a solid chance you're gonna dislike CoH3

LimaOscarMike: My laptop can't even run COH3. Should I get them on my Series X or is it dead yet?

Rosbone: One of my last major gripes about Coh3. Price is still too high I feel for growth. But progress is always good.

Rosbone: I am not 100% sure but I think Relic actually fixed up the skirmish menus a little last patch. If so, thank you and keep it coming.

Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete The lack of April Fools this year is odd lol

aerafield: yeah I already prepared my "Can't believe there's comic mode for the 10 daily visitors even on this April 1st"

01 Apr 2025, 20:29 PM

Rosbone: @dasheepeh I guess that means this site is officially dead

01 Apr 2025, 20:19 PM

dasheepeh: no comic sans font for april 1st this year?

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
