Change Loading Screen / Tips

When loading into a mission, the loading screen can be modified to show different loading screen tips and even different pictures. Full details are available in Arma_3:_Loading_Screens.

While the advice is to include the code in description.ext, it can make the file hard to read. An easier method is to import the loading screen from a separate file.

Scripts

description.ext
// Custom Loading Texts
#include "loadingTips.hpp"
loadingTips.hpp
class CfgWorlds
{
	class Any
	{
		author = "IceBreakr Interactive Studio";
		description = "Isla Duala";
		pictureMap = "background.jpg";
		pictureShot = "thumbnail.jpg";
 
		loadingTexts[] = {
			"SESO HQ is probably somewhere on the Atlantic Ocean.",
			"Combat Service Support personnel are non-combatant contractors. In some cases, CSS personnel are deployed in operations to support the operatives.",
			"When using a rocket launcher, remember to clear out for back blast.",
			"Press Page Up and Page Down to range your weapon.",
			"Press Left Shift and Tilde (~) to safety your weapon and prevent misfires."
			};
	};
};

Make sure to include a background.jpg and a thumbnail.jpg. Otherwise, comment those lines.
