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.
