That's driving me crazy, I tried importing tga and blp files, but that just doesn't work.

Then I went To Monolyth and saw the import manager ----- Blizzard imported A MDX FILE ! -:...:

Yes there were a MDX file and a lot of tga ones with LoadingScreenXX.tga, well I exported them all , I modified the Tga Files - That Was Way to difficult Cause they are Four Images that should match , And then Imported them to my map, (I used custom path to delete the war3imported thingy --- It worked But the images didn't match well, Also I am tired of using a Model for a pic that isn't 3d.

Anyone knows a way to import a single tga file and use it as a loading screen?

Ok, this is what I did, you export the .mdx file, and import that into your map. Then, you make a 1024 x 768 image of your loading screen. Then, you crop the top left and top right corners to 512 x 512, and the bottom left and bottom right corners to 512 x 256. If you are still having problems, E-Mail me your loading screen and I will be happy to do it for you. [email protected]

It would be cool if someone wrote a tutorial on this subject. I'm not into picture editing so I had no idea what you meant...
