Well i have been messing around with it and i have not sucsessfully got it to work...i made a 450x800 pic .tga imported it, wouldnt let me use it, i then changed the picture to a .blp imported it, still wouldnt let me use it, do i have to overwrite a old loading screen by changeing the file path or something...that doesnt make sense though since all the old ones are divided into 4 different picture files and it only gives me the option to use 1 imported 1

If i want to do something that blizzard did, i copy from them than edit. Look at the new custom maps blizzard map, theres one with a custom loading screen export edit than import

what Sware said. I beleive the map is called monoliths or sumthing like that. it has a mdx file and 4 tga files(it devides the screen into 4 parts). you have to import them all (you can edit the tga files) and set the loading screen to it in the map loading screen menu.

ooohh, understood ;þ

not sure why it devides it though, maybe it doesnt like tga files over 1 megabyte (the larger portions are EXACTLY that big :P)
