well i saw in a custom map (uhter party ((afer the cinematic)) the creator of the map used a black screen (fade out) and then "loading" but not loading a new map like campaigs... just white leters in the black screen "LOADING..." so i want to know. the map was loading stuffs to run faster or something?? because the map was already started, how can be loading?

there are some trigger action in the game category, Game - preload files - were you have to put the model, or you can make a txt file listing all those models, import it and use it in the preload batch.

I've never used them but I guess preloading a file makes the map go faster when creating units that use that file
