Load Bar - Changing It

Alright, I have been trying to make a custom loadbar(on the loading screen).

However, it seems to not work. Anybody know if there is a way around this or if it is unavoiable?

I think that custom skins and all those wont work until the map loads up, so u need to make a mod to change the load bar skin.

You can change it. You can even make the bar that fills up red if you wanted to. What exactly are you doing?

Anyways, what you have to do is import the file you want the loadbar to be. Make sure it's the same filepath as the original so it overwrites.

This sounds interresting.. What is the Loadingbar model called?

- Soultaker

You should be able to find it with an MPQ-editor or something like that.

I tried that....and as shadow said, it does not work. Seems to be one of those things that is loaded on game init not from the map itself.

@Mystic - Have you tested that theory?

Wrong, that will not work.

You need to make a custom loading bar model for the loading screen that uses textures you specify.

Reallys? Lemme test this.

I'm not postive, but in theory it should work, yes.

Gave it a try, gg noub seems to not work. Ah well, it was a good idea.

Realization - I just called the big admin in the sky noub, damns.

How odd, sorry I don't have time to experiment myself.

Was a good idea, too bad the game makers are all gaygernauts.

Im sure this has been posted before, Tim. is right, its definatly been done, it was a model as he said, somebody claimed they got it working, but couldent change the animation of it.
Its something to do witht that, cant find the thread sorry.
I think Pitzermike posted the solution, not sure though :(

You can change it only for a mod, you can even change its position on the screen, animation, color, all that. But for maps you cant.

Yeah that's right.
