So anyone knows if it´s possible to change the Mustafar loading screen to a different one?
It doesn´t fit well to my Coruscant map.

I'm going to revive this topic (sorry), since I'm also curious if it's possible. I think it'd be really cool to have custom screens for our map as it's loading, like the official ones do. Give it a little more variety.

Yes, this would be very useful to know. Just a thought, mabye we can find the answers in some of the req files.

I've played with it a bit, but to no avail. I've PMed PAN-fnord on it, and he got back to me saying he'd look into it.

Sorry to revive this old topic, but has this issue been resolved?
I searched the forum but found no answer...
The Bespin platform map has a custom loading screen. So somebody has found a way to do it, i guess.

Huh? I'm the author of Bespin Platforms and I have never seen a custom loading screen.

But no, it's not possible. The way the loading is set up requires a main file to be overwritten each time a new loading screen is added, so even if we had the tools to do loading screens, it still wouldn't work since every time someone had a new loading screen it would override somebody else's.

but has this issue been resolved?

I would guess not otherwise we'd know. It seems like it could potentially be easy enough to do, but that doesn't mean that it is, or in fact possible at all. I guess we're still waiting on PAN-fnord or someone to discover how.

EDIT: I hadn't seen Teancum's post when I was posting. Still it'd be nice to have our own loading screens but what can you do hey!

Sorry, Teancum my mistake
I mean Bespin Cloud City.....:



When i choose it, this screen starts up.
Maybe we were talking about different things here.
Do you know how to do this?

Oh you mean where the camera is when you select a team.

Sorry again - i found out for myself (after a few hours )
For those who want to know:
You have to get the cameracoordinates as already posted here:

Then you edit the lua file of you map: Mine was here:
C:\BF2_ModTools\data_MAZ\Common\scripts\MAZ
and paste the coordinates at the end of that file - the one that comes after
"OpeningSateliteShot" is yout loading screen picture.

Greets - future
and thanks for the help anyway

Does anyone know of a way to at least change the tips at load to briefing? You could re-write over every single tip in the localize tool but would that even work?

Probably not. It would involve replacing the game's common.lvl.
