Load Screen

[Tom-Ace]

Battle Tanks is one of the only big name Wc3 maps out there that does not have a custom load screen, i would like to ask everyone that can or is willing to try to make a load screen for it or give out good ideas.
I myself am making one at the moment, if you do attempt to make a load screen try to keep the file size low.

And if we all come up with some good screens maybe Paladon and Velo will like it and put it in.

Well my suggestion is to make something like dota some tanks vs some tanks and maybe in the middle to put the titan like killing almost all of them.

I knew this will happen but still it was a good try ^^

If the development team agrees, i can make one. I've made some before for other personal maps

We already thought about a custom load screen. If we'll find a good one we want to add it asap.

I have been trying out different text for load screen this one below is one, and i was wondering what you all think.

Depends on the rest of the load screen. If you go with a WC3 screenshot of the map, it might seem out of place. It's a decent image, but the colors might not smooth over so well with the Btanks terrain and the graphic seems more of like an old-school Duke Nukem/Doom image than a WC3 one.

I don't like it.

so you are telling us that you are waiting for someone to do it but you aren't planning to do it?i didn't get the point

Ive already created one some time ago but some problems ocurred:

It is based on an artwork from a fan.
However, the quality ingame was horrible and boosted the filesize far too high.

It could be reworked as to rise the file size only 100 or 150 kb
EDIT: i have some time and i'm doing it

[Paladon]

And the quality would go down straightly i guess.

Other popular maps have big sized loading screens too. I remember the size of one of civ wars, it was 1,4 mb, splitted into 4 images puzlled together for the loading screen.

While it may sound stupid to use the majority of the maps filesize for the loading screen, a 2 mb isnt a big deal to download too.

+1 for better loading screen.

[Althend]

I dont think we need better load screen. I d rather think the loading screen need more datas information on it ^_^

[Battlemaniac]

this would be nice if you can incorporate the loading bar for each player, i want to see who has loaded and who's still loading.

who cares about the filesize if it´s below 2mb? but i think there was already a thread where someone wanted to make a leadingscreen but i think the reason why it was not taken was that the filesize was too big or sth like that.

new loading screen - i´m waiting for you :mrgreen:

not everyone has cable.

I don't think battle tanks should drop its support for users of low-spec machines just yet.
