I have just done a final compile on my nazaire update, I think I have got is running as well as I can.

I am making a new loading screen for it, after seeing the lovely one for the hunt reloaded in bragging I thought I would go for something in that style.

What I want is to display it fullscreen instead of inside the letterbox as I have it doing now. Is this possible ?

Heres my urc:

menu "obj/mp_saintnazaire_tow" 640 481 NONE 0
bgcolor 0 0 0 1
borderstyle NONE
bgfill 0 0 0 1
fullscreen 1
//vidmode 3
//fadein 0.5
virtualres 1

Heres my new screen so far:

Yea it is, I managed to do it by trial and error...

Here is my urc for you:

Code: Select all

menu "dm/tvwdm2" 640 481 NONE 0 
bgcolor 0 0 0 1 
borderstyle NONE
bgfill 0 0 0 1 
fullscreen 1
//vidmode 3
//fadein 0.5
virtualres 1
postinclude ui/loadingbar.txt

Label

bgcolor 1.00 1.00 1.00 0.00
borderstyle "NONE"
shader "tvwdm2"
}
end.

And thats all

Hope you can exploit this

Try getting rid of the bottom bit... Trial and error matey

Posted: **Thu Jul 15, 2004 9:07 am**

OK, I've read through the thread but still can't work it out

I'm using PaintShop Pro 7 and can't quite follow the instructions for getting the Alpha channel defined. Also, which .urc file needs editing? The specific file isn't mentioned by name

TIA

First of all, this topic is very usefull and the explains are very good but i can't get it to work

I follow the whole instructions and have read many threads, can enyone find a fault in my script, i have read every thread in this whole forum about this and i failed so far, the loadscreen is grey again....

* I have download an nice loadingpic, size 1024 x 768 and changed it with Photoshop to 512 x 512 ( 1mb ) and save it as 32bit.

My loading_bastogne.urc :

Code: Select all

menu "dm/bastogne" 640 481 NONE 0

This is just a personal preference but in your shader file you can try changing this line:

Code: Select all

blendfunc gl_one_minus_src_alpha gl_src_alpha

To this:

Code: Select all

blendfunc GL_DST_COLOR GL_ZERO

Just try all that and see if it works. If it doesn't, I don't know what to tell you. Good luck!

Cobra, your .urc and .shader look fine. I didn't find any errors so I think there's a problem with your image.
I have edited my post on the first page of this thread and added some pictures on how to make the alpha channel.

http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~map/mohaa/f ... sc&start=0

I hope this will make it a little more clear.

Thank you very much panTera.

I follow your image tutorial and it works, i appriciated that.

I found another tutorial for creating a fullscreen loadingscreen.

Thanks again
