Edit: Sry i thought you meant description.

Anyways as far as i know there are no way to do this. Allthough I have seen the text being removed, but I have no idea if that is a bug or intended

Because the map has to load before these changes can be made, the L O A D I N G will not change until players play another game.

Open notepad and copy following:

[FrameDef]
LOADING_LOADING=<Text Here>
LOADING_PRESS_A_KEY=<Text Here>
LOADING_WAITING_FOR_PLAYERS=<Text Here>

Save it as ''war3mapSkin.txt''.
Custom path is ''war3mapSkin.txt''

Watch out with that since it gave me some Interface problems.

If you're using custom game interface, DO NOT use this method
" [FrameDef]
LOADING_LOADING=<Text Here>
LOADING_PRESS_A_KEY=<Text Here>
LOADING_WAITING_FOR_PLAYERS=<Text Here>" etc, since, like Billy the Cat says, you will have problems with the changes made to game interface. To be more exactly, if you use that method, every change made trough "Game Interface" won't work.
The best way to change the loading screen texts if to open your map in NewGen WE, and the option of changing the text will be available in "Game Interface"

 

[Billy the Cat]

Oh that's cool
What about disabling player messages since that also disables the Interface?

 

[sadvisor]

it does not disables the whole game interface. It only disables the changes made to interface trough "game interface"

 

[Billy the Cat]

Yep, but most people wouldn't want that to be disabled.
Especially not for a little thing like the loading bar
Can NewGen disable player messages?

 

[sadvisor]

to disable player messages?..i don't think it's possible.

 

[RaijinSpark]

OMG!! your changing The Original WarCraft

You can't disable them, but you can hide.

How to: Hide Entered Chat Messages ( + Extras!)

 

[Billy the Cat]

There was a script to disable loading texts and one thing to import to disable player messages, they both disable Interface.

 

[Dr. House]

Just go to advanced and than thoose game options or somthing there is a full list of things you can add (text of stuff) icons of attacks of units and also the text of the loading

 

[Billy the Cat]

I haven't seen it in Options for the loading

 

[sadvisor]

Billy the Cat, the reason you can't find them in "Game Interface" is because you don't use NewGen (i_brg_doom sure uses it).
Only with this WE you can see hidden settings and all those things.

 

[Billy the Cat]

Using Newgen on an already started map won't annoy me or Shanghai?

 

[sadvisor]

Not sure what you mean, but if you think your map will be changed somehow or something like this then you're wrong

+rep child of boom

 

[Hashjie]

When I did that a while back I also changed the exit warcraft buttons, escape buttons etc... but they gave mayor problems online...

 

[Billy the Cat]

Same for changed Faction names. They only show up at the next map you play

 

[RaijinSpark]

is this kind of changes in maps allowed?

Custom text wont crash the game inferface. This is what i do:
- Reset all the "game interface" to standard.
- Import the "loading screen text"
- Save and check it works
- Delete the loading screen text
- Make game inferface

I dunno how it works, but this work for me.
Maybey there are a easy way, but i use this.

That would really surprise me if that worked :O
