Loading Screen

[DarkDenizen]

Not sure if this goes in here or in the UI forum, but anyway:
Is it possible to reskin the loading bar and frame? If so, what are the paths for these? I tried to do this myself, and imported the files to UI\Glues\Loading\LoadingBar\whatever.blp (the path I got them from), but nothing happened.

as far as i know, it only works with mods like Creep Rebellion ( new .mpq file )

I'm guessing wc3 only looks at the imported files for things like overwritten stuff ater it's done loading.

Then how do you explain custom minimap previews?

 

[Pyritie]

I guess that's one of the few things it does look at.

Hello, I've recently come up with this same idea. Hence I'll resurrect this topic. I've tried doing this as well, the paths don't seem to work directly. The things that surely load are the loading screen and the map preview. Yet, in this forum, http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=50144 someone has seen the other loadbars before, perhaps in a mod. Has anyone ever pulled this off so far?

You know you're gonna get this thread locked, right?

Actually I don't. Is creating a new thread prefered over resurrecting one then? It's all the same to me, really.
