Random Loading Screen?

[SpreadTheBlood]

Hey everyone, is there a way I can make it where a random loading screen shows up everytime someone logs in? We're hoping to give everyone a chance to design their own and I'd like to stick a few different ones in. If its possible, can someone stick me in the right direction? Thanks

bump - anyone ever got something like this working before?

It was mentioned before here on opendayz either in this subforum or another. I don't think anything came of it.

Try the theory Commander has posted and let us know if it works.

I used that to get my current loading screen, but what I'm trying to do is get a random custom loading screen. For example, when you log in you might see one loading screen, but when you relog it'd show a different one. Hope that makes sense haha

Try my technique it's unconfirmed but worth a shot

I'll test it here in a few minutes, but where is the "BIS_fnc_selectRandom" coming from? I don't believe I have a file called that anywhere...

It's in the compiles.sqf don't worry if you haven't setup a custom one it's in the default compiles.sqf

Alright, I'll give it a test run as soon as DayZ.ST stops going down and lets me upload my pbo lol

 

[CommanderRetra]

Dayz.st is back up

 

[SpreadTheBlood]

Still continuing to go down for me.. I'll get back to you when I finally get it to work

 

[CommanderRetra]

4 and a half hours later and im trying to access my server and dayz.st is still down WHY DO PEOPLE DDOS?????????

 

[SpreadTheBlood]

Dunno :/ I still can't get it to upload..seems like the site is half restored. I'm just gonna give up on it for now and try tomorrow. If you happen to get it working or if someone gets back to you about the code do tell if it works.

 

[SUPERSANCH.]

For me everything works. Updated my server yesterday and it worked. No DDoS..

 

[CommanderRetra]

@SUPERSNACH did you say it works as in my theory or DayZ.st???

I meant dayz.st -- I have no problems.

 

[CommanderRetra]

Ok then, DayZ.st is currently broken when ever you try to upload a pbo so should be fixed in a couple of hours

 

[SpreadTheBlood]

Didn't work for me. Gives the error "Cannot load texture mpmission/random.sqf"

 

[CommanderRetra]

That means its looking for a texture file (.jpg or .paa) so try

 loadScreen = ["test1.jpg","test2.jpg","test3.jpg"] call BIS_fnc_selectRandom;
