Question for mappers about custom loading screen
Until a few months ago when i created a new map and want to add a loading screen, took a pic and made it a TGA file. , added the TGA file to my MP folder where the others my map files are and "packaged" it into a new .sga (via corsix). The map was show up in the game.
Now, for some reason... when the TGA file is added, the map wont show up in the game. Any ideas/solutions

i am unable to get any load screen to work even when I follow a guide to make a folder called loading under the MP folder you ment to use the World builder

how do you make a SGA mod studio i use it to edit stock maps

Solved. I forgot that the source folder of corsix ( were the files of the map to pack are) have to be structured in source folder/scenarios/MP. All the files (also the loading fileTGA) have to be in the MP folder

So the loading folder is not needed what do you press in mod studio?
It is not needed.

The "loading" folder don't works. You can see your loading screen only by mod studio (Corsix). As input folder, create a folder on the desktop ( the name not is important) Inside it create a folder named "scenarios". Inside "scenarios create a folder named "mp". All files of the map go in this folder (mp).

1) You have to use the World Builder program of the old Coh
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Company of Heroes\WorldBuilder.exe"

2) This program saves the map files in
"C:\Users\PC name\Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes\ww2\data\scenarios\MP"
(if you have not the folders \scenarios\MP, create it)

3) Create a folder, called "MyMap", although the name doesn't really matter. Within this folder create another folder called "Scenarios". Within the "Scenarios"folder again create a folder called "MP".
Take all your map files, including a loading screen, called "Your_map_name.tga" and put all those files into the "MP" folder you just created.

4) Now open up Corsix-Mod-Studio.

Once it has loaded. Go to the top left and choose the "tools" tab.
In the new window double-click the "SGA-Packer" tool. A new box should pop up, requesting "input" and an "output" data.
For the "input" line you click on "browse" and select the folder "My map", which you just created in step 3. You do NOT directly select the folder "MP", which holds your map files. The sub-folder structure is essential.
For the "output" line you type "Your_map_name" and then browse to the "C:\Users\your name\ desktop.
For "TOC name" choose "Data"
Hit "create" and that's it. The "Your_map_name".sga is now on the desktop.

4) Put The "Your_map_name".sga in
"C:\Users\your name\Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes Relaunch\ww2\scenarios"
