Don’t worry, I saw it when I read your post at the top of the thread. :smiley:

Iffurita wrote this little tutorial, you may find it practical: Fixing Up Your Limbo Screens
The first part is about the loading screen and the .arena file. (Allso note the link to Splashdamage, it links to this forum as we’ve got a huge sticky thread about all sorts of tutorials and things)

Ok here’s asample arena file from one of my silly maps.

It goes under etmain/scripts/Escort.arena

{
map “Escort”
longname “Escort”
type “wolfmp wolfsw wolflms”
timelimit 30
axisRespawnTime 30
alliedRespawnTime 20
lmsbriefing “LMS blah.”
briefing “Loading screen blah.”
axiswintext “Final Axis text.”
alliedwintext “Final Allied text.”
mapposition_x 520
mapposition_y 585
}

I think the keys are pretty self explanatory.
