just replace the image with your image. (must be the same extension)

Ehh, no - make an add-on .pk3 with the changes.
Do not replace the camp_map in your pak0.pk3 since this will make the client unclean, and you won’t be able to join any pure server.

copy the file that you want to edit from pak0.pk3, don’t edit pak0.pk3.
Make a new folder like “z_BTFmod” (has to begin with a letter that comes after p, generall people use Z)
Copy the path where you found the file in pak0 in the folder you just created so:
In the folder you made (z_BTFmod) Make a new folder called “gfx” then in that folder make a new folder called “loading”
then you will have this:
bla/blabla/z_BTFmod/gfx/loading/
Paste the camp_map.tga in there.
(bla/blabla/z_BTFmod/gfx/loading/camp_map.tga)
Edit this image and save it in the loading folder (keep it as a .tga file type)
I hope you have winrar otherwise you have to figure this part out yourself.
Go back to the folder z_BTFmod and select the folder gfx.
click the right mouse button and select add to archive.
Change compression method to best and type to .zip press OK
Then you should have a .zip file called z_BTFmod.zip
Change the file type from .zip to .pk3 (it’ll say are you sure or something press yes)

You have made your first minimod - enjoy

Pakscape may be the better choice for pk3 files or 7zipas another free application
