PlacidBox 10 Posted January 9, 2012 Anyone know when the onPreloadStart|Finished is being executed? After briefing? Before/after init.sqf? (Etc.) They're executed whenever the 'receiving' screen pops up / goes away, typically when you come back from the map screen. What/when is a good implementation/use of these two functions? You may want to disable changing things that are only visual while the game loads? Typically you have something you want to implement, then figure out how, not the other way around.

ZNorQ 0 Posted January 9, 2012 They're executed whenever the 'receiving' screen pops up / goes away, typically when you come back from the map screen. Ok, but this only applies to when you start up the game, not when you're opening/closing maps, right? You may want to disable changing things that are only visual while the game loads? Rgr, thanks. Typically you have something you want to implement, then figure out how, not the other way around. I'm not quite sure where you're going by telling me this, but I'm painfully aware of this, PlacidBox... However, by gaining knowledge, knowing your opportunities - your options, comes also great ideas. If I didn't know about scripting in ArmA, I wouldn't be able to learn and gain ideas for making my own missions, wouldn't you agree? ---------- Post added at 11:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:55 PM ---------- Thanks for your feedback, PlacidBox, comes in handy. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PlacidBox 10 Posted January 9, 2012 Ok, but this only applies to when you start up the game, not when you're opening/closing maps, right? It happens when you load a mission, sometimes when you close the map in mission, whenever you change video settings, when you alt tab and occasionally at random.
