A small custom loading-screen modification for DayZ.
Version 0.1.0, developed and tested with DayZ 1.29.
Local server and client functional testing completed successfully.
- Original Zellno artwork.
- Custom background during connection, queue and character loading.
- Preserves native progress bars, hints, status messages and queue text.
- No gameplay changes.
- No framework dependencies.
- One PBO.
- Required by both server and connecting clients.
- Developed on Linux with the official DayZ Tools through Wine.
The artwork was composed for 16:9, with important elements positioned to remain usable on 16:10 and ultrawide displays.
Another mod that changes the same login or loading-screen classes may override this background. Loading Zellno Loading Screen last is recommended.
Copy @ZellnoLoadingScreen to the server, copy the public key to the server
keys directory and add the mod to the client-visible -mod parameter.
Example: -mod="@OtherMods;@ZellnoLoadingScreen"
build.sh uses FileBank, DSSignFile and DSCheckSignatures through Wine.
The private signing key is stored outside this repository. Generated PBOs, signatures, builds and private keys are excluded from Git.
