Hello everyone and welcome to a new (probably short) series of videos I do involving the source code from Valve for Half-Life 2, and some guides on how to do stuff with this code. In this episode, I outline how you can add a custom loading screen image that depends on the map you are trying to load. I also showcase an improved version of this feature that was made by Cvoxalury. I have to give a massive thank you to Maestra Fénix for providing the original code that makes this possible! Please let me know what you think and I will see you for whatever I decide to do next, thanks for watching!
