Talk:Loading screen

Not sure, but I think the Training Arenas screen is for the Druid's Isle GH too. Can anyone confirm/deny? --- -- (s)talkpage  17:27, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Dunno, but HA uses the Underworld loading screen. Cress Arvein [[Image:Cress sig.JPG]] 18:42, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * What about FoW? Same as Underworld and HA, or same as Balthazar's statue in battle isles, since it's technically Balthazar's domain? RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg]] 22:46, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Great Idea
I've always wanted a page like this. Nice work -- (Talk) (Contr.) 17:39, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm done for now
you can start improving --◄mendel► 19:33, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

The best way to shoot them is to run (R key) through a portal with the interface off (Ctrl-Shift-H toggles it on and off) and hit the PrtScn key a few times as soon as the loading screen appears. Or have another player in the party, that gives you 10 seconds to Ctrl-Shift-H. Some images still need to be cropped at the top. --◄mendel► 19:51, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Heh, my loading times are so bad, I had plenty of time to cap them all.--[[Image:Marcopolo47 signature new.jpg]] (Talk) (Contr.) 22:48, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Thing is the ones you get by shooting them IG are all upscales and I think, cut down versions of the ones in the dat if you have a 4:3 ratio one - they are widescreen and much smaller than what you see ig Jennalee 10:19, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
 * That's what I was going to suggest - let me (or anyone else who knows how) pull them from Gw.dat so we can have them in their "native" resolution, instead of being scaled up. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 05:21, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Northern/Southern Shiverpeaks
Have exactly the same loading screen.-- (Talk) (Contr.) 20:35, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * And so does Sorrow's Furnace... Should we merge them all to one picture?--[[Image:Marcopolo47 signature new.jpg]] (Talk) (Contr.) 20:50, 29 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Maguuma and Training Arenas have the same pic, too. Dunno what to do, but unmerged means it's still categorised by area. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage  21:48, 29 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, this groups areas by loading screen, so the Shiverpeaks have to go together. Training Arenas goes to Maguuma because PvE is where the regions are. We assume the Zaishen train their beginners in the jungle. --◄mendel► 22:12, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Guild Halls
The Guild Hall loading screens seem somewhat buggy, in particular: --◄mendel► 22:56, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Isle of Meditation has Shing Jea environment and is listed with the Factions halls, but shows the Kryta loading screen
 * Isle of Wurms is clearly Nightfall's Desolation, but also shows Kryta
 * Isle of Solitude looks like Vabbi, but shows as Kourna.

Mission loading screens
The Factions cooperative missions seem to each have their own loading screen. (Vizahnuh local and foreign show Kaineng City). These loading screens show screenshots of the mission itself; they are not artistic renderings like the explorable and outpost loading screens. Do we want to put them on the page? I don't recall that happening in any other campaign? --◄mendel► 23:50, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually..This happens in several missions throughout the Prophecies campaign. [[Image:Rsz_PLSig.jpg‎]] 00:06, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Pretty sure it happens in Nightfall, too. They shouldn't all go on this page, but should probably be on the individual mission pages (if we ever implement a MissionInfo template, they would be great for that) and have a note here stating such.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 02:35, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
