Updated 2/11/2024: The config.cpp file is now located in the Scripts folder instead of the root folder of the addon. If the screen just white, ensure that you used a support image resolution as mentioned in the video. Also make sure the file name is correct, if your edds file has been renamed or moved to a different location without updating the config.cpp you will get a white screen! Also, some people have reported the following error when adding their server to the DZSA: "Something went wrong, The mod 'YourModName' has a Steam Workshop ID of '0'". This error can happen when you upload your mod and never make any changes, this can be fixed by pushing any update. You do not need to change the addon file itself, changing the Steam Workshop description page via DayZ Publisher will work just fine.
@@neilton202 Just re-publish your version of that workshop with slightly changes like the description of the workshop. You do not need to change anything else.
Literal Saint, been trying to figure the stuff out but I had no idea where to start with my coding skills. Thanks for making everything easy to understand and to navigate
Hello, passing by to say that your videos are very good and very well explained. I'm from Brazil, but I can extract a lot of information with your videos!
Hopefully you respond quickly 🙏 I can't find my override button to override that loading screen.edds. I tried deleting it and pasting my loading screen.edds in but it won't work on the workshop
Hi, This is what I get! Something went wrong, Error: Error: The mod 'Alien Island PvE (Newest)' has a Steam Workshop ID of '0'. Can somebody help me please! Thanks in advance.
It was working great but since the update 1.22, when a player respawns after dying on the map he gets the loading screen and then a black screen and the games stops. Are there others who also experience this?
Yes, I've been experiencing the same thing. Saw on reddit people saying since 1.22 the scripting on the custom loading screen mods needs to be updated. :[ Big sad since I have no clue how to do that and have upcoming events I'm hosting that need custom loading screens. I've tried multiple peoples videos, methods, and whatnot and still get the crash after trying to respawn.
Great video, but I’m running into a issue. I can load up my server and spawn in but when I die and wait the 15sec count down it just black screens after the count down has ended and won’t spawn me in
Works great! however since adding a custom loading screen my server is no longer visible in DZSA launcher? it's the only modification i've made since it was last showing..Any ideas?
When I do this, whenever my player dies and I respawn I get a black screen, memory overload and have to kill the dayZ process. I know its the loading screen because when I remove it this issue does not happen.
So the loading screen works but players get a black screen when they try to respawn back in the server after they get killed and does nothing? Any suggestions?
@@19engdahl Yes, Don't use workshop to convert image to PAA. Google image to PAA and use the online one to convert. Also .EDDS files work better, look up video create by every1knowsdave on creating mainmenu and Josietest loading screen. Make sure the image is saved as 1920 X 1080
Would it be possible to have a video be played instead of a solid background? I am assuming not, but you seem to be the most knowledgeable to date, with DayZ loading screen on the internet! Thank you for any feedback!
Followed this multiple times and it just doesn't fully work for me.. Doesn't download when you try to connect and the image doesn't fill the screen when on the loading part.
i have done these exact steps 3 times now (on HostHavoc) with a *1440 and *1080 just to be sure...added the mod, added to the command line, restart...and crash. I have no idea why
So i followed your instructions step by step... I am using GTX as my server host. I install the mod and add to my mod config line and now the server will not start. Please help
When you say that this does not work with Expansion, do you mean that you cannot have a custom loading screen on your server if you also have Expansion mods? Because I do, and I am having issues.
im getting "This item is awaiting analysis by our automated content check system. It will be temporarily hidden until we verify that it does not contain harmful content (e.g. links to websites that attempt to steal information)." will that be why im getting a white screen and missing PBO
That is normal, and typically goes away within an hour. The white screen is typically an issue with your image. Might be the wrong size, wrong name/location, incorrectly packed addon, etc.
Could you do a quick video on how to set up a server running deer isle? I can seem to figure out how to setup all the other maps just fine, but that one is more tricky and i cant figure it out. Love your videos! Thanks!
Watched your video and made a loading screen for 2 different events and everything was fine. After the 1.22 update I made another one but found out that after dying and trying to respawn, you'd get kicked from the server with this message: Warning (0x00040031) You were kicked off the game. Login error: Login timed out. (WaitPreloadCamRespawnState). It's been awhile and I tried again using your video and provided files and am getting the same error. I've watched other videos and used other peoples provided files but same error. I'm at wits end and seen some people in the comments are having the same problem. Any advice or fix?
@@terrorwolf4576 just saw on github he updated the file 3 weeks ago from typing this and it states that the respawn issue should be fixed so I'm going to go ahead and try it out and see what happens.
More than likely the file structure is not correct, I recommend double-checking the placement of everything to ensure it is in the correct location. You can provide a screenshot of your folder structure here, or join my Discord (linked in the video description) and post in the #support channel and myself or someone else could take a look.
@@TheGamingChief yeah tried that and reinstalled, can't find any info about issue online. I ended up using text view to change image extention. Not sure what's wrong bit the loading screen isn't working
I did it all but when added to my command line .. my server didn’t start up because of it . Any hint off the top of your head that I may have missed or did wrong ?
Something went wrong, Error: Error: The mod '@loadingscreen' has a Steam Workshop ID of '0'. i keep getting this error after pushing an update on publisher is there another fix
Quick question: I'm trying to run workbench but it claims its not installed. There is a red "N" next to workbench at the bottom of the tools launcher. Any ideas?
Tried to reach you on the Disocord: "I followed the video on adding your own loading screen. Everything has worked even being recognized in the server to turn on the mod. Selected Clientside. Key is in the Keys folder, Mod is in as a @FILENAME for the mod name. Everything should be working. But after dropping this mod in, now my server reboots 2-3 times, then stays in an offline mode after. I have removed the mod, and it's working just fine again. Not sure what's going on here. Everything was signed correctly, I mean everything worked out perfectly as per the steps in the video. So I'm at a loss now." I've gone through the whole process 3 times now, removed the mod off Steam and even re-added as a new mod, and still nothing. Below I see a comment with something about a config.cpp file, now located in the scripts folder. I'm not seeing anything about how to get that added in correctly either. Can you help by chance?
Could I please get some help I’ve followed this tutorial twice now but still can’t get the image to work, my screen just goes white when I load in, any help would be greatly appreciated!!
I recommend double-checking the image, typically the white screen is caused due to an issue with the image itself. You can use my example image to verify if that is the case or not.
Hey great video, i got one question. When theres a mistake made on the custom loading screen do we have to follow all these steps again and re-upload it? Or is it possible to just change the .png?
You would need to update the png, convert it to a edds file, copy back into your mod, repack it, and update the published mod. So yeah, you would need to repeat a lot of steps but you wouldn't need to create a new workshop item, just update it.
Followed the video to a tee, join my server, custom loading screen is there but then kicked out with a data verification error stating i have a pbo that is not part of the server (my loading screen mod)! mod is installed server side, is set to load in the commandline, lists it on DZSA and vanilla launcher but keep getting kicked... anyone have any ideas?
Is it possible to use multiple loading screens with your mod? someone told me that yours override Pripyat mod and Expansion mod's loadings and that would be really handy to me!
I have thought about it before, the issue is menu screens are typically pretty custom. I might make a basic template and provide that instead in a video.
Am trying to do this on console so my question is if i was going to upload this to my server where would the files go as you can't us steam so need to know where they go
I just done a loading screen for my mates server and when you load in the loading screen come up but then it says " Client has a PBO which is not part of the server" i cant figure out why as i have installed the mod on pingperfect as normal and the mod is downloaded and subscribed...any thoughts? great video by the way very helpful
Check your server RPT logs to confirm the mod is actually loading on the server. Also ensure the key you used to sign the addon is copied into the keys folder on the server.
Unfortunatly same here. Workbench crash everytime I try to do the convert and import to .edds. Sometimes the file is generated but must be corrupted because my server cashes on start.
i followed step by step but i tried to load in and it said PBO error and telling me either me or the game host has a PBO error, Ever experienced this before i was thinking pixles size might have been wrong but should have been what you showed so idk
So after i uploaded the loading screen i see it when loading in but then it says my client has a mod thats not part of the server even tho it is how do i fix this?
is it possibile to get more than 1 image to display? like not the same every time. And is it possibile to get server messages in the bottom like you can with expansion?
Not with this template, the DayZ Expansion loading screen template it is possible with. I'm sure it's possible to have several images without Expansion, I just have not seen a template for it yet.
Hi ! I followed each step but when I install the mod, it doesn't display on DZSA launcher, and when I load it and start the game from the vanilla launcher, it gives me a white loading screen. Any idea of what went wrong ? I started with a 1920x1080 PNG file
For the DZSAL issue make sure it give it time to update or force an update from dayzsalauncher.com/#/servercheck. As far as the whitescreen goes, that is almost always an issue with the image file. You can try using the image file included to verify this or not.
Hello, thank you for video, i did every step like you explained but everytime i start on the server its getting only a white blank page loading screen, do you know this problem?
@@TheGamingChief I have a problem too, server works fine and mod too but when i enter it loads and then freezes, server says i'm joined but 'm stuck at loading screen

I Was wondering if you could do another walk-through tutorial video on how to do a custom loading screen for the Azle map because I am unable get it to function correctly I'm trying to do this walkthrough does not work for me probably something I'm doing or it could be the map
Very good and easy to follow video. Only issue I had is that the launcher does not prompt to download the mod automatically. It gives the choose action selection and people have to download it manually. Any help with this?
i get to the point where it tells me to delete the mete file and I am lost WHERE do i find the file you say i need to download??????? from your github? lost here
@theGamingChief It can be done with several images that change, I have seen it on some servers, you can comment on how to do it, thank you very much. NO WORK
This version of the loading screen does not support music. The DayZ Expansion loading screen mod will allow several images and maybe music. Hopefully more videos on those subjects soon.
Hi! I followed this tutorial and got the mod uploaded to Steam, but something is corrupt and it's causing my server to shut down, or load incorrectly. I was getting the Steam Workshop ID of '0' error, but I did as you said and made a couple of changes to the mod name/description and re-uploaded, but the same problem is persisting. I can't find your Discord server... is there some way I could reach out to someone for help diagnosing the problem?
Hello The GameChief. Thanks for that nice tutorial! Did you ever create a c-file for a slideshow for loading screens for DayZ servers? I am not comfortable in programming C ;-) Cheers. .:. lutz
Is the server fully starting, I have seen this happen if the server is in a crash reboot loop. I would check that and then ensure it is properly added as a regular mod on the server.
@@TheGamingChief server starts fine. i have some other small mods as its a small dm server but nothing that would cause issues i guess. it basicaly removes all loaded mods when i load the loadingscreen. i got in to the server just fine , any clues on what it could be?
@@TheGamingChief think it was because i used spacing without _ in the name. it worked now :) now i only ask why it starts at windowed and not fullscreen and how do i fix that?
When i register and import i get Blank image and Resources : PNGTextureLoader: Currently unsupported format Anyone shed light on this? Im using Online Gimp to create an image
You can add the Loadingscreen.pbo to your existing addons. You can add it into another PBO file but it would require extra configuration, I would just add Loadingscreen.pbo to your existing workshop addon.
@@TheGamingChief I should have listened to the end of the Video.. I am running expansion.. Doh... But Video was super easy to follow and steps are straight forward.. I look forward to your Expansion Version
If the screen is white something is wrong with your image. I recommend double checking the resolution and ensuring it was a png file before re-saving it in DayZ Workbench.

Does loading screen music not work currently?
This version of the loading screen does not support music. The DayZ Expansion loading screen mod will allow several images and maybe music. Hopefully more videos on those subjects soon.
Hi! I followed this tutorial and got the mod uploaded to Steam, but something is corrupt and it's causing my server to shut down, or load incorrectly. I was getting the Steam Workshop ID of '0' error, but I did as you said and made a couple of changes to the mod name/description and re-uploaded, but the same problem is persisting. I can't find your Discord server... is there some way I could reach out to someone for help diagnosing the problem?
I'm having this issue too :(
can you use several pictures? so, three or four, they change when loading?
Not with this mod, the expansion version of the loading screen can do more than one image (video on this in the next couple of weeks or so).
Hello The GameChief. Thanks for that nice tutorial!
Did you ever create a c-file for a slideshow for loading screens for DayZ servers? I am not comfortable in programming C ;-)
Cheers. .:. lutz
It's on the list! It likely will only support expansion loading screens though.
HOW TO MAKE 2 OR 5 NEXT SCREEN LOADING ?
ive done everything but my loading screen is white and cant fix. please help lol
Ensure the file is a png before opening it in DayZ Workbench. Also verify you are using a supported image size.
@@TheGamingChief png verified and 2560x1440 using gimp but still cant seem to get it from being white
my server wont start after adding the mod, deerisle
No expansion right? Check your RPT and crash logs and you’ll see why it’s happening.
when i load it all my other mods dont load in the launcher. whats causing this?
Is the server fully starting, I have seen this happen if the server is in a crash reboot loop. I would check that and then ensure it is properly added as a regular mod on the server.
@@TheGamingChief server starts fine. i have some other small mods as its a small dm server but nothing that would cause issues i guess. it basicaly removes all loaded mods when i load the loadingscreen. i got in to the server just fine , any clues on what it could be?
Yeah, RPT logs, and crash logs, Omega logs. I would look into all of those, somewhere you'll see what is causing your issue.
@@TheGamingChief think it was because i used spacing without _ in the name. it worked now :) now i only ask why it starts at windowed and not fullscreen and how do i fix that?
Ah, that would likely do it. Double-check your game is set as full screen in general. I've seen that randomly change before.
When i register and import i get Blank image and Resources : PNGTextureLoader: Currently unsupported format Anyone shed light on this? Im using Online Gimp to create an image
Did you export the image as a PNG from Gimp? Sounds like you're trying to import a non-PNG image.
Yes I use export as .png, but i think i cracked it your advice made me rethink and i belive its working.. Many thanks your video series is amazing.
There´s no config.cpp in the Zip
config.cpp is now in the Scripts folder after an update a few months ago. I have updated the pinned comment to hopefully prevent confusion.
thsi doesnt need to be its own addon i can just add it to my maps pbo pack right (custom map)
You can add the Loadingscreen.pbo to your existing addons. You can add it into another PBO file but it would require extra configuration, I would just add Loadingscreen.pbo to your existing workshop addon.
@@TheGamingChief perfect, learning all this as i go along but so far have a great new map comming
No matter what i do it comes up with an error and i followed the video every step...
Any particular error? Might be able to point you in the right direction.
My server was deleted when I installed it all my configuration
Followed this step by Step as you did it.. and For some reason I cant get it to load..
Like the new image doesn’t display? Or a particular error is displayed?
@@TheGamingChief I should have listened to the end of the Video.. I am running expansion.. Doh... But Video was super easy to follow and steps are straight forward.. I look forward to your Expansion Version
Doesn't work with 1.25
The screen turns white
If the screen is white something is wrong with your image. I recommend double checking the resolution and ensuring it was a png file before re-saving it in DayZ Workbench.
@@TheGamingChief same issue. using PNG followed your video to the T
