How to wait until all the assets in my game are loaded?

[MasonX890]

How can I wait until all the assets in my game are loaded in a script?

[hasoco (Kenpachi Zaraki)]

repeat wait() until game:IsLoaded()

There isnt really a way to do that sadly.

An easy way would be to wait for the game to load like the example above me

Hey just a small tip. Hope you dont mind me giving some quick advice:

Dont use wait() wait is deprecated. Use the task library instead. It has a new updated version of wait called “task.wait()”

[hasoco (Kenpachi Zaraki)]

Alright, I was just in a rush

[Dede_4242]

Yes but task.wait() will keep going even after you destroy the script (from what I heard)

[AmoraFolf (Amora)]

I’m not sure, but even if it does, it wouldn’t matter much anyways since that script doesn’t even exist to do anything anymore lol

[Dede_4242]

Yeah you’re right

You can use a method that’s called PreloadAsync within the ContentProvider service, what this will do is take a table of Instances to yield for, and will resume the script once it’s done loading all the assets

Something to keep note of, is that this method has 2 parameters:

• A table of Instances to store and yield/wait for
• An optional callback function when each individual asset has been loaded by the method

local CP = game:GetService("ContentProvider")

local AssetsToLoad = {workspace.Baseplate, workspace.RandomPart}

CP:PreloadAsync(AssetsToLoad) -- This is a yielding function, so the print statement under this will NOT fire 

print("Done loading all assets!")

Even the API reference gives you a code sample on how to use it, so make sure to keep it into consideration

-- Code Sample from "PreloadAsync"
local ContentProvider = game:GetService("ContentProvider")

local sound = Instance.new("Sound")
sound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://9120386436"
local decal = Instance.new("Decal")
decal.Texture = "rbxassetid://5447528495"

local assets = {
	decal,
	sound,
	"rbxassetid://5173222739",
	"rbxthumb://type=Avatar&w=100&h=100&id=269323",
}

-- Preload the content and time it
local startTime = os.clock()
ContentProvider:PreloadAsync(assets)
local deltaTime = os.clock() - startTime
print(("Preloading complete, took %.2f seconds"):format(deltaTime))

@Herobrinekd1 You should consider researching a tad bit first before assuming that there’s “no way” to load assets, refer to what I just said earlier before making your claim

@hasoco

until game:IsLoaded()

Would the code be task.wait() game:IsLoaded()?

[hasoco (Kenpachi Zaraki)]

repeat task.wait() until game:IsLoaded()

Look here
