Loading Screen isnt working in game

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

My game which is coming out soon, most stuff are done. I have encountered a problem with my loading screen. The code seems to be fine in studio, but in game, the logo doesnt load like its supposed to. Here is the code.

--// Services

local ReplicatedFirst = game:GetService('ReplicatedFirst')
local TS = game:GetService('TweenService')
local Players = game:GetService('Players')

--// Variables
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local playerGui = player:WaitForChild('PlayerGui')
local rotation = {}
rotation.Rotation = 5 
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
	1.2,
	Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,
	Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,
	-1,
	true,
	0
)

local screenUI = ReplicatedFirst:FindFirstChild('LoadingScreen')
screenUI.IgnoreGuiInset = true
screenUI.Parent = playerGui

playerGui:WaitForChild('Points').Enabled = false
playerGui:WaitForChild('UI').Enabled = false
playerGui:WaitForChild('MainUI').Enabled = false

local backFrame = playerGui:WaitForChild('LoadingScreen').BackFrame
local imageToTween = backFrame.WaterLabel
local textToChange = backFrame.Loaded
local tween1 = TS:Create(imageToTween, tweenInfo, rotation)
local tween2 = TS:Create(imageToTween, tweenInfo, {Rotation = -5})

textToChange.Text = "Loading.."

ReplicatedFirst:RemoveDefaultLoadingScreen()

tween1:Play()
tween2:Play()


wait(5)

if not game:IsLoaded() then
	game.Loaded:Wait()
end

textToChange.Text = "Loaded!"
print('Loaded!')
backFrame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.5,0,-5,0), Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, 2)
wait(1)
screenUI:Destroy()
playerGui:WaitForChild('Points').Enabled = true
playerGui:WaitForChild('UI').Enabled = true
playerGui:WaitForChild('MainUI').Enabled = true

So whats happening with my code? Any help would be nice :))

I’ll give it a shot, can you send me a picture of your explorer with all relevant objects so I can replicate the issue?

#4

Like wdym revelant objects? It is just a gui with a frame and image label lol

#5

The script is in the ReplicatedFirst?

#6

Yeah, it used parts of the developer hub which recommended the script be placed in replicated first so I can remove the default loading screen.

#7

Put ReplicatedFirst:RemoveDefaultLoadingScreen() line 1

#8

Tried it, the issues still seems to persist.

#9

An image of the heritage of all the objects like gui’s frames and scripts, I need to recreate it myself so I can see what the problem is

See if it’s your code or it’s the image not loading while in-game.

If it doesn’t work, try using PreloadAsync().

So this is the exact script I used:

--// Services
--// Services

local ReplicatedFirst = game:GetService('ReplicatedFirst')
local TS = game:GetService('TweenService')
local Players = game:GetService('Players')

--// Variables
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local playerGui = player:WaitForChild('PlayerGui')
local rotation = {}
rotation.Rotation = 5 
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
	1.2,
	Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,
	Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,
	-1,
	true,
	0
)

local screenUI = ReplicatedFirst:FindFirstChild('LoadingScreen')
screenUI.IgnoreGuiInset = true
screenUI.Parent = playerGui

--playerGui:WaitForChild('Points').Enabled = false
--playerGui:WaitForChild('UI').Enabled = false
--playerGui:WaitForChild('MainUI').Enabled = false

local backFrame = playerGui:WaitForChild('LoadingScreen').BackFrame
local imageToTween = backFrame.WaterLabel
local textToChange = backFrame.WaterLabel.Loaded
local tween1 = TS:Create(imageToTween, tweenInfo, rotation)
local tween2 = TS:Create(imageToTween, tweenInfo, {Rotation = -5})

textToChange.Text = "Loading.."

ReplicatedFirst:RemoveDefaultLoadingScreen()

tween1:Play()
tween2:Play()

wait(5)

if not game:IsLoaded() then
	game.Loaded:Wait()
end

textToChange.Text = "Loaded!"
print('Loaded!')
wait(2.35)
backFrame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.5,0,-5,0), Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, 2)
wait(2)
screenUI:Destroy()

playerGui:WaitForChild('Points').Enabled = true
playerGui:WaitForChild('UI').Enabled = true
playerGui:WaitForChild('MainUI').Enabled = true

And I made a little loading screen out of the objects you have (just without the localization tables)

And I got this result

(the tweening was a lot smoother but the gif made it look choppy)

It didnt work. It will work in studio but in game, it doesnt run right.

#14

I ran it in-game and got this:

So at this point I haven’t a clue what could be causing the problem. Maybe the position of the ui objects?

#15

My position is 0.5,0,0.5,0 The Zindex for the BackFrame is 99, the ImageLabel is 100 and the text labels zindex is 999999999

#16

Once again it loaded just fine (in-game). Can I see exactly how it’s not loading properly with a screenshot or video?

#17

#18

That looks good! Why isn’t that how you’d want it to load?

#19

The image is supposed to be in the center. Let me show you studio recordings.
