a drawing like an image to show over the video? It could a variety of things like set up a list of videos and have it select a random one if you wanted different loading screens that would be easy If you wanted the option of picking a random loading screen video to play from a list that would be easy to add in at this point.

As far as drawing an image that's really easy to implement as well but would it just be static? should it fade in and out? should it be an animated video like a video stack where your gif could be in video format and just stack it on top of the other video? doing something like stacking a video on top of another video would make it possible to have different loading bars while keeping one video in the background the same. there's literally tons of possibilities here lol

 I'm actually getting kind of close to finishing the basic loading screen functionality already, though I haven't tested anything at all yet but It's pretty straightforward to implement.

Wow, that's really cool!

My idea is to put up several videos, and then choose just one of them to play at that moment. 

The next time the player clicks on start new game, or loads an old one, the same thing happens.

And if that's easy for you to do, then I won't feel bad about asking lol

Yeah that's not hard for me to do. It's basically just copy pasting and editing some code which already exists in my plugin and hooking it in using a similar method as the pre-title and idle videos. So making a list of videos and picking a random one is something the plugin already does, I'd just need to repurpose some code to do things slightly different to accomplish this for a loading screen.

I'm glad to hear it's not a burden for you.

I just uploaded version 1.0 of the loading screen extension plugin, I decided to make it a separate plugin. It'll work as a standalone or alongside Title Movie plugin. We'll call it a bonus plugin :)

Let me know how it goes and if there's anything else that would be useful which could be added.

Thank you very much! ^^

I'll let you know of any problems.
