i was wondering if anyone knew how to make a screenshot for the loading screen for your map, also when picking a map to play in the skirmish menu how can you make a overhead screenshot to show your map before you play?

In the battleaxe 2.0 map there is a file called "loading" and has a .tga file in it. When played the loading screen is a tank in the desert. Maybe contact the maker of that map and see how the coding works. I havnt seen anyone get a map screenie for the selection screen though.

I have found out the secret.

-Make a folder called "loading" in your maps folder.
-Make a picture you want to use and save it as a targa file (.tga) in your loading folder (Should be located in C://Program Files/THQ/Company of Heroes/WWII/Data/Scenarios/mp/"your map"/loading/)
-Load the game and start your map, you should see you image you put in the loading folder.
