Hello everyone...

 

No one willing to help...? Or you guys just help the people you already know. I am new here. At least say something that next time I don't post any topic. my question maybe looks stupid, but here is only place I can ask my question.

In, main.lua after the world is created and before the map is loaded draw your background image to screen.

 

-- world creation here

 

context:DrawImage(loadingImg, 0, 0)

context:Sync(false)

 

-- map loading here

 

 

I think that's the basic idea behind it.

Look at the API reference for Context. Context:DrawImage() will draw an image on the screen. Suggest going through the API Reference and the tutorials.

Thanks you very much Rick ... I did not know about Main.lua. In other topic people talked about App.lua I have never found it.

App.lua was the older way Josh did things. He changed to Main.lua but I'm sure the documentation wasn't fully updated everywhere.
