Hi, I’m trying to quickly change the preloader image with a simple puzzle (basically just replace the verge3D logo with my own and keep the same loading bar).

I tried to use the example set style background-image puzzle from the documentation, but it doesn’t work – I’ve tried using an external URL and local file link but the closest result I can get is the verge3D logo disappears.

Hi,
It’s possible that your image is huge and does not fit well in the preloader. Also I’d recommend loading images from your app folder (specify file name without any paths).

Hey, I’ve tried using both online & offline image loading, the image is 1000×500 roughly – I’m not sure if I’m using the correct syntax for a local file either… Is there any further documentation for this, I’m really struggling to get it to change.

EDIT: – I’ve tried reducing size, using different images e.t.c 200px square, 500×250 e.t.c I can get the verge3d logo to disappear, but not change.

Hi,

can you attach a simple project for us to check?

I downloaded it but it’s quite big and I’m not sure where is what. It would be great if you created a really small project using the default cube template and placed the puzzles that don’t work as expected. Thanks!

Hi, I’ve uploaded a new project and added some objects so you can see the loader – as you can see the puzzle doesn’t seem to change the image.

Hi,

apparently it does not like your double quotes

so it worked when I used single quotes

That works, how strange – thank you again for your help.

What do you think of the project so far? http://labs.greenretreats.co.uk/HTH_Verge3D/

Ready to deploy soon and we’ll be picking up a team licence from you guys, really enjoying using Verge3D!

looks cool! my only suggestion is that you load just one model at startup, and only load the other ones by user request. This will make it launch much faster. See the demo ‘Load Unload’ or ‘Jewelry Configurator’ for an example.
