PSA for Modding background screens
A and B
A add the Loading screen (duh) in the gfx/loadingscreens
B: edit the backgrounds text in common/frontend/backgrounds/ if you only want one background just delete everything and copy the format of the base game loading screens( at bottom of the text). if you want more i havent tested this but you might be able to add more of the formats so you can have more background images but you also need to have both a small loading screen for it and a large one

C and D
C: you have to make the sprite. what i did was edit the frontendmainviewbg.gfx found in the interface file to have the loading screen of your choice by simple editing the name (from something loading screen "normal screen" to your one). you can probably edit the directory enterly too
D(maybe): you might have to add in your mod description replace path gfx loading screens.
Conclusion
The reason im making this is cause i didnt see any other tutorials online for this and it caused me a lot of trouble because for some reason it kept crashing both my game and the main game idk if this is related though. I probably got something wrong or did something inefficent so correct me if you know better.
