Isn’t that what level streaming is for, HEGI? I recall that back… one or two major versions ago it used to be buggy and you still were thrown back to Steam every now and then, but at least it wasn’t all the time. I’m not sure if it’s fixed now, should be… I would hope so.

As for everyone else:
I seen someone using following trick:
- Stream a “splash screen level” - basically just an empty environment with your splash screen and some lights.
- Unload your previous level…
- …and then stream the actual level you’d like to load.
Here’s a doc with all the stuff you would need to accomplish that.
ps. Billboards you might want to use for splash screen appear to be buggy?
