Hey all, thanks for the interest! To set some expectations:

So there are two primary types of loading: Seamless and NonSeamless.

NonSeamless is the trickier one, as many of you know. I will briefly talk about some of the difficulties there, but full blown solutions are beyond the scope of the stream. I will however, speak to the work being done to address those issues.

Primarily I’ll be talking about Seamless travel, the easy kind

I’ll be streaming levels in and out behind a loading screen, and then we’ll modify it to stream in levels behind a realtime Level Sequence.

There are some other goodies in the project we can talk about outside of the Loading Screen topic, should we have some extra time.

Hi Alan,

One of the important thing is to provide the user with “Qualitative” information. Instead of just showing a simple “Loading…” message, can we provide more information like load percentage and the time remaining for the Game/Asset to load completely.

Even though a full blown solution is difficult to be covered in these training streams, can you at least touch on the methods/ways to achieve them.
