Requirements

None. The resource is standalone — no framework, no ox_lib, no SQL.

​
Steps

  1. Drop the nex_loadingscreen folder into your resources/ directory. Any subfolder is fine, e.g. resources/[nex]/nex_loadingscreen/.
  2. Add it to your server.cfg: 
    ensure nex_loadingscreen
  3. Restart the server.
The loading screen appears the next time a player connects.
Only one loading screen can be active at a time. If you previously used another loading-screen resource (loadingscreen-, default_loading_screen, etc.) make sure to remove or disable it in server.cfg first.

​
Checking it worked

Connect to the server. You should see the NEX loading screen with the animated background and music player. From F8 (after spawning in): 
lua print(GetResourceState('nex_loadingscreen'))
Should print started. If it prints missing or stopped, fix server.cfg and restart.

​
Updating

lua/config.lua is listed under escrow_ignore, so your settings, songs, links, tips and theme survive updates.
  1. Replace the resource files with the new version (keep your edited lua/config.lua, and the html/assets/audio/, html/assets/images/, and html/assets/logo.png files you’ve added).
  2. Restart the resource: 
    restart nex_loadingscreen
    Players already connected won’t see the new screen until next join.
