How could I make a login loading bar ?

Good morning !

Im struggling with a good loading bar approach... currently once my player clicks on "login" the package is sent to the server ,where it checks if the username/password is valid. If so all user specific & server configuration data is sent to the client... the scene should start once all data is received... therefore a loading bar should be shown... any ideas how I could do that ?

This much process actually happens very quick. So maybe you an fake a loading bar for 1s and fill it fully once the update arrives back.

Usually the best idea is not to use a percentage bar, instead use an animated icon (or bar) that does not show a specific progress and simply invites the user to wait a bit.

As Zenith said, most of the times the login process is so quick that users won't even be able to see the loading screen.

Cheers
