I have made a custom loading screen.

In this code, I have tried to implement a thing where it downloads textures, but it doesn't work. The textures are just loaded when the player views them (It's very obvious they're downloading when it gets to it)

Is there something I'm not doing right?

game.ReplicatedFirst:RemoveDefaultLoadingScreen()
local screen = game.ReplicatedFirst.LoadingGui:Clone()
screen.Parent = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
screen.LoadingFrame.LoaderScript.Disabled = false

-- load a bunch of assets
local assets = {77176863, 77178853, 77178961, 77177517, 77178079,
77179215, 77181816, 77182204, 77188373, 77183036, 77187285,
246619223, 10526794, 131573697, 232223678, 138129320, 157869722,
252497073, 252497112, 252497163, 252497179, 252497213, 252497238,
252497267, 252497298, 252497324}
for _, asset in ipairs(assets) do
game.ContentProvider:Preload("http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=" .. asset)
end

local top = game.ContentProvider.RequestQueueSize
local count = 0
local slice
while game.ContentProvider.RequestQueueSize > 0 do
count = game.ContentProvider.RequestQueueSize
wait(0.33)
end

screen.Parent = nil

THis is what I thought, but the textures are very clearly loading as the player views it.

I wonder if it downloads into an internal cache and is then displayed on demand?

Try preloading each texture individually and see if that works.

Yeah it will take some time lol, but it may work.
just to test to see if the service is working.
