Before beginning of game, how to load images?

I am developing a game with a lot of images (Photo I took myself), they have large size. I don't want bad player experience because they have to wait for the pictures to load when playing. Having said my situation, my question should actually be three questions: 1. How to load all pictures before game start? 2. How do I know when all pictures are loaded? 3. The loading progress bar, can this be really showing the real loading progress?

Its a concept but maybe you can work on it Create an array of link of your images And a variable called progress Then cache the image using new Image() also add an onload listener, it'll add value to progress indicating 1 imange are loaded Once progess == arrayoflink.length then all the image are loaded and you should be able to work on progress bar with progress variable edit: i tempted to make one 😄 https://code.sololearn.com/WCZaHjViG0Ve/?ref=app

Similar concept https://code.sololearn.com/WEEl1g03B3Vx/ EDIT: ╰☆☆ S͎p͎e͎a͎r͎y͎ ☆☆╮ I just realized that you want a progress callback. If you understood my code, its easy add this feature else i can add it

Thanks Taste and KrOW , both way works for preloading images. Thanks Because Taste's also solve my question 3 about reflecting the progress, I'll award the Best Answer to Taste. Meanwhile, I thank you again to both of you. If you don't mind, I let you look at my drafts😆
