Scene transfer splash screen not working

Hey there!

So, I've been using the following function sucessfully to show a Texture before unloading a scene in Unity (and loading a new one).

 var image : Texture;
 
 function showScreen() {
     GUI.DrawTexture(Rect(0,0,Screen.width, Screen.height), image);
 }
 

I've been using this on the context of a menu (since the map wasn't designed back then), and it has always worked perfectly, showing up and "freezing" before the scene unloaded, and then the new scene would appear. However, after creating the map, I implemented this function to be used after the player pressed a button:

 function goWarp(destiny : String) {
     //map off
     swapStatus();
     
     //play anymation (future)
     
     //load new scene
     //show splash screen
     var go : GameObject = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("LoadScene");
     var scr : LoadScene = go.GetComponent(LoadScene);
     scr.showScreen();
     
     //save game first
     var save_obj : GameObject = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("SaveGame");
     var save_scr : SaveGame = save_obj.GetComponent(SaveGame);
      save_scr.Save();
     //load level
 
     
     
     scr.LoadScene(destiny);
     
 }

However, in this situation, the image doesn't even appear, and the scene freeze before showing the new scene.

So, is there anything that might be affecting it?

Thanks in advance
