It might have been added as an official feature, but thank you so much for having made this mod. You have saved thousands of people thousands of hours of time!

The devs have made this an official option now, but thank you so much for this mod!

And so, finally this mod is obsolete. Never thought I'd see the day.

Yup, the devs finally implemented this as a setting. It has been a pleasure, thank you for this mod!

New open beta has this option included.
Thank you for your service, I've had this mod always in use even when I've otherwise played pure vanilla.

Working perfectly as of today. Thanks for the excellent mod!

Thank you that was so annoying af.

Thank you jebus, cool one time.. less so after many.

I would take a bullet for you!

@Donkornleone I think I looked into it but for some reason decided against it. Can't remember xD. Right now I'm too busy with game dev to work on it.

Any chance you can get rid of the logos, too?

Still works even in my stack of 50+ hastily chosen mods. +1

@jpinard
I wish you a speedy recovery.
An alternative way to skip the intro video is to rename the video file that gets played into something different. It achieves the same thing as my mod. Only you will probably need to redo that step whenever you verify the game files and it redownloads the file.

Thanks for responding. I've been beating myself up over this. I had a double lung transplant recently and my brain hasn't been good ever since.

It use to work around release, but no for whatever reason it's not working for me anymore. I have One Drive disabled/uninstalled on my win 11

@SpacePoon and @Olorin - did you ever get it to work?

I wonder if the problems are OneDrive related.

@SpacePoon
I own all DLC's but they have no influence on this mod.
I can only tell you that as far as I'm aware everything is nominal and you'll have to look on your end.

Well re-subbing didn't work either. I even manually deleted all workshop folders and re-installed game so it would for sure download new files and still doesn't work. Do you own the DLCs?

@SpacePoon
I tested it just now with just my mod and it still works.

Doesn't work for me anymore

Odd, I'll try again, thanks for the heads up

@Olorin No? I just tested it and it still works as always. I can only suspect that you have some kind of conflict or broken files. Maybe try redownloading and / or verifying integrity.

Seems to have trouble working nowadays :/

THANK YOU!
I was having the issue of the paradox splash screen just freezing forever no matter what I press or hold. Your mod suddenly fixed it and finally the game takes less than multiple minutes to start.
Less than 10 seconds actually.
So again, thank you!

@Arc Angel
Yes. But be aware that multiplayer seems to have achievements disabled for some reason.

Can we still get achievements?

Neat, thank you!

Ha. They should have known we'd want to disable the intro!

The text saying: "You shouldn't see this :D" comes from the devs and is showing up because the video was skipped and the underlying scene becomes visible I think.

Wait, you're saying we *should* see the text that says we shouldn't see it...? Who do I trust?!?

Thank you!

do the job
thank you!
