Uh, well, not a great deal of a mod, just a little thing from me wink.png” data-emoticon=”” srcset=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x” width=”20″ height=”20″>

 

I like to get rid of introductory videos, and i succesfully deleted logos.wmv and nvidia_logo.bik in /sds/video/ wink.png” data-emoticon=”” srcset=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x” width=”20″ height=”20″>

 

However if i delete logos.bik, game halts on loading and crashes. sad.png” data-emoticon=”” srcset=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x” width=”20″ height=”20″>

I don’t know if this happens on any version, or if it’s just me doing something wrong, and i wasn’t

able to diagnose why, but i was still finding it nagging, so i prepared a edited, very short

version of it, which is nearly un-influent on loading time. O0 ^-^

 

Although i do not consider file editing a “clean” kill, this it’s the best effort i managed until now.

 

I don’t know if this may work for your version of the game, but if you like to give it a try,

you can find it in downloads section.

 

_BEWARE_

 

DO NOT FORGET to keep a copy of your original file, it may not work, or simply not be in your likings.

It depends on which version of the game you are running.

As far as i know, only early retail version (single dvd localized) is the only one affected by this.

It has been sold in europe only, those with US and steam does not need this stuff, and can

simply delete the videos. <img decoding=” data-emoticon=”” srcset=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x” width=”20″ height=”20″> bigeyes.gif
