How to turn off the intro video?

Post by Ashcloud »

No disrespect to John but is there any way to switch off the intro video? One of the best things about the original JTCS is how fast it loads and gets you in the game - the faster the better and the video makes it take a good while longer. The game itself also takes substantially longer that JTCS to load so any way to speed it up would be greatly appreciated.

Copy the "novideo.txt" from the "\Video" folder to the main game folder.

Note to everybody: Another way to cut short the video is to press the 'x' close window control in the top right corner of WMPlayer (Windows Media Player).

But yes, the method to permanently disable all video plays is described in the FAQ here:
