Silent Startup & Loading Game.

[Sam the T-man]

I get it Saidie 79 after the loading screen is done entering Pleasantville or Strangetown there’s a short movie clip of the camera drifting into the hood before it loads up the neighborhood it self. Yeah I would like that to be removed too if that’s what your talking about.

I was able to stop the Sims videos showing every time you start the game which goes strait to the loading screen showing Apartment life. Saves a ton of time waiting to play the game.

That's exactly what I'm on about The movies right at the start are an easy one - just delete from the Movies folder; I have to do that every time I need to reinstall :roll: Wish it was that easy with these other ones though :scratch:

As for the silent loading, you need to delete every splash.package from Program Files; base game right through the SPs and EPs you have x_x Otherwise it just plays the music from whichever one you've missed - found that out the hard way.

I mainly use maxis hoods, and never have gotten the in-hood fly-by intro since I have put Gunmod's Camera Hack in. So I am quite surprised that you still get the fly-by.

In actual fact I would love to have it back!:sad4:

Hrm, that's interesting.

Fancy a swap? My camera files for yours

I do get the fly by in Maxis 'hoods and have Gunmod's camera mod installed. BUT I am not bothered by that as long as I don't have to see the craptastic movie intro every time I start up the game. That I already disabled. I like speedy startups and loathe junk from the second I clicked on the icon to start up the game to the neighborhood screen.

I just turned the music of with the in-game settings thingy. Now I can listen to my radio while building a house and loading the game etc, without the extremely annoying music.
Sadie, if you press a key those movies will quit, like the movie that loads when starting the game.
I use my space bar a lot.
