T:DS - Load Up Screens - Can these be disabled ?

Archived from groups: alt.games.thief-dark-project (More info?)

When I start up the program I see :

(1) Eidos water graphics - Pretty but not needed.

(2) ION - Storm - green graphics also not needed.

(3) Thief font and sound credits. - Not needed in this location
they could have made a (A)bout area if they needed it that bad.

(4) Nvida AD - Also not needed.

(5) Sounds Blaster Audigy 2 advertisement - Also useless


How can I get rid of all that junk ?

It looks a lot better now. Now it just loads at that
Thief screen where "G" is looking over the city.

I simply deleted all intro clips from CONTENT/T3/
VideoTextures-folder. Perhaps a bit brutal, but does
the trick - and frees a bit valuable disk space to
better use :-)

I think the intro movie shows if you sit at the start screen for
awhile without touching anything.
