Intro mod

This is a DIY (do-it-yourself) mini-mod.

The intro/outro movies are governed by the script in \DATA\SCRIPTS00.BIF\MOVIES.LUC. Decompile this script using any utility that is listed in the LUC format article under the file formats category.

Open up the resulting file in any text editor.

The first three lines describe the movies to be played by the scripts, but we will focus on the first line only - the intro:

You can add/remove movies as you want. For now, we change the line to this:

This way, only the intro movie will be played - no need to wait for loading each movie and now we need to press ESC only once if we wanted to skip it.

You may modify the other parts of the script as you please, but when you're done, save the script as MOVIES.LUA. Finally, drop the MOVIES.LUA to the \DATA\OVERRIDE directory (you might need to create the OVERRIDE directory under \DATA), and you're done. Enjoy your mini-mod.
