How to prevent intro movie from playing?

Well you see, most other games only make you watch the intro movies once. Next time you play it doesn't show up but ingame movies are still there. I guess I'll turn off all movies then. I'm in the middle of a campaign right now so there aren't any ingame movies to watch.

Krauser, adding the -nm command line may also reduce the initial loading time for the game. It certainly made the menus much more smooth and fast for me. There are other useful command line options as well. Check them out. You may increase your gaming experience.

Remember to put a space before the -nm

What other commands are there, and where are they listed?

I've done stuff like this before for Diablo II. e.g."-w" makes it windowed mode.

I found the command line options at http://rtw.heavengames.com/rtw/mods/...d_line_options

But they may be here on the org as well. I havn't checked.

Just delete the movies directly in \Data\fmv\ , leave the subdirectories alone. You will now still see the other movies, but R:TW will be loaded more quickly.

ah, I just press escape twice every time the activision logo starts loading. Just a quick double-tap and the first thing that loads after the screen lights up again is the menu.
