    I wonder how you will feel when you realize that by fixing this bug, you created 6 more (which was probably masochiwesp's plan in the first place)

    Also found a way to make the unofficial patch allow skipping the intro when installed over a newly installed game, to skip that tedious, buggy cutscene in your 10th playthrough.

    In other wesp news, he was right about something in a thread I was just reading from his permanent internet record.

    There was some long rant about how he was very angry that every time a piece of loot got loaded all its materials got loaded even though it was only shown on a tiny screen size. Everyone made fun of him because of mipmaps but it is true, before the mipmap gets created the whole material has to get loaded.

    But then the only other option is to have to manually set LODs for different levels for every material and that's kind of retarded. So it's kind of a tradeoff situation but it does suck for modders because when you have 70000 modder packs to draw from you quickly run into problems loading and unloading crap which doesn't stay on the screen more than two seconds.

    No it can't be skipped unless you have a savegame already. Solution: put in a fake save game there, the load/save screen ignores it.

    I can't remember anything about this, are you sure you are talking about me here ;)? The thread topic is true though, I will use the fake save game solution in my next upcoming Unofficial Patch :)!
