FastStartup

Lethal Company mod to skip the animations / splashes that play on game startup.

[!NOTE] FastStartup does not increase the load times of your game, it only skips the initial startup animations / splash screens.

Animations Skipped

• Startup Splashes
  • Unity watermark splash
  • Zeekerss (game developers) splash
• Boot Animation
• Launch Mode - defaults to Online
• Menu Animation (lil squash thingy)
• LAN mode warning popup (that mentions VPN / firewall usage)

Configuration

Everything that FastStartup does is configurable within the BepInEx/config/dev.flero.lethal.FastStartup.cfg file. The config file has comments that should explain what everything does. If you are confused, feel free to open an issue.

Note: You must have launched the game after installing the mod before the config file is generated.
