If you want to skip automatically the Mustafar introduction movie, you will need to make a configuration change to the game before this is possible.
Disclaimer: Please read and understand the entire procedure before attempting this.
Open notepad (or your favorite text editor) and paste these two lines into it:
[ClientGame] disableCutScenes=1
For this to work, you must save it as the proper file type since notepad will save it as a .txt file by default.
Save the file into your SWG folder. Unless you installed it into a different location, it will be C:\Program Files\StarWarsGalaxies
Name the file user.cfg
Click the "Save as type" drop down list and select: All Files
WinXP
Vista
THIS STEP IS VERY IMPORTANT If you do not change the file type, Notepad will actually save the file as user.cfg.txt (even though you won't see the .txt extension) and it won't work.
Congratulations!
The Mustafar introduction movie will now be skipped.
Some Important Notes
- If the user.cfg file already exists in your SWG folder, just add the additional line to it.
- Exit out of the game before doing this. It will not work if the game is already running.
- If it doesn't work, it is very likely that you didn't change the "Save as type" selection.
- This is a configuration change and is NOT considered a client mod so it does not violate the EULA.
Windows Vista Notes Vista comes with an annoying thing called User Account Control (UAC) enabled by default. This may or may not cause problems with saving the file and the workarounds for it are currently outside the scope of this guide.
