Is it just me who has got tired of waiting for that startup screen in GPL. It seems to me there's no activity going on waiting for the game to start. I don't like to wait (there is serious gamingtime to gain). Greetings Johan N [email hidden]

If you've a PCI modem installed, CORE.INI: under: [ Communications ] add disable_modem = 1 Remco [email hidden] (Johan N) wrote: >Is it just me who has got tired of waiting for that startup screen in >GPL.

It works! Though I don't have a pci modem. Thanks Remco. -- Greetings Johan N [email hidden]

Another way is to leave the modem on. If you went online once, GPL looks always for the modem during setup. Jens BTW AFAIK all modems (intern, extern, PCI, whatsoever) are affected.
