Battlefield 2: skipping the intro

Battlefield 2 starts with several intros. First, it shows you the EA logo, then the DICE logo, and then finally the cool battle scene. It's fun to watch the first time, but after a few times, it's a bore and really teases your patient.

All of the intro movie files (.bik extension) are located in "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\Movies". Each intro has its own individual file. Content of the "Movies" directory:

Dice.bik
EA.bik
Intro.bik
Legal.bik
menu.bik
menu_loggedin.bik
welcome.bik

To disable any of the intros, simply move the individual file into another directory. You can re-enable any intro by moving them back. I simply created a directory called "orginal" and dumped the intros in there.

I choose to do away with "Dice.bik", "EA.bik", "Intro.bik", and "Legal.bik".

My friend showed me an easier way. You can add "+restart" to the start-up command-line and skip the intro. That's adding it to the "Target:" field of the "Play Battlefield 2" short cut (see screen shot below).

Title: Special Forces - Skipping the Intro
Weblog: GearHack
Excerpt: My brother gotten me the Battlefield 2 Expension Pack: Special Forces. After installing the expansion, I found out that it installed it's own set of intro movies. I've already disabled all of the intros in the original Battlefield 2. Now I gotta do it again for Special Forces. Well, it wasn't tha . . .
