Skipping video intros

These are workarounds in case skipping video intros does not work. Pulled from various sources.

The cause is likely client behavior and is unlikely to see a fix as "bug".

Disable waiting
This method skips the intros fast and should work even with mods. It is less likely with the other methods provided.

Go to: \Conan Exiles\ConanSandbox\Config\ open "DefaultGame.ini and set: Change bWaitForMoviesToComplete=True to bWaitForMoviesToComplete=False

Left click

 * only after "Loading..." becomes "Loading continue".
 * however, if you are using mods, mods load before the game. This has the unforunate side effect of stopping you from skipping the intro.

Change your settings
Go to: \Conan Exiles\ConanSandbox\Config\ open "DefaultGame.ini and set: [/script/movieplayer.movieplayersettings] -StartupMovies=StartupUE4 -StartupMovies=StartupNvidia -StartupMovies=CinematicIntroV2

bWaitForMoviesToComplete=True bMoviesAreSkippable=True -StartupMovies= was left out in this example. This does not have any side-effects..
 * It seems + and - actually means something plays or not, but it could also be any other character.
 * Comparing with below example (or with the default game files)

Other methods
From [/script/movieplayer.movieplayersettings] bWaitForMoviesToComplete=True bMoviesAreSkippable=True -StartupMovies= +StartupMovies=StartupUE4 +StartupMovies=StartupNvidia +StartupMovies=CinematicIntroV2
 * Editing the file Conan Exiles\ConanSandbox\Config\DefaultGame.ini

To [/script/movieplayer.movieplayersettings] bWaitForMoviesToComplete=True bMoviesAreSkippable=True -StartupMovies= ; +StartupMovies=StartupUE4 ; +StartupMovies=StartupNvidia ; +StartupMovies=CinematicIntroV2


 * Selecting "Novids" from the start options in Steam.
 * Clicking the small microphone looking icon at bottom of screen.

The following is not recommended, it may have some side effects: Leave only the video " StoryIntro " in the folder otherwise you cant join on the server possible.
 * GO Steam\steamapps\common\Conan Exiles\ConanSandbox\Content\Movies and delete all MP4 Data.
