disable startup movies

To avoid having to press the escape key 3 times on startup
in the exe folder, file name freelancer.ini
from this
[Startup
movie_file = movies\MGS_Logo_Final.wmv
movie_file = movies\DA_Logo_Final.wmv
movie_file = movies\FL_Intro.wmv
to this disables startup movies
[Startup
;movie_file = movies\MGS_Logo_Final.wmv
;movie_file = movies\DA_Logo_Final.wmv
;movie_file = movies\FL_Intro.wmv
If this was posted before I didnt see it just in case someone wants to get in the ring with me.

This isn't terribly off-topic, but you make the call:

You can do that for battlefield 1942 (whose movies you can't skip) by simply deleting them from the movies folder in the game directory.

Just in case someone cares.

The reason i say ; is in case you decide for some reason you want to turn them back on again.

Or you can just rename the movies folder, works for me.
