scnoload

(pronounced "see no load")
Suppresses the loading screen you get while you respawn in scenarios.

About

When I'm respawing in a scenario I don't want to see the same information I got while joining, displayed to me over and over again. I want to get back into action asap. So I wrote this little addon to skip the loading screen.

It wont skip neighter the initial loading screen nor the leaving screen/summary.
You can now choose to skip all loading screens (when you respawn in the same zone) or only those in scenarios.

Last changes

re-enabled the close button in the scenario summary window
changed the way the loading screen is hidden
new slash command: /snl oldway

Slash commands

Requires LibSlash.

/snl mode (all/sc) - choose which loading screens to skip (default: sc).
/snl oldway - toggle the method of hiding the loading screen (default: false).

Performance

Back when I still had my old Athlon 64 w/ 2gb RAM, the loading screen (while respawning) would take forever to go away. It annoyed the hell out of me. But since I had no chance to test the addon with an old system, I don't know if it improves the performance in any way. Please let me know.

With my new system, a Phenom II X3 w/ 6gb RAM, the loading screen finishes so fast I can't even have a look at the map. So again, it's useless to me and can be skipped :)
