I've been looking for a way to disable the f....ing intro speech for so long.., Thank you so much!

What a relief. This mod was hard to find though. It should have "shut up" in the title.

Thank. You.

This should be called "The STFU Mod".

Renamed mod to ARS - Improved Loadscreen

Now in addition to silencing the intro speeches, the mod adds information on any unique units and buildings to the Loadscreen.

You could just set Speech Volume to 0. Though that mutes everyone, which is what I prefer.

Hahaha! This is wonderful. I am not against Sean Bean, I too will admit hearing the same speech especially the first part over and over gets annoying. I swear, your mods shouldnt be mods, they should be base game options! Keep up the great work! :)

Fine, all is quiet now.
Not sure if it is because of your changes of because I re-started the game instead of just turn on the mod from the main menu.
Thank you very much-
I wish that guy (of course it's not Sean Bean in German) would also shut up when some new techs and such are discovered, because (at least in German) the sayings are so bad that they are annoying.

Titule - I tried switching my language to German it it worked for me. I don't see anything in the code that should make language an issue. While checking this, I realized that my base file was out of date. I reapplied my changes to the newest version. I also added a LoadOrder to help insure that my mod isn't being overwritten by the base files. Let me know if you are still having problems getting it to work.

Does it only work for English? Or not at all?
It doesn't make the German narrator shut up...

I think a huge part of the problem with the bean intros is that instead of A summary of the civ and a summary of the leader, they're all a summary of the era which is always the same for everyone in every era, and a summary of the civ's mechanics as they existed at the time of the VA recording, thinly veiled as some paean to the leader and civ. Many of which are no longer accurate anyway. It's kinda... bad. It's not got nearly the power or interest of civ 5's approach.

Yeah.. As much I also love Sean Bean, I actually miss the guy's voice from civ 5

Oh nice, thanks!

@ZeUberChef I think the ConciseUI mod already has that as a feature

May I request also making him be silent when new techs/civis are researched, and when wonders are built/found?


Don't get me wrong, I love Sean. But after hundreds of hours in this game I'm sick and tired of hearing "Monay" Or even the long quotes for wonders and such.
