Skip Opening Screen

Returning player on new comp and total reload. I even had to put in a ticket to reactivate my account! I remember having a plugin that skipped the opening screen, same as when I get lucky with hitting Esc. Can't find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated as the enforced waiting is just annoying. Thanks.

Add this argument to your shortcut:
-nosplash

Some people report that this argument speeds up loading too, but I have not traced exactly what it does and it might interfere with automatic patching:
-skiprawdownload
Pretty sure it just prevents the download of the splash screens, though.

Great ! Thank you for sharing this information

Why did I learned about it only today ?!

I tried to add simultaneously these 2 arguments in the launcher shortcut properties "...\The Lord of the Rings Online\LotroLauncher.exe" -nosplash -skiprawdownload

It do not downloads anymore the advertisements in French + English + German each time I run the launcher, however I still have the splash screen (and have to press escape).

Am I doing something wrong ?

It's possible that -nosplash was disabled. SSG has made quite a number of changes to the LOTRO Launcher application (and the client apps) over the last year. It worked the last time I tried it, but when I tested it just now after reading your reply, that argument did not disable the display of the two splash screens (the logo animation followed by the advertising still).

It hasn't ever skipped those that I've seen. The splash screen it skips is the one that displays when you open the launcher, just before the launcher shows.

So, do someone know a way to skip the SSG logo animation and the "press escape" screen ?
