September 2, 200719 yr Is there a way to skip the briefings in Reloaded? I don't want to listen to them every time before I play.
September 2, 200719 yr With the original you could just hit "escape" and it would skip the briefing. It doesn't work that way with Reloaded? 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away

September 3, 200719 yr I also couldn´t skip the briefing. You gotta have to sit there and take it. And there´s no way that these guys will stop talking. Screaming "I just know it all" also won´t help. I guess that´s a kind of cruelty mask gave us there. Who cares at all?!
September 5, 200719 yr I generally just click the mouse's left button and that skips it. Try the true tried and tested button mash Start with escape, try space bar, enter, mouse keys ... ah ... other keys? I've had it one before where I could skip the movies - but that was because the game sort of alt tabbed to the desktop and I wasn't focused on the game. Alt tabbing might help, but probably wont. http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif
September 26, 200719 yr I'd like to point out you can't skip it if you installed Reloaded using Rebellion Refreshed and Reloaded. Regular Reloaded skips just fine though.
September 27, 200719 yr I'd like to point out you can't skip it if you installed Reloaded using Rebellion Refreshed and Reloaded. Regular Reloaded skips just fine though. Odd... I'll take a look into it when I have time. "In the future it will become easier for old negatives to become lost and be 'replaced' by new altered negatives. This would be a great loss to our society. Our cultural history must not be allowed to be rewritten." - George Lucas, 1988. [u.S.

September 29, 200719 yr Then again, it might be that I had to replace d3drm.dll, since I WAS using Vista the time.
November 30, 200718 yr xp here - reloaded and refreshed - third round of installing and stuck with briefings...
November 30, 200718 yr Like I wrote before, RR isn't causing it, must be something with XP's drivers. However, all the Function buttons are working (f1,f2..) while briefing, so you aren't totally paralyzed, you can check some information before the first day starts. This is a bug is to be found in the original game, has nothing to do with RR either.
November 30, 200718 yr one problem with that - when i delete the lot (reloaded and refreshed) and remove the merge's from the registry then reinstall a plain unmodded (vanilla) copy of SWRebellionthen i CAN skip the briefings every time so i can honestly report that, on this sytem at least, it is not a bug with XP drivers, it is something to do with the executables NOW THENwhen i remove the Refreshed EXE and replace it with the Original REBEXE.exe then the refreshed_copy of rebellion skips the briefings when i remove the Reloaded EXE and replace it with the Original REBEXE.exe then the reloaded_copy of rebellion skips the briefings If I simply rename Either the Reloaded or Refreshed EXE's to rebexe.exe then I cannot skip the briefings. sadly this indicates it IS something to do with the copies of the EXE's that I have here, were multiple versions released perhaps??
June 28, 200818 yr You could simply delete/rename EMBRIEF.dll and ALBRIEF.DLL, that should speed you past the briefings.
April 15, 200917 yr You could simply delete/rename EMBRIEF.dll and ALBRIEF.DLL, that should speed you past the briefings. I tried it today and that WORKS It simply does the trick: two seconds after initial of Command room all briefings are gone without any escape key. PS: you do not need to delete it just, rename them to --EMBRIEF.dll and --ALBRIEF.DLL or something.
