How to skip the intro screen [DLC Support]

Installation

Hi there! This guide will show you, how you can skip the long unnecessary intro in Just Cause 3.

I wrote a small program to automate the steps 2-4. You can read more about it on my GitHub[github.com]

Ofc, the manual way below still works.

1. Open your JC3 directory.

Right-click Just Cause 3.
Choose “Properties”.
Change to the “Local Files” tab.
Click “Browse Local Files…”.

2. Create a new folder called “dropzone”.

3. Create a new folder in “dropzone” called “videos”.

4. Create an empty file (e.g. a text file) and rename it to “corona_video.bikc” and put in the “videos” folder.*

5. Next you’re going to need to add a few commandline arguments to enable the dropzone directory:

If you don’t have any DLC’s installed, add this (without the quotes):
“–vfs-fs dropzone –vfs-archive patch_win64 –vfs-archive archives_win64 –vfs-fs .”

And if you do have any DLC’s installed, add this (without the quotes):
“–vfs-fs dropzone –vfs-archive patch_win64 –vfs-archive archives_win64 –vfs-archive dlc_win64 –vfs-fs .”

You can easily set this through Steam by right-clicking Just Cause 3,
Choose “Properties”.
Click “Set Launch Options…”.
Paste the arguments line into the text box, and click “OK”.

*Windows may hide known file extensions preventing you to create a bikc file. To show file extensions, open the File Explorer and press “ALT+V” and then HF.

And that’s it!
