FastStartup
Lethal Company mod to skip the animations / splashes that play
on game startup.
[!NOTE]
FastStartup does not increase the load times of your game, it only skips the initial startup animations / splash screens.
Animations Skipped
- Startup Splashes
- Unity watermark splash
- Zeekerss (game developers) splash
- Boot Animation
- Launch Mode - defaults to Online
- Menu Animation (lil squash thingy)
- LAN mode warning popup (that mentions VPN / firewall usage)
Configuration
Everything that FastStartup does is configurable within the BepInEx/config/dev.flero.lethal.FastStartup.cfg file.
The config file has comments that should explain what everything does. If you are confused, feel free to open an issue.
Note: You must have launched the game after installing the mod before the config file is generated.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
