submitted by lifebane on Dec 3rd, 2008 - Root: All - 0 comments

Kuntz from Over on Drifting Castle Server tossed together a nice little script to disable the logo and load animations from Warhammer Online.   Many people have already used it and Kuntz is a legitimate person, no funky spyware or anything like that.  Tried it out myself and it worked fine.   Read below to see what he posted on the matter and the link to his file to work this magic.  Posted here with permission from Kuntz of course.
