Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the startup timer?
There's nothing to enable — the timer appears automatically in the corner of the loading screen as soon as the game begins starting. If you don't see it, check that the mod is actually loaded for your game instance.
Where does the timer show up while the game is loading?
It displays as a small overlay on the loading screen, showing elapsed time counting up while the game boots. It disappears once you reach the main menu, where the total is shown instead.
How do I see my total load time?
The total load time is displayed on the main menu after startup finishes. Look for the timer text on the menu screen — it shows how long the whole startup took.
Why does the game go fullscreen before the main menu?
That's the behavior this mod prevents — it holds off fullscreen until the main menu is actually displayed. If you're still seeing early fullscreen, another mod or your launcher may be forcing it.
