i believe its the loading screen you choose. Like if its a campaign one it will have press any key to continue. But I'm not 100% sure.

I think if you have over 150 characters in the loading screen text, it gets rid of it

(Not 100% sure, but I get the feeling someone has told me that)

I'm pretty sure you have it wrong. I think that if you have more then X number of characters, it adds the "Press any key to continue" to give people time to read the text. Getting rid of it if theres more text seems weird, as then some people might not be able to read it if the map loads quickly.

No its got nothing to do with the characters. Its the type of loading screen as Dargoth said.

As far as I know, Custom loading screen makes you Click to continue. You can just reskin a normal loading screen to get a custom one where you don't have to click to continue.

"Custom" includes campaign loading screens and such, not just imported ones.

Nope.

It has.

Not only.

Yeah. I don't know exactly how many characters, but it is because of this. (I think Campaign loading screens require you to press any key as well.)
If you want to have text, but no "press any key", just take a screenshot of the text, and import it as a custom loading screen :p

Have you acually tested that, Romek? I've put in a range between 0 and max and it did not effect it at all.

I tested it with campaign loading screen, single player.

DOTA loading screen has no text (I mean the text is from the image itself)...

Yeah, I tested it. I'm actually confused now. Because I remember testing it a while-back, and finding out that if I had no text, it didn't display that.

Maybe if its single player, it displays it no matter what, and if its multiplayer, it checks the amount of characters? (That would be logical...)
That also explains why no matter how we test it, it always appears :p

Thats nice. Thanks for telling us. We really care. :)

I know when i play single player, it always requires pressing a key before game starts... even Dota. So unless you have someone to try it with you, not going to have a chance to test it.

If all else fails, try forcing the UI key for the player :D
(I might be dreaming, so don't take me too seriously)

Map Init
Wait 5 seconds
Force player to press A

Never tried, doesn't know if it will crash the game :D

Ah, Thought it might make a differnce between single\muti-player. Still, its false when people say it allways does it on single player - you can reskin a not-custom one and include text as the picture if you wan't it to not appear but have a custom loadingscreen.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
