Splinter Cell Double Agent
 
is there a way to circumvent the annoyingly long and unskippable intros?? IE no intro fixes?

Are the movies in separate files or embedded into a "bigfile"? If in separate files, what file format/extension?

they're all .bik

in
\Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Double Agent\SCDA-Offline\System\Videos

folder

I wrote a small program call "cutbink" which keeps only the first N frames of a .BIK video file. Completely empty videos (0 frames) usually work but, if the game crashes because of that, you can also create one-frame videos instead. That gives you like a few ten kilobytes per video file instead of several (ten) Megabytes. (I use this program in my so-called "modular rips": mostly no videos - especially not intros! - are kept in the main module, if the game is well playable without them; instead, they are inside other, optionally installable, modules.)

Unfortunately, my website is currently down. I you send me a PM with your E-mail address, I'll try to send "cutbink" to you in an E-mail attachment from my work place address.

i have yet to receive an email

I did send one to you and no error message was returned. Perhaps, we should wait until my personal E-mail address starts working again...? But let's not bore people with this; use PM instead!
