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?

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.
