How to bypass the movie when entering the game

[leather]

When i create a new character in wow and enter the game,a movie section would be shown,
how could i bypass the movie without pressing ESC key?
i mean is there any method like lua function or memory writing ?

Why on earth? there should be console vars related to this. Check for info on config.WTF

[tanis2000]

movie and expansionMovie in config.wtf are your best bet. Try setting them both to 0.
For reference: Console variables - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft

If you want to do it at run-time then you could try the CVars above but use memory-writing to modify them.

These "movies" have nothing to do with the CVars.

They are read from CinematicSequences.dbc - WoW.Dev Wiki while the IDs for that one are sent from the server on entering the world.

You may just delete the entries to stop it playing them or null out the packet handler playing cutscenes.

Ah of course, the movie CVars must be for the ones you get upon starting the game for the first time.

Been so long since I've actually reinstalled WoW or created a new character and actually paid attention to the process. Lol.

if InCinematic() then
StopCinematic()

I like this solution. Wait until InCinematic() is true or just loop this until StopCinematic() is called.
