Once again I go back to the Exiled Lands (Savage Wilds this time, actually), and once again I can't help editing ".../Conan Exiles/ConanSandbox/Config/DefaultGame.ini" to strip away the opening credits that I can't really skip otherwise or automatically. Not everyone is bothered by it and the wait time is the same, but I'm happier this way.

Do you have some quirk like that in your gaming life? Something that takes at least a bit of effort or research to make your setup just nice? Give me all your most silly and trivial examples. All praise mods that automate doors.

I did in the past: Replace .bik intro video file with an "empty" one to skip intros
I know of, haven't used: Change game window to be borderless with Borderless Gaming
IIRC I've used Cheat Engine, before it was littered with shit, to speed up an awfully slow singleplayer game
In Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory (W:ET) I had a whole setup of config scripts for key bindings
For W:ET server hosting I put configuration into a deliberate, structured set of files (it's not necessarily obvious between splitting base game and alternateable mod configuration)
