Skip Intro

Skip Intro lets you instantly skip the intro logos and screen transition (and optionally skip straight to the load or co-op screen). Combine with Fast Animations to get into the game even faster.

For non-English players, translations are included in the base mod. Contributions are welcome!

 

- Install the latest version of SMAPI.

- Unzip the mod folder into Stardew Valley/Mods.

- Run the game using SMAPI.

 

- Compatible with...

- Stardew Valley 1.5.5 or later;

- Linux, macOS, and Windows;

- single-player and multiplayer (even if other players don't have it).

- No known mod conflicts.

The mod will automatically skip to the title screen. You can optionally edit the mod settings to skip to the load or co-op screen instead.

The mod gets you to the load screen much faster than any vanilla method:

- Double-click the first logo: 13 seconds.

- Press ESC at the first logo: 5 seconds.

- Skip Intro: 2 seconds.

ABOUT THIS LISTING

This page describes Skip Intro by pathoschild. The description and screenshots are the author's own, imported from their listing on CurseForge on 25 October 2026: https://www.curseforge.com/stardewvalley/mods/skip-intro

Mythiq.net hosts no files for it. The download button goes straight to the release file on edge.forgecdn.net, so you are downloading from the author's own host, not from a copy of ours.

The download count, rating and comments on this page start at zero and count Mythiq.net only. The source's own figures are not copied here — they measure a different site, and a number that cannot be checked against our own ledger is not worth printing.

SMAPI

This is a SMAPI mod, not a loose content file. SMAPI — the Stardew Modding API, from smapi.io — must be installed first, and the game started through it. Without it the folder sits in Mods and nothing loads.

GAME VERSION

Built against Stardew Valley 1.6.15. SMAPI mods usually survive minor game patches, but a mod built for 1.6 will not load on 1.5.

DEPENDENCIES

Many mods require a framework mod as well — Content Patcher above all, sometimes SpaceCore or Json Assets. SMAPI prints the exact missing name at launch; a red error naming a dependency is the usual reason a freshly installed mod does nothing.

1. Download the archive with the button on this page and unzip it.

2. Move the mod's folder into your Mods directory:

Windows — %AppData%\StardewValley\Mods

macOS — ~/Library/Application Support/StardewValley/Contents/MacOS/Mods

Linux — ~/.config/StardewValley/Mods

3. Start the game through SMAPI, not the normal launcher. SMAPI lists every mod it loaded at startup — check yours is there and did not print an error.

UPDATING

Delete the old folder before unzipping the new one. Two copies of a mod is the classic cause of duplicate items and crashes, and unzipping over the top keeps stale files the new version no longer expects.
