[CRITICAL FEATURE REQUEST] Disable game boot animation #22

Closed Brickorblock closed 1 year ago

Brickorblock commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Current behaviour: when launching any app from cross launcher, an "Android" boot animation will play.

Describe the solution you'd like Add a toggle in the system settings to disable game boot animations. I consider this a critical feature request because the animations make the launching/loading of apps slower for no good reason, which is especially annoying when switching between apps frequently. Also the stock animation doesn't look that good (Imo)

Describe alternatives you've considered Attempted to customise the gameboot animation following the documentation here: https://github.com/EmiyaSyahriel/CrossLauncher/blob/master/CUSTOM.MD

Outcomes:

Additional context The animation i'm referring to: screenshot

I've added back the option to skip gameboot and launch apps directly in release Alpha 20221205_A0139 (the implementation is already there since beginning, just need to add back the option in setting), can be changed via Settings > System Settings > Enable Gameboot. This release should also fix the customization file loading regarding Cold boot and Game boot. In case it solves this issue for you, you may close it or I will close it myself if you don't respond before year end.

By the way, the gameboot & coldboot were in form of .png image being faded and scaled by code with .mp3 file played as it's BGM. There is no .mp4 support planned as they were too hard to implement while keeping things lightweight.
