    Hi everyone,

    Today I've compiled my Unity game using the Universal App compilation (8.1 for WP and W8) for the first time (Until now I was using regular Windows Phone 8.0 compilation).
    As a result, Unity created a new project for the Universal app. The project contains an Extended Splash Screen.

    Now, in my game I use Unity's default splash image and my first scene is my splash screen. It works cross-platform (for iOS, Android, Windows Phone 8.0, Windows 8.0). So when the user opens the app, he sees Unity's default splash, my splash (which is a scene) and then the main scene.

    I want to keep using my system for a "second splash screen" instead of the extended splash screen (which is not cross platform).

    How can easily disable the extended splash screen? (And keep working with the scene I created for splash screen)

    Thanks,
    Lidan

    Hi,

    you can doing by simply deleting the xaml code for the splashscreen in MainPage.xaml. You'll also need to remove all the associated code in MainPage.xaml.cs.

    Thanks for your reply.

    It means that I need to keep the generated solution under source control so that Unity won't re-write these files every time.
    Is there any other way than editing the generated code? (like a player configuration?)

    Thanks!

    No, the only thing we have is splash screen in player settings. You can set it to something that looks very much like your first scene, so that switch between extended splash and your splash is almost unnoticable. In any case you have to set that splash image, because it's shown by windows automatically on startup for some short time.
