Bug Splash screen doesn't load but game works

    Working on my new game testing builds.

    The splash screen only shows the background color but not my logo or the unity logo.
    It's a good 5s delay. It started intermittently and has been getting progressively worse as I developed the game.

    I tried different things like delaying the start of methods. I moved a huge object loading manage to another scene.
    In the editor the game menu pops up in less than 2s.
    Usually it comes on the 1st time I run the new build but after the 1st time it never comes up now.
    I did a clean build deleting the previous one.
    Reimported all assets.

    I'm stumped.

    That splash screen is weird: it lives in the startup twilight. On some platforms you won't even see it. On other platforms it's animated. On others it lingers into the start of your game, sometimes as much as a second or two while your game is busily running ahead.

    I always have a
    zeroscene
    with a fill-with-black Camera and a script to go to the first real scene of my game and leave it.

    I am explicitly NOT interested in fooling around at the startup / shutdown / rotate / resize margins of my game. I just don't care. :) Besides, nobody ever makes money or experienced any actual joy at those points in ANY game!

    I shouldn't have to make a zero scene to make it work. It works on my other 2 titles, just not the new one.

    Your assertion has been noted.

    Made a zeroscene. Put the delay exactly as the 4s popup.... Well it does the popup, but then it waits 8 more seconds to load the main scene. WTF? It should be the exact same time the popup ends it loads the other scene.

    So I put a zero timer delay and it still took 5s.

    Is it loading pictures in the background?

    Still can't figure out the solution to this.

    I noticed the 1st time I build the game it runs the logo screen, then pauses for 3s then loads the game.
    Any execution after there the game takes 6s to load with no logo screen or information.

    No other game of mine does this. Just the new one.
