(TM2:V)CONTROLERS - Cannot skip multiplayer user track intro

[Eggtooth]

Hello, after recent update I am unable to skip multiplayer map intro (intros created for user maps). When intro fades to black I am unable to play.

Before that, I was able to skip the user map intro with pressing any key on keyboard, now I cannot which results in black screen when user made intro ends with fade out. Can you add that Multiplayer intro skip back please?

Go to any server and try to skip map intro. Pressing any key doesn't help. It happens on Valley for me.. Other trackmanias are probably affected too.

this is already known and also has been reported quite a few times, if you would look in the reports section of the forum

Thanks for quick answer, any ETA on quick fix on this? I really wanna hop back into multiplayer, but this bloody issue is holding me back

Please don't exxagerate and don't swear, even more not because of such a really minor issue.

There is no date known up to now.
There was a report that you can skip it by pressing DEL and ENTER at the same time, but it works not all the time.
Anyways everyone is affected, just be patient, and enjoy the intros, they are often worth it

for me backspace and enter or better said retire and respawn pressed at once skip the intro every time...

Dont use respawn and retire in rounds, it leads to a give up, then you cannot participate in that particular round.
Unfortunately in rounds you have to watch the intro until the timer counts down.
Luckily the intro allways stops when the timer starts, so you wont be to late at the start.
The downside is that you wont be able to chat before a round starts.

Xbx (NADEO) explains here the change in the intro:

However there's a indeed a difference with before (which was the very reason for the change!):
Before:
1. Intro plays
2. you pressed the key to skip intro,
3. the intro stopped, and the server was informed you were ready
4. you were on the start line waiting for the go
5. the server said "everyone's ready, start the race" and you started racing.
After:
The intro keeps playing during step 4.
