Overview

The Unity Splash Screen Remover is a Command-Line Interface (CLI) tool designed to remove the Unity splash screen logo from Unity-built games.

The tool is an implementation of the guide available at https://github.com/kiraio-moe/remove-unity-splash-screen. By utilizing this tool, you can easily remove Unity splash screen logo from your games and keep your own logo displayed.

Requirements

.NET 6.0 SDK or .NET 7.0 SDK

Usages

To use the tool, follow the steps below:

Download USSR from Releases page.
There's many ways to use USSR. Choose which one you feel most comfortable with.
- Drag and drop your game executable (*.exe|*.x86|*.dmg|index.html) to USSR.exe.
- Drag and drop globalgamemanagers or data.unity3d file (WebGL.data currently not supported) to USSR.exe.
- Execute USSR on CLI:
```
USSR.exe <path/to/(*.exe|*.x86|*.x86_64|*.dmg|index.html|globalgamemanagers|data.unity3d|WebGL.data)>
```
For Android platform, there's extra work for it. You doesn't need Decompile and Recompile process as done in the guide.
- Make sure you already have JDK & SDK installed. In another word, you can build your game in Unity Editor.
- Android Studio installed. Make sure to set the JDK and SDK path to the one you used for Unity Editor.
- Follow these steps:
  - Check Export Project in Build Settings when you want to build.
  - After it has been exported, remove the splash screen by drag & drop globalgamemanagers or data.unity3d file in <export_result>/unityLibrary/src/main/assets/bin/Data/ or from CLI:
```
USSR.exe <path/to/<export_result>/unityLibrary/src/main/assets/bin/Data/(globalgamemanagers|data.unity3d)>
```
  - Remove the backup file (*.bak) generated by USSR or move to somewhere else outside of <export_result>.
  - After successfully removing the splash screen, import the project to Android Studio.
  - Build the project.
  - If you want to upload your game to app store (e.g. Google Play Store), you can sign your game with keystore and build the project as app bundle (.aar). I won't cover those steps here because you can find them pretty much on the internet.
