Any way to skip 3dmark test

[goober]

Please tell me how its so annoying I have to wait 8 months for it to finish. It literally turns the game into a waiting simulator and not a pc building siimulator. Its almost as boring as sitting in church

Nope, you can't skip that.

I know (but I don't use mods, so don't ask me how / where, specially since mods are not supported by the devs for this game) that there is a mod that allows you to reduce the time of the test.

Now honnestly, unless you are really really early game, I have no idea of why you have to wait for benchmark.
You have 3 benches, and yet, you can work only on one PC at a time, so you have 2 workbenches available to run benchmarks that takes 1 minute 30 (and not just a month short of full pregnancy... sorry had to... your 8 month coming out of nowhere, but so close to that, lol)

So yeah sometimes I have to wait what... 30 seconds ? maybe 30 seconds to do something else in game maybe ? like planning and ordering your 3-4 next jobs ? consulting PCBay ? repairing and benchmarking (lol again... ) a used PC that you'll sell at PCBay ?

There's often a lot to do in those 30 seconds, like working on a second or even third bench.

You should be happy, actually. It's only 2.5 minutes in-game. Originally it used to be 5 minutes in PCBS, the developers halved it during early access. And in real life, it's 20 minutes per run! Try running the actual 3dmark in real life before you complain about PCBS.

I use the mod that reduces it to 9 seconds. Makes things much better in my experience, and it still works despite the page saying it's outdated.

Yes, do you run 3dmark every day 2-5 times per session? 2.5 minutes turns into 10 minutes of very fun gameplay, glhf comrade

It's actually WAY less.

Like less than 5 minutes for Time Spy (when you use free version, you have the long demo before the actual benchs).

This mod takes the 30-second wait down to your choice of either 3 seconds or 0 seconds.

I used to use that mod. Unfortunately I haven't found a way to make it work outside of the default workshop, and I just can't go back from the Overclockers shop.
