Proper Args for game launch shortcuts?

Post by Scary_Penguin » Thu Jul 14, 2005 9:27 pm

I am trying to setup the updater from wowrankings.com, and cant seem to get it to launch my WoW profile from wineq2. Not sure if anyone has ever used the program before, but it has a selection where you can set it to launch wow.exe, cosmos.exe, or *other* and specify the location and append arguments if needed. In looking at my normal shortcut for wow, it shows "C:\Program Files\WinEQ2\WinEQ2.exe" /plugin:WinEQ2-WoW.dll "Demo"

I tried to put the plugin line into the arguments section, but dont know the mechanics as to the way its interpreted by wowrankings updater.

Their setting file looks like this:

Code: Select all

<wowrankings id>
<wowrankings pw>
<#> Not sure what this number is for, on my PC it is 3? Assuming it means the 3rd radio button, which says "other" in the settings screen for another application.
C&#58;\Program Files\WinEQ2\WinEQ2.exe
WinEQ2.exe
<arguments>
Has anyone used this in conjunction with wineq2? Thanks!

To my knowledge, you can just run the updater program and separately run WoW, cosmos, etc however you like (I could be wrong)

Yeah, seeing that now. Was hoping I could get everything to cascade off of one another with a single shortcut but its no different really than me running my magelo updater for EQ. Thanks Lax :)
