Short Cut or CD for game?

Post by lzrstrm »

Would it be possible for me to make a short cut on my desktop or a CD of my game so I could just put the disk in or click the short cut and my game would load?

desktop shortcuts are easy, just right-click either "click_me_to_start.bat" or the launcher, select create shortcut, and then copy that shortcut to your desktop. That's if you're using Windows.

As for a CD (also Windows), you could create autorun settings for that disk, I think... Read this: http://www.phdcc.com/shellrun/autorun.htm

If you're not using Windows (can't remember if it was you or someone else who had switched to a Linux OS), then I couldn't help you.

why didn't you say so before?

just edit the .bat to load the first map of your game, then convert it to an .exe. Read more here: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3614&p=31431
