Curse

1)Right-click the Guild Wars icon.
2)Select 'Properties'.
3)Select the 'Shortcut' tab.
4)In the 'Target' field...

Example "C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe" -image

Does the above still work? had to reinstall GW on my new desktop (finally got it xD) and was wondering if the -image command still downloaded all areas of the game to save me time and hassle in game.

Yes, it still works just fine.

Oh btw, i don't have NF so i was wondering if it would download all of its content too (i.e all Campaigns + eotn) so when i get round to purchasing it i don't have to wait during downloads for new areas etc?

Also when i've downloaded everything should i remove the '-image' so it's just "C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe" ?

Cheers!

*fixed No space between the dash and image.

And yes, it will download everything.

I actually made two shortcuts. One for updating GW and one for playing. Makes it easier to be lazy. :P

I did a clean install of Guild Wars two days ago with the EotN disk and did -image right afterward. My DAT File is about 3.75GB.

The data file is very big. I'm not sure why you think you might have to delete it - it contains all the data necessary to play the game - deleting it would stop you from doing so - it would all have to be re-downloaded.
