Curse

I like tweaking my games to perfection, so I want to start a thread that lists the different command lines you can add to your shortcut target. Here's a couple I found:

-perf will display fps in top right corner

-email "email address" -password "password" will auto log you in (credit to wolfpackee)

any additions are welcome

-update
-uninstall
-noui
-nosound
-noshaders
-repair
-port
-map
-fps

These are all that I am aware of as well, but I suspect there are more. If you can get a decent list going, consider posting it in the community projects section.

There are many more than this. Using GNU strings for Win32, you can figure out where the data segment for such strings is located:

Code:

D:\>strings -t x -e l -a gw.exe | grep -i "perf"
 2e0ef0 perf
 2e4d20 Perf

D:\>strings -t x -e l -a gw.exe | grep -i "email"
 2e0f20 email
{snipped}

In this case, looking around gw.exe at file offset 0x2e0ef0 was useful. Here's a list of all the command-line arguments supported by gw.exe. What they do is anyone's guess. I also have no idea what the applicable arguments are to each of these arguments (i.e. "-email foobar")

Code:

-update
-uninstall
-noui
-nosound
-noshaders
-repair
-port
-perf
-password
-map
-fps
-email

If one can figure out what all of these do, it'd be worth posting/mentioning them here.

Thanks for the adds. If its better, can an admin move this to projects?

I know that -password works properly. when you click the "remember me" box and use this switch it will auto log you in.

However I have not gotten the -email switch to work so I can switch users on the fly. Anyone played with this?

-noshaders seems to just disable the "Post process effects" which you can toggle under options->advanced from within the game. Can anybody confirm this?

I have a guide started in community works (info pulled from the community) but always looking for new switches or the effects of them.
