You don't need a run command for that, it is built into the game. Just change the resolution to 'Windowed'. Unless of course there is some reason the game won't run period in full screen, then I can't help you sorry.

It crashes after some time in full screen. It works in windowed but the update set it back to full screen and now if i press alt-enter or try to click window mode it dies.

I had all of he settings set to lowest, I tried 2 drivers.

The graphics card works fine.


I just need it in a window. The BWE is in like 28 hours or so. I can try to fix it later, but for now i need a work around.

This works for some games...

1)Make a SHORTCUT to your desktop
2)Right click to to "properties"
3)In the target section add a -w after the target

Example: C:\Mythic\Atlantis\camelot.exe -w

Make sure there is a space is that doesnt work add quotes around the target

Example: "C:\Mythic\Atlantis\camelot.exe" -w

And if that doesnt work... that nifty trick wont work at all so just delete the Shortcut or change it back to its origanal (C:\Mythic\Atlantis\camelot.exe)

Hope it works,
-Thumpy


C:\Mythic\Atlantis\camelot.exe is just a example dont change the target that the Shortcut for the game came with.
