| Junior Member | Problems with shortcut targets /Doom3 editting I always love to join a forum and start by asking for help. So I will continue with that trend. I just built a new system and decided to go with Vista. A few things are frustrating but overall it seems decent, my new system is really fast and haven't ran into any major issues yet. However I am having issues with shortcuts that I really need to figure out. My quick launch shortcut for Doom 3 has this for a target: "E:\Games\Doom 3\Doom3.exe" That works fine to start Doom3, but I also want a shortcut to start a mod I am involved with, mainly for play testing purposes, and also to skip loading Doom3 to load the mod. With XP my target was changed to this: "E:\Games\Doom 3\Doom3.exe +set r_fullscreen 1 +set com_allowConsole 1 +set fs_game modname" ![]() That would allow me to run full screen, let the console drop down and load up the resources for the mod directly. The problem is when I add that info to the shorcut in Vista I get a pop-up telling me it is an invalid location and will only let me cancel/close the shortcut properties. ----------------- EDIT OK, sorry for the dumb Q, it was pointed out to me that "E:\Games\Doom 3\Doom3.exe +set r_fullscreen 1 +set com_allowConsole 1 +set fs_game modname" is wrong but: "E:\Games\Doom 3\Doom3.exe" +set r_fullscreen 1 +set com_allowConsole 1 +set fs_game modname is correct. I don't believe XP used quotes, so when I set up in Vista and saw the quotes I just assumed that everything went inside them. Is there a way to fix this?
