Title: running batch files through front end, sound ?
Post by: rlehm on August 03, 2007, 04:27:09 pm

When launching "Geometry Wars" through my front end (batch file) there is no sound. when running it without the front end, it has sound. what gives?

What does the batch file look like?  In the batch file, you need to CD to the directory that you are running the program from before executing the program so the program can find all of its needed components.  This MAY be the problem.

My guess is wrong parameters.

in maximus arcade, you simply point to the exe, and it makes the .bat(batch) file for you. There is an area that you can add commands for it while opening files, i think that's where i need to add something....

Right click on the icon you launch it with, and select properties. it should have the parameters there. Then you can plug those into your front end...
