Re: More Command Line options
 

I've never run SE4 from the command line, but I don't think you need any of the stuff before "Space Empires IV Gold".

Re: More Command Line options
 

David, the problem is you aren't putting the name of the mod in the Last set of quote marks.

Try this:

C:\Progra~1\SpaceE~1\Se4.exe "C:\Program Files\Space Empires IV Gold\Pirates&NomadsV3.1\Savegame\DDAM.gam" "mypass" "1" "Pirates&NomadsV3.1"

You might actually need to put quotes around the first part, "C:\Progra~1\SpaceE~1\Se4.exe", but actually the path isn't neccesary as Capn says. You could do the same thing with:

Se4.exe "Savegame\DDAM.gam" "mypass" "1" "Pirates&NomadsV3.1"

and just put the batch file in the Space Empires IV directory and a shortcut to your desktop or whereever you want to run it from. But your way with the path works too, it's jsut a little cluttered. The key you are missing is the mod path in the Last set of quotes.

Cool thanks. That worked. Now one more question if I use this method to process the turn is there any way to make it give me a warning if a player file is missing or the wrong turn? I tried it and it processed the turn with no warning even though one player file was missing.

Well now, it is supposed to display the dialogs if you don't add the -nd flag at the end. But like you I am not getting any dialogs whether or not I have the -nd flag set. Apparently that is broken. Maybe it's never worked. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif I'll report it as a bug.
