changing the launch icon (and command prompt)
« on: July 12, 2006, 09:36:13 pm »
decided to make a new thread on this to be more specific

is there anyways to change the icon of your mod's launcher, if so , how?
and how do you get rid of the command prompt when you acces your installer?

I am assuming you made a .bat file that has this contents?:
Code: [Select]
soldat.exe -mod MODNAME

exit

Just add the exit to the last line of the file and it will close.

If you want an icon right-click the .bat file go to create shortcut and make a shortcut.

Then right-click on the shortcut and go to properties and select a new icon.
There are other worlds than these

Use an icon without a black background.
