Closed shananas closed 2 months ago

shananas commented 2 months ago

Allow mod manager to launch each of the 5 supported games directly when using steam. If the game is installed on steam and you make a text file in the game install folder named steam_appid.txt with the contents being the appid of the launcher you can launch the games exes directly.

contents of the 1.5 2.5 .txt

contents of the 2.8 .txt

for any curious reader this does also work for 0.2 but it needs to be next to the 0.2 exe which is in a folder further down the heiarchy for my personal install its inh D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\KINGDOM HEARTS HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue\KINGDOM HEARTS 0.2 Birth by Sleep\Binaries\Win64 uses the same appid as the 2.8 one for DDD its just the 0.2's exe is in a different location
