Chance Launch path to 64 bit launcher #85

I know this project is no longer under development. But it still works perfectly for what I need.

However.. I recently stopped using the Steam client of POE, and swapped to the stand-alone. However.. I can only get it to launch pathofexile.exe.

Is there a way I can get it to launch toe 64bit client?

saw this in my mailbox, randomly, I guess it's a Christmas miracle!

Go to the "Settings window"

image There is a General Settings, then untick "Use Steam to launch PoE", this will unlock the drown down window and you should be able to select a different PoE here.

If no PoE is found there that is not steam, you can probably go to to the Folders tab and add it by pressing the + icon. image

If it doesn't show up instantly in settings try restarting PAL and it might show up.

If that doesn't work you could try editing the PALData.db file in (%localappdata%/PAL/Data) with an SQL Editor like: https://sqlitebrowser.org/

And inserting your installation folder, with an SQL statement like: INSERT INTO PoE_Locations VALUES("C:\My\Location\To\Path of Exile\PathOfExile_x64.exe", 1);

I should probably get started on a PAL3 some-day as it's pretty embarrassing to see this application being this out dated.

Thank you so much for responding! :)

The problem was that I could only point to the folder. However... Just added \pathofexile_64.exe to the command line and it works! :)

As far as PAL3. I fully agree! :) I LOVE 1 button to launch all the goodies I use.

Again, thank you so much for the reply!
