The shortcut does not start the application #30

The shortcut created by wine-launcher launches wine-launcher itself, not the installed application. "./start --game game1" also launches wine-launcher

It should be so. The task of the WL is to calculate the time spent in the game.

begeeem0t commented 3 years ago

Is there a way to start the game immediately? If I'm not interested in counting the time spent in the game.

hitman249 commented 3 years ago

No, WL's task is not only about time tracking. But also in the initial preparation of the game for launch. For example, if a game or wine is packaged in squashfs images, they must first be mounted. Or, WL restores the screen resolution after finishing the game.

But you don't have to show the GUI to do that. PlayOnLinux, for example, creates a shortcut that launches the application without showing the GUI of the PoL itself and requiring no extra action from the user.

Hid the window of the launcher, check in the latest version

The WL GUI is still running. "./start --game2 --hide" also starts the WL GUI (

Your command is incorrect.
Correct command: ./start --game game5 --autostart standard --hide
Create a shortcut through a graphical interface

Thank you! Saw the new options in the GUI. But wine-launcher GUI still appears for a moment, before the start of the game ) In the tiling window manager, it's pretty noticeable (

Fixed, update to the latest version
