Setup to use Multiple Launchers? #6

Open dt126 opened 3 years ago

dt126 commented 3 years ago

This really isn't a bug but, is there any way to configure this to allow different launchers, such as GOG and Steam? It works well for me using either GOG or Steam (HDR ON, change screen resolution, Launch Steam or GOG, then undo on exit). Ideally, I would like to have separate icons in Moonstream to launch STEAM Big Picture and GOG rather than having to change the INI file back and forth depending on the launcher I want to use.

If I create (2) directories with the modified Andromeda, Geforce Experience will add two separate links (to each directory). I tried doing this with different INI files in each directory but it seems that ones of the two INI files is run each time.

Is this something that should work (and I'm missing something) or not possible? Thanks.

You can add multiple Gamestream Launchpad .bats as new entries manually, but they won't support HDR. I guess you could try duplicating the moonlight_hdr_launcher directory and adding the different MassEffectAndromeda.exe launchers manually. This isn't that is supported though and I haven't tried it.

Thanks. I did try to duplicate the directories. Let’s call them 1 and 2. Regardless of what .BAT file I place in Directory 2, the one from directory 1 always runs. I was thinking that it might be the Registry entry pointing it back to Directory #1.

For the time being, I will just swap BAT files for now. Your program is working so well though, that I was hoping you’d support it. The use case for this really comes down to support for gamepads, the DS4 (and now DS5) in my case. Getting different games to recognize a Playstation controller as a Playstation controller can be quite challenging and varies considerably from game to game. It ends up being a combination of Steam + Steaminput for some games and Non-Steam Launcher + 3rd Party Program (such as DS4Windows) for other games.

The easiest way to support this would be to write a program that moonlight_hdr_launcher would launch and that would allow a game controller to switch between different game library management programs. Basically a launcher for launchers. PlayNite already does one better though as it just provides access to all the games you have installed from all of your launchers. https://playnite.link/ It isn't perfect, for example if a game is being updated in steam you won't know until you try to run it, but I think it covers off all the usecases pretty closely.
