Keyboard shortcuts/Command line switches

Unread postby Toripony » Sun May 01, 2011 1:02 pm

Every now and again I find a golden nugget that someone dropped.... a new tip/shortcut/option/switch that would be very useful in my development work. I wish someone would put them ALLLLLL down in ONE document in ONE place so we could ALL share in your little secrets.

There is a *huge* list of commandline parameters, I'm not sure most of them even work as they're aimed at the game developers rather than end-user developers. I'll try and pick out the likely useful ones.

-DisableEAX
-DisableSignals
-DisableSound
-DontUseBlueprintCache - awesome :)
-EnableSoundDebugDialogs
-ForceSWMix ( that one should disable anything more than basic playback through your soundcard, if you're having problems )
-LogLocStrings
-LogMate
-NoPlayerTrain
-NoWagonBraking
-QuickStartSteam
-ResetAchievements
-ResetStats
-SetFOV
-SetLogFilters
-ShowControlStateDialog
-UseFastBlueprintCache
-ValidateNetwork
-ValidateSignals
-VerboseAudioDebug
ignoreTrackTypes
-lua-debug-messages
-nvperfhud

Thank you so much for sharing, Kali! I see some things that look very useful if they do what I think they will. Did you find these documented somewhere or how did you come about knowing these? I keep wondering if I missed a manual somewhere.

Not documented anywhere I know of. They're all in the game files, you just have to look fairly hard :) but that doesn't come with explanations of what they do, unfortunately.

I'm sorry, can you clarify for me... what do you mean "...in the game files..."?

Gamemanager.dll

There are about 50 total last time I did a count.. I usually check every new release to see if a new useful one slipped in. :)

How do you look inside the dll file?
