Noob question 2

HughGRection · February 5th, 2008, 10:47 PM

Hi Guys,

I want to use Legacy to run Laz Rojas' WolfenDoom levels from a shortcut using the -file parameter to specify the pwad and deh. Game runs fine, but with software rendering. How do I get it to render in opengl without resorting to using the launcher?

Thanks in advance for your reply and for not making fun of me

Methinks that can be tweaked via config.cfg.

Add an -opengl switch.

Right click on your desktop, select New>Shortcut.
When a dialog pops up, select your Legacy.exe location:

Code:

C:/doomports/legacy/legacy.exe

Once the path and exe is there, add -opengl and -file if wanted:

Code:

C:/doomports/legacy/legacy.exe -opengl -file somewad.wad

Ok it, and you have yourself a quick little custom shortcut.

Right click the shortcut and goto properties if you want to modify it some more.
