q4max launch icon + connect to server

Post by **phoenix1986** » Thu Dec 29, 2005 4:54 am

I was wondering it it's possible to create a launch icon for quake that will launch the quake 4 max mod, AND connect me to my game server using the ip address.

If anyone could help with this I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by creating a launch icon, but you can connect to a particular server with q4max by adding this to the command line:

+set fs_game q4max +connect <ip address goes here>

Just run steamfish (quake 4\q4max\) and let it create the icons. Then add the +connect <ip adress:port number> part in the shortcut (properties

target). You'll see that +set fs_game is already there in the Q4MAX shortcut.
