For that, put all the shortcut file of your PC games into the same directory and create a files launcher that will manage/start .lnk files. http://www.gwenael.org/xbmc/index.php?ti..._shortcuts and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyfRa7gygEc

As indicated into the user guide, %rom% is returning the complete path of the rom file (path+name+extension) while %romname% is just returning the name of the file without extension. Also your script use the parameter $CmdLine[2], so this mean that your autoscript is waiting at least 2 arguments. And as you write before it seems that you only paste one through Advanced Launcher.
Yeah I changed it to $CmdLine[1] and %romname%. But now windows indicates that it couldn't find the .ink

First, according to your launcher setup, you are not starting your autoit script but explorer.exe :
Code:...
<application>C:\Windows\explorer.exe</application>
...
Second, if you want to use .lnk files but not let Advanced Launcher start them natively you need to go into you ("C" key) > Edit Launcher > Advanced Modifications > Shortcuts (.lnk) support > and set this option to OFF.

This works in the last version of advanced launcher... what can i do
(2013-06-21, 11:46)lokipoki Wrote: [ -> ]It still doesn't work. Here is my whole scenario again:
Folder structure:
Ink I read into advanced launcher:
D:\HTPC\Games\PC\
Ink which will be executed through launcher.exe
D:\HTPC\Games\PC\Ink\
Application: explorer.exe
Arguments:%romname%
So I'm using the .ink in D:\HTPC\Games\PC\ to execute the launcher.exe which has this code:
Code:Run(@ComSpec & ' /c "D:\HTPC\Games\PC\' & $CmdLine[1] & '.lnk"', @DesktopCommonDir, @SW_HIDE)
I get this error:
Windows cant find Alan Wake (in this case). Make sure you typed in the name correctly , and then try again.
Here the launcher:

I tried everything. Whats wrong?!
Cheers.
First, according to your launcher setup, you are not starting your autoit script but explorer.exe :
Code:...
<application>C:\Windows\explorer.exe</application>
...
Second, if you want to use .lnk files but not let Advanced Launcher start them natively you need to go into you ("C" key) > Edit Launcher > Advanced Modifications > Shortcuts (.lnk) support > and set this option to OFF.
Ok. I try that when I come home...
Run(@ComSpec & ' /c "D:\HTPC\Games\PC\' & $CmdLine[1] & '.lnk"', @DesktopCommonDir, @SW_HIDE)

I turn of the ink. but nothing happens. Also I dont use the launcher.exe as application because all of the .ink in D:\HTPC\Games\PC\ point to the launcher.exe. I hope you understand what you mean.
.ink+explorer.exe (XBMC)>launcher.exe>.ink (Games)
I think the problem is somewhere in my code:
Code:Run(@ComSpec & ' /c "D:\HTPC\Games\PC\' & $CmdLine[1] & '.lnk"', @DesktopCommonDir, @SW_HIDE)
I think it doesnt pass on the .ink extension to my launcher.exe. But I can only guess.
Cheers.
.ink+explorer.exe (XBMC)>launcher.exe>.ink (Games)
explorer.exe (XBMC)> .lnk > launcher.exe>.lnk (Games)
launcher.exe (XBMC)>.lnk (Games)
(2013-06-23, 11:38)Shadowrunner Wrote: [ -> ]Is there a way to disable this new categories thing?Just create and let all your launchers into the default category. Then, from your skin, instead of starting Advanced launcher like this :
I do not mean to rain down negative on the achievement, it's a feature a lot of people have asked for and deserves to be in the add-on. But I don't use multiple instances of Advanced Launcher, I dont intend to use categories and as such, all it seems to do is create an unnecessary step to getting to the emulators/games.
plugin://plugin.program.advanced.launcher
plugin://plugin.program.advanced.launcher/?default
(2013-06-23, 11:38)Shadowrunner Wrote: [ -> ]I also need to figure out how to disable the back-up option (ideally, if i click 'Games' on the dashboard, I want it to open Advanced Launcher straight to the emulator screen, with no choice to go 'back' a level, I'll have to look into it).Not possible. Just use the "home" button instead of the "back" button.
(2013-06-23, 11:38)Shadowrunner Wrote: [ -> ]Again, not that it is not worth having, or developing, it's just a feature I will not use, and instead has caused a slight hindrance to the overall flow of the add-on for my uses. Or is there an updated video guide on how the new feature works and even cooler if it would show a way to get around that extra step.Ok... so if you do not need to use Advanced Launcher version up to 2.0.0, then use version 1.13.1 and disable the repo. Other solution : if you use Advanced Launcher only for emulators, it will be maybe a better idea to use RCB instead.
