Post by liamdawe »

Any idea on how to get springlobby to launch spring with a command like optirun?

I tried that but then the spring commands don't seem to apply to it. I tested using single player selected mod and map and then spring loaded up but to the main menu.

you have to pass on commands line args given to your script by SL.
it is something like $*

Please post your wrapper script. It should look similar to this:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
optirun /usr/bin/spring $@
