Run(filename)

[narayanjr]

winactivate("Diablo II")

winmove("Diablo II","",0,0)

;Run("Diablo II.exe", "C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe")

WinWait("Diablo II")

I have tried using

winactivate("Diablo II")

winmove("Diablo II","",0,0)

and it worked one time but then hasn't worked since then

then i tried

Run("Diablo II.exe", "C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe")

and that doesn't work at all but i can get it to start notepad

any idea what I am doing wrong?

Thanks

The issue would appear to be your run line.

Notepad.exe resides in the "system32" folder of windows, this is listed in whats known as the "PATH Variables"

You can call a .exe file that in a directory declared in the parth variables, without its entire location.

In this case, diablo II.exe is not in the path.. try this instead:

Run("C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe", "C:\Program Files\Diablo II\")

It specifies the program to run with a full directory to its executeable, and declares the directory to start it in (so it can find supporting files etc) is the directory it is located in.

also, not sure if autoIT will see the window name for diablo 2 unless you are running it in window mode.

that did work but when i do it that way it uses the one without the command line parameters

Run("C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" -mpq cdkey4.mpq -skiptobnet -w -title "Diablo II", "C:\Program Files\Diablo II\")

i need somthing like that but it doesnt like the added ""

is there a way to make it run a shortcut that already has the command parameters

or can i make that line of code work with the right combination of "" or '' or something else

[narayanjr]

still cant get it to work with parameters any ideas?

Thanks

Run('"C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" -mpq cdkey4.mpq -skiptobnet -w -title "Diablo II"')
