Need help starting from a windows shortcut
I would like to be able to run Doom/Doom 2/Heretic/Hexen straight through the game extension I use on my home theater PC. I've been able to create a shortcut using the command line options displayed in Snowberry, but it doesn't detect the add-ons I've placed in the Auto folder under data\jheretic (such as the jhrp1_01.box folder). How can I get this shortcut to load the add-ons as well? Thanks for your help.

The easiest way to do this currently is to start the front end and activate the relevant add-ons, then right-click the Play button to Preview the command line - from here you can copy the relevant arguments into your batch/response file and/or shortcut.
We plan to address this in a future version of the engine with native support for .box add-ons.
