Command Line Start

ruggbutt · 01-13-2007, 10:53 PM

I'm using FS Autostart and I'm using the command line "C:\Program Files\TouchBuddy\TouchBuddy.exe" -m server -c" to autostart TB server before Lock On starts. I'm also starting Track IR this way. Anyhow, in this latest version that command line doesn't work for me. What am I doing wrong?

I don't use client-server, but the Toolkit will create Desktop Shortcuts for your profile. I have always tested the Local ones and they work. So, I just tried to create a Server one, and the shortcut does start TB, but then it just sits there. I don't know what TB is supposed to do in server mode.... Just sit there with the Let's Go window, and that's it?

Can you, or one of the testers test my Desktop Shortcuts for Client-Server and tell me if they work?

If it starts in server mode, it just sits there but the progress bar underneath the GUI says Starting Server.

WB, the auto start functions work great in client/ server, as a matter of fact, everything I have tried in the new TB and TK works great!!
Congrats to you and Z for a job very well done!

I`ll go check, but starting it in server mode doesnt do anything other than open a port and start listening for commands.

Great. Glad to hear the desktop shortcuts work for Client-Server.
