[TUTORIAL]AssaultCube through Steam [WINDOWS]
#7
Not saying I don't trust you but how do we know this is not a hacked executable.

And why do you have to convert the .bat to a .exe, is there anyway to change the switches?

Easier way to do this and also have switches use the below,

Add ac_client.exe to steam this is found in the bin_win32 folder under assaultcube.

Once this has been added you can right click and rename the ac_client to what ever you want it to be, eg. "KillTheNoobs_Cube" or for traditional reasons rename it to "AssaultCube" without the quotes of course.

The go to properties, from within the target field add the following line into the target field after the quotation marks.

--home="?MYDOCUMENTS?\AssaultCube_v1.1" --init=config/init.cfg

Of course this might be different for different people you can check your assaultcube.bat file to see what you have

In the target field I have

"C:\Programs\AssaultCube\bin_win32\ac_client.exe" --home="?MYDOCUMENTS?\AssaultCube_v1.1" --init=config/init.cfg

For all the default users I had to remove
--init %1 %2 %3 %4 %5
And place this in an external file

So I created a file in config called init.cfg and just placed "%1 %2 %3 %4 %5" (without quotes again) on the first line and saved it. if you are too lazy to do this then download the init.zip and extract this to the config folder under the AssaultCube directory

Please note you need to change the start in directory the root directory of AssaultCube in this case its "C:\Programs\AssaultCube\"

This is a much safer way than downloading a .exe file.

You have no idea what it could be doing unless you test it.
I don't want to compromise my computer by trying.
