Launch TF2BD through Steam when launching TF2

Open sticks-stuff opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

A clear and concise description of what the problem is. I'd like to be able to launch TF2 through Steam while still having TF2 bot detector.

Describe the solution you'd like I launch TF2 through Steam, TF2 bot detector opens with opens TF2

Describe alternatives you've considered You can 'hijack' the launch option by including %command% somewhere in your launch options (which will be replaced with the command Steam is trying to run). Something like C:\Users\stick\Downloads\PazerOP_tf2_bot_detector_1.2.0.798_tf2-bot-detector_x64-windows_1.2.0.798_Release\tf2_bot_detector & %command% will launch TF2 bot detector when TF2 is launched through Steam however as TF2BD reads the launch options from Steam again in order to try and launch TF2, it doesn't actually work.

Additional context Maybe allow me to specify my launch options inside TF2BD instead of reading them from Steam?

TF2BD wants to be the thing that launches tf2 to set the proper launch options. This appears to have steam still as the thing that launches tf2. Have you tried specifying the expected options?

Also you can just add tf2bd to steam and set it to auto launch tf2.
