Bounty for no command window when launching cherry pick

Open pabloa2 opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

I will send you 20 dollars for adding this option from fabricecaruso's build.

Stop using _wsystem for launching games. Run games with ShellExecuteEx instead ( avoids command window )

Thank you for continuing to build this, this is the only thing that I think would largely benefit your build.

If I knew how to compile his build I would just do that but there are no instructions except very old guide that doesn't work for new builds anymore.

Here is the actual commit. It took me a while to find it. You can search for "SHELL" in the commit and it will take you to the changes he made for _wsystem.
