-filesys in the shortcut

[Bodenheimer]

how do u add the -filesys into the shortcut??

[Spinner]

First create a copy of you’re Starshatter short cut and name it something like "B5 Hold the line" then right click on it and select properties, then where it says target "C:\Matrix Games\Starshatter\Stars.exe" or something similar
You need to add -filesys
Note. there should be a space between the .exe" and the -filesys part so the end target should look like this

"C:\Matrix Games\Starshatter\Stars.exe" -filesys

Click apply and this will activate the mod for you next time you use the short cut [:D]
