TOOL: 3Booter, the Incooperative Game Kicker
J. M. Pescado:
It doesn't make sense to me, either, so you are probably Doing It Wrong. 3booter and Fpslimiter are agnostic about your sgr files: They do not possess the ability to detect, read, or otherwise interact with those files, so their presence or lack thereof means nothing to them.
geminia:
I see. I still don't get why it did boot from the launcher fine though. Any chance that booter might be seeing something glitchy or buggy with the booting of the game that the stupid launcher does not recognise? Well if i'm doing it wrong, I don't think I have the skills to figure out what I'm doing wrong so I'll have to decide... fps limiter vs normal shadows .... I think I suddenly started liking blocky shadows, they give the game flavour :P
Madame Mim:
How many times did it do it? Maybe you just lucked out.
geminia:
I tried 3 times to run the game from booter. First time the cmd box came up and closed, second and 3rd time it opend and closed indefinatelly, untill I killed the proccess tree form task manager.
Then I tried through the launcher. First time the launcher crashed before it booted the game, second time it crashed but booted the game fine but then the game closed on me with no warning - crash to desktop - and third time launcher crashed again ( it always does since Ambitions) but booted the game fine and the game did not crash at all. Both times that I managed to open up my game, the shadows were perfect, but the GC was loud even with 75 fps tops. Skyrocketed to 450 though for a mere second though just before the game closed

This is a stand alone version of D3D Overrider ( which is usually a plugin for RivaTuner ) and some may find it useful as another option instead of FPS Limiter ( and forcing V-Sync through your graphics card drivers is often unsuccessful ) . With this you can force V-Sync AND Triple Buffering with it if forcing the V-Sync brings your performance down a little too much ( Triple Buffering compensates for it ) . You have the option of turning on V-Sync with or without Triple Buffering though with whatever game profiles you may wish to add to it ( or just load it with the global option ) . It's also easy to use in that you just load it up , select your profile , minimise it if you wish and then load your game as normal . No adding files to game directories involved . I'd suggest unzipping it to your normal Program Files folder for ease of use but I guess it should run from almost anywhere . I wouldn't suggest leaving it running permanently because it has compatibility issues with some programs ( as you can see by some of the profiles that are included with it that switch it off automatically for certain programs ) .
Works for XP upwards and both Radeon and NVidia Graphics .
And here's some discussion about it ( http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=208499 )
( PS . I take no credit for either this program made by the makers of RivaTuner nor this standalone version that was made by someone . I'm just posting it here for the benefit of you guys to help with your game ) .
