Title: Problem getting the game to play in windowed mode
Post by: Jess Maree on 2008 July 04, 05:21:25
Basically whenever I try and modify the shortcut for TS2 to play it in windowed mode my computer chucks a message at me:
(http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk49/Jess-Maree/problemwithgettinggameinwindowedmod.jpg)

It's annoying as all hell. I know I'm doing it right, but it still doesn't like it. Or I could be an ultra stupid ESFP who can't read basic directions.

Any ideas?

You're doin' it wrong... Should be "D:\Games\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 FreeTime\TSBin\Sims2EP7.exe" -w (with space before the -w switch)

Jess, you just need to put a space between the text and -w

You are only playing up to Seasons, right? Your program files are still on your C: drive, right?
