    Exclamation Trouble finding command line options

    OK, in this webpage, http://code.google.com/p/keeperfx/wi...andLineOptions, it stats the command line options. Basically I want to slightly reduce the speed of the game. The question is, how do I go about finding the file to edit these options? I am a bit lost here. Any advise would be much appreciated.

    Command line options are options in command line (doh), so there's no file.

    If you want to do this the easy way, use launcher. I did spent time to write that tool, so I hope someone is using it.

    Thanks but how do I actually use the launcher to do it? For example, I want to lower the speed of the game. I am really not sure about these things.

    Thanks.

    The option is either named Game Turns Per Second or Frames Per Second, I can't remember. Less frames means slower game.

    Hi, I am having some trouble here. In the launcher options, I clicked on "Run options". There I saw the command line options. I ticked on "Set turns/sec" and set the value to 10. Moreover, on the upper area of the Command line options, I noticed this sentence, "keeperfx.exe -fps 10".
    This sentence is located just above the "Executable file" sentence.

    However, when I start the game, the game speed is still at the same rate before I changed the value to 10. Why is this so?

    Please advise. As I am new to your program, I am not sure how to set the game speed slower.

    Thank you for your kind patience.

    That may sound stupid but did you launch the game from the launcher ?

    Yes, I launch the game from the launcher. Then how am I suppose to run the game using Dungeon Keeper FX? By the way, the icon of the launcher has a picture of the Horn Reaper. Am I doing this right?

    When the game is executed with the parameters which you've enabled in launcher, it works at lower speed.

    I just checked that function and it worked.

    As about icon - I think all 3 EXE files in KeeperFX (launcher, standard game, heavylog game) have the same horny icon.

    Yes, you are right. I double checked it and the function works!

    Thanks!
