Shortcut parameters to load with custom config

[mrprime]

Now that we have the DCS presets since the last patch (which are great! by the way), it'd be great to have a shortcut parameter we can set so we can load with a defined config, rather than having to open the game, select a config, and have it relaunch as it needs to restart for most settings changes.

 

That would enable shortcuts that enable VR and pick a predefined config, something like:

 

"C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin\DCS.exe" --force_enable_VR --set_config_1

 

I know 'DCS Updater Utility' exists and I'm very grateful for it, but it'd also be good to have out of the box functionality to launch with a pre-defined config :thumbup:

or/and maybe add those buttons to the very first login window?

That'd be cool actually - a standard lightweight launcher where you could pick config, VR and anything else that generally requires a client restart.

+1 .... I was actually just searching the forums on a way to create desktop shortcuts with custom config as a parameter.
