    Hi,

    I play a bit of BF Pirates, and the Pirates of Portaloise server is the best one for me all the time. Instead of starting Gamespy, clicking through all the screens and then it starting Pirates, how would I go about finding out what command line option Gamespy is using to connect?
    I tried bf1942.exe +game Pirates +server <ip>, but that didn't work.

    Make a shortcut to the game and type

    +restart 1 +joinServer (server ip)

    That should work, I think.

    See stickies has the correct syntax in there.

    Worked a charm. I had read the stickies before but couldn't remember seeing the cmd prompt stuff in there, but indeed it is. Coolio.
