ED Launcher Command Line Option

[de Carabas]

I only read about about this yesterday so thought I would post it. If you are a Horizons owner and have access to Beta then you could have 8 different game types to choose from in the launcher. If you add the command line option /edh to either a shortcut or to the ScreenShotChanger app launcher section then it will load up the ED Launcher with the blue interace and a cut down option list (only the live and beta Horizons options).

I've tried looking to see if there are any other command line options but so far not found anything.

Works swimmingly

Sure clears the clutter out of the list.

Great find, de Carabas!

Thank you very much indeed

Thanks. It's nice not seeing all the clutter.
Now I'll just have to remember this in case it prevents listing some future upgrade.

For those less technically inclined, like myself (it took a few attempts to find the right location), if using the desktop shortcut, add the /edh at the end of the Target line, outside of the quotes, and with a space.

Just confirming it also works for the Steam Launcher. Just Right Click -> Properties, tab General and button Launch Options. Just putting /edh in there ensures I always get Horizon's 64-bit.

I wouldn't mind as much if the Launcher defaulted to Horizon's 64-bit in its menu, but it very much does not, and it's too easy to launch the 32-bit legacy version.

Oh crap, I discovered this last week after posting to tech support about it and never posted it here. Good thing someone remembered
