Your Freelancer shortcut.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\EXE\Freelancer.exe -command -command

where command is one of those command thingies.

Or, do as I do, and edit dsupdate.cfg's flargs line and put them there, then point your FL shortcut to DSupdate.exe

Though apparently some people don't like me doing that >.>

Make a shortcut to freelancer and put them in (At least, I believe this is how you do it)

i dont know if the other guys were clear on this or not....

on your desktop, assuming you have a shortcut to discovery freelancer on your desktop
- right click the icon
- click on the shortcut tab, at the top
- there is a box that says Target:
inside that box, it should say "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\freelancerDisc\EXE\Freelancer.exe"

put your commands outside the quotations.

mine says this:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\freelancerDisc\EXE\Freelancer.exe" -d1152x864 -newplayer -dptplayer -lag

then click ok and launch freelancer from that icon.

this method doesnt work if you launch freelancer from FLAM, btw

EDIT: crap....
