Would you like to create a batch file to run multiple patchers/programs with one click?
Does your Updater not launch programs properly via settings?
This is how to create a file to open DrumsUI Updater and EQ2Map Updater simultaneious via a
Batch file.
- First, open your Start Menu and search for DrumsUI Updater so that it shows it as a result. (Alternatively, right-click the shortcut on your desktop)
- Right-click DrumsUI Updater and hit Properties.
- This will show the Properties window of your DrumsUI shortcut. Leave this window open.
- Open Notepad
- Paste this in:
Code:
@echo OFF
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\javaws.exe" -localfile -J-Djnlp.application.href=http://updater.pala.de/drumsui.jnlp "C:\Users\***\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\51\67d8c133-5efb0fd2"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\EQ2MAP Updater\EQ2MAP_Updater.exe"
- Now Copy the Target line from the Properties window that you have open. It will look something like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\javaws.exe" -localfile -J-Djnlp.application.href=http://updater.pala.de/drumsui.jnlp "C:\Users\***\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\51\67d8c133-5efb0fd2"
- Paste the contents of the Target OVER TOP of the entire Line 2 of the code you have in Notepad. (What is above is just an example for you to replace)
- You'll have to replace Line 3 with the proper location of your EQ2MAP_Updater.exe. You can find this by similarly right-clicking your shortcut for that.
- Now File > Save As... in Notepad.
- Change the Save As Type to All Files (*.*)
- Name the file Updaters.bat (or name it whatever you would like)
- Save it to your desktop.
So basically each line is just a program to launch essentially.
If you would like to change the icon of your batch file, the best way is to move the batch file into your Documents, right-click it and Send To Desktop (Create Shortcut). This will make a Shortcut to the batch file. Shortcuts can have their icons changed by right-clicking them, and hitting Change Icon.
