Trying to start IL-2 with a batch file

[Lupus]

I'm trying to start IL-2 with a batch file and can't seem to get it to launch.  This is for the Non-Steam version of the game.

 

Can someone help?

 

Here is what I have so far:

 

CD\
E:
Start E:\IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles\bin\game\Il-2.exe

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

 

the correct string is as follows:

 

start "" /D E:\"IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles"\bin\game\ il-2.exe

 

Pay attention, it's important the space between game\ and il-2.exe. And run the batch as Administrator as well.

Thanks.  I also discovered that where I was placing the .bat file was having an impact.  I ended up shortening the string since I had it kept in the IL-2 folder.

@marcobonaIt's kicking back an error saying it can't find the il-2.exe.

 

*EDIT* Never mind, I had changed the name of the root directory to try and fix it between getting your correction. It's all working ok now.  Thank you for your help.
