download shortcut dll

IF I remember correctly, you can add parameters to the launch by adding '-' in front of the shortcut.

Example: "C:\Program Files\some\some.exe -lol -parameters"

That should pass the parameters 'lol' and 'parameters' when the program executes.

no, that would execute "......some.exe -parameters" that is if the program checks for a "-"sign, i dont check
you should check the Windows Shell script i posted someplace in here

You probably arent correctly defining the icon or the exe path.

Download shortcut DLL

I haven't been able to verify that this version works I just found it and uploaded it.
I don't have Gamemaker on this PC so I couldnt test it. If it doesnt work let me know.

Also if anyone wants to host this file somewhere just let me know and ill ad it to the mirrors.

when the save box comes up you have to type .lnk after the filename so for example for the first argument if you want to make a shortcut that has the name test you would put test.lnk instead of just test when the save window comes up.

The link works fine for me. I've been doing site maintainance lately that may have caused the problem. Try again and if the problem continues let me know and I'll try to resolve the issue.

I know this is a year-old topic I'm bumping, but... I need the ability to create shortcuts for a quick helper app I'm making. This is the only GM DLL I've found that can do it. However, it works and doesn't work at the same time. By that I mean it correctly creates the shortcuts, but as soon as it does my GM program crashes with an unexpected error.

All I'm doing is calling the default script. Is this a problem with the DLL (I'm running Win7 Home Premium 64-bit if it matters)?
