How to insert stuff in Command Prompt

Postby Jonathan » Sun May 23, 2010 2:13 pm

Hi,

I need to insert the following command

Code: Select all
--telnet=5000


into my FG. But how do I do it? I'm not having much success with the command prompt in Windows.

By the way, FG 2.0 and Windows XP.

Altough it's not a nice way, you can add it right behind the fgfs.exe on the first page of the wizard (that's previous from Aircraft Selection). Check the "Show commandline" on the last page of the wizard (before clicking Run), to see if it's insterted correctly.

Cheers,
Gijs
