Yes it places all the command lines into the the little slot in the retail launcher too.

Yes, I will fix this for the next official build.
It requires change to launcher and fs2_open so I'll leave it to the last moment to avoid version problems.

i think we should move it from a file to the registry perhaps?

Kazan, dont worry about this one, there is an easy fix.
I have to do it just before 3.6 or users will get in a mess.

Fixed, launcher v5 now creates cmdline_fso.cfg instead of cmdline.cfg.
As of the 1st May 2004 fs2_open builds look for that file.
This means FS2 will not pickup flags it makes from now on.
However, people who have already used previous versions will need to delete cmdline.cfg to stop FS2.exe crashing.
