How to get faster to the Online/LAN room

[ZentineZ]

1. First you have to go to your bnw directory,

2. Then click on "Runblack.exe" (If CI, CreatureIsle.exe") then copy the (EXE) file.

3. Then name the copy file.exe to "Black and white multiplayer" and if for CI, Creature isle multiplayer.

4. Then right click on the exe file and choose properties.

5. Now, change the path like this: "I:\Program\Lionhead Studios Ltd\Black & White\runblack.exe" /Multiplayer"

6. And for CI, "I:\Program\Lionhead Studios Ltd\Black & White\CreatureIsle\CreatureIsle.exe" /Multiplayer"

Now if you click on it, You will directly come to the Online/LAN room! Instead of coming to your profile first.

Maybe not the most useful guide but allways something?

That is a handy trick. Here's a list of other switches which can be used:

/FORCEINETCONN
Forces Black & White to use internet connection.
/LAND
Starts a skirmish game of Black & White with the specified land.
/MULTIPLAYER
Runs Black & White in multiplayer mode. Bypasses the single player mode and launches directly into the Multiplaying Game Lobby.
/NEWGAME
Creates a new game. Allows instant access for creating a new character.
/NOLOADMUSIC
Disables CD Music. Excellent for LAN play and troubleshooting Black & White.
/PREINTROVIDEO
Views the video shown on startup when you load Black & White for the first time.
/SKIRMISH
Launches directly into Black & White skirmish selection. Bypasses single player mode.
/NOINETCONN
Forces Black & White to use no internet connection.
