Hello...tried this game booster...broke my golden rule about backing things up before playing with something and now am paying for it. Cannot run ETO????

Drag and dropped the ETO Start icon to window in lower right hand of screen...clicked on it, game booster launched, game ran, shutdown game, game booster did its thing and restarted all process and services it disabled...then right clicked on ETO start icon in game booster window and clicked on "restore icon"...well it removed it from game booster window but didn't put it back on desktop...hhhmmm...how to start ETO now...searched ETO directory (folder) but it is not there...clicking on cfs3.exe starts game but in the last mode started....no menu choices...hhhhmmmm....so reinstalled ETO but it does not create that icon to start ETO...it does the others???

So can someone tell me what the "target" box displays...example for the PTO icon it dosplays

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\CFS3 PTO Solomon Islands\cfs3.exe" -time

I can just make a new one with this info...thks

Does this really work? And are there downsides?

Guys

It works. That is what I have used for a long time. Try it. You can change the icon, too

God bless

Well, I've downloaded, installed it, dropped the ETO icon into the Game Booster box and then re-established the ETO icon to the desktop. But can anyone explain how this works? Do you start up Game Booster, then start ETO (or any other CFS3 install) the normal way? And what was the point of putting the ETO icon in the game booster box?

Any advise would be great.

You do not have to put the ETO icon in the Game Booster box to work. Just start Game Booster then click to Boost.

To clean up my desk top I use RocketDock. "RocketDock allows you quick, convenient access to your favorite programs and most commonly used folders."

http://rocketdock.software.en.softonic.com/download?gclid=CIPFwJOxxaYCFdVf2godFQirJw


Don't forget the more you have on your Desktop. The harder you PC has to work when flying. because your deck top is running in the back ground.

There is probable a video on YouTube showing how it works. I do highly recommend this. Some times a little is a lot with FPS.

The 2ed RocketDock video is how I have my desktop.
This will get you better FPS.

i have my entire ETO directory (all 9.4Gb of it) inside a folder on my desktop - in Desktop\cfs3 eto\CFS3 ETO Expansion. will that slow me down?

Installed the latest Game Booster - it definitely does what it says. The older version was a bit disappointing, at least on my ageing rig. Heartily recommended! I'm now on a resolution of 1920x1200 in MAW where before I was on 1440x900. FPS globally manageable, though I may drop down a bit for European flying owing to the thicker scenery.

ndicki, I very happy that this is helping your rig.

You just made my day.:wiggle:
