Sometimes it's really, really hard not to type "Oh for ***** sake...."

Just use that key on your keyboard marked "Delete" or "Del" (minus the quotes of course :wink: ) to delete the " in the shortcut properties box.

No need to go to such ridiculous lengths as re-installing the game, as the shortcut you've created has absolutely nothing to do with the game itself, other than referencing it!!

Exactly how are you creating the shortcut?

We should have spotted this earlier, but...

you have a space in the path to the .exe, and when that's the case shortcuts need the target enclosing in quotes. That breaks the extra commands though.

So your options are:

a) Live without AsyncKeys
b) Launce the game through the Steam client with the command specified in there
c) Move Steam/TS into a directory structure with no spaces in the path---if you went this way it'd also make sense to have the Steam files in a Steam folder, rather than a renamed one so
..\TrainSimulator\Steam\steamapps\common.....
would be the preferred option.

Try putting

Code: Select all

 EnableAsyncKeys
after the closing quote. No idea if it'll work but you've nothing to lose by trying. Don't forget there needs to be a space between the quote and the command.
