Star Wars: The Old Republic launcher wrapper which allows for the use of the Steam Overlay

Primary LanguageC#

Installation

Build Program.cs one of two ways:

Average Joe

  1. Copy the contents of Program.cs into a text file called Star Wars - The Old Republic.txt on your desktop.

  2. Open a command prompt Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt

  3. Copy/Paste the following command into the Command Prompt and hit enter. The code will take the contents of the text file you pasted and pass them into the C# (C Sharp) compiler on your system. It will create an exe file, Star Wars - The Old Republic.exe for you.

      %windir%\Microsoft.Net\Framework\v3.5\csc /platform:x86 ^
      "/out:%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Star Wars - The Old Republic.exe" ^
      "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Star Wars - The Old Republic.txt"
    
  4. Copy Star Wars - The Old Republic.exe from your desktop into SWToR's install folder. It is likely located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars - The Old Republic\

  5. Go into Steam and add the executable you just made to your Steam Library. Do this just like adding any other game, except that you will probably have to browse for it.

Programmer

  1. There's a whole Visual Studio 2010 solution here.
  2. You are a programmer. Figure it out.
