Server Startup Script 1 Window

[opyrus]

i really did not like how most start up scripts listed around open 3 separate windows to run the server rather messy so i did a script to merge all 3 in to 1 nice neat window easy to manage. its rather simple code listed below makes use of the /B dos command its not much but i wanted to share.


@echo off
Echo Starting Server
start /B minilogin.exe
start /B world.exe
start /B eqlaunch.exe zone

[opyrus]

I then took this a step further i made a startup and shutdown batch file.

Startup.bat

@echo off
Echo Starting Server
start /B minilogin.exe
start /B world.exe
start /B eqlaunch.exe zone


Shutdown.bat

taskkill /F /IM MiniLogin.exe /T
taskkill /F /IM eqlaunch.exe /T
taskkill /F /IM World.exe /T
taskkill /F /IM Zone.exe /T


Then i grabbed a simple bat to exe converter an made 2 exe files that both run entirely invisible no windows on the desktop from 1 to none =D. now i have a nice neat 1 click startup and shutdown system for my server "abyss".
