Hmm, I think you might be able to do it with batch files. The only problem is, if you don't remember which personal folder you're currently using, the naming scheme will be off (i.e. using the track editing shortcut and getting the regular personal folder). All you would have to do to fix this is manually rename the folders correctly, or I guess rename the batch files .

Replace "you" with your PC account name, also adjust the mx.exe location accordingly. Make these two separate batch files.

Normal personal folder, assuming track editing personal folder currently loaded.

Code: Select all

Ren C:\Users\you\AppData\Local\"MX Simulator" "MX Simulator Track Editing"
Ren C:\Users\you\AppData\Local\"MX Simulator Normal" "MX Simulator"
START C:\Program Files\MX Simulator\mx.exe

• Line 1: Renames the current personal folder (the track editing one, currently loaded) to "MX SImulator Track Editing"
• Line 2: Renames "MX Simulator Normal" (the regular personal folder) to "MX Simulator" (loads to game).
• Line 3: Launches the game (add any addition parameters to the end like you normally would i.e. START C:\Program Files\MX Simulator\mx.exe --hidden-hud

You didn't change the 'you' to your actual account name, which would be Korey81.

[yzmxer608]

Actually, just replace C:\Users\you\AppData\Local with %LOCALAPPDATA%.

%LOCALAPPDATA%\"MX Simulator" "MX Simulator Track Editing"

Ohk ill try but and yer I changed you to Korey81

you make a text document and when saving it you select all types and MAKE SURE YOU PUT ".bat" on the end

Try putting quotes around that portion, like this: C:\"Program Files (x86)"\MX Simulator\mx.exe. You might have to do that with MX Simulator too.
