Gamebooster is a neat little application I found that allows me to remove all FPS lowering devices while playing games. It works by putting the shortcut of the game into the little GUI it has. I always start FTB from my download files, an Executable Jar File. How do I get the FTB Launcher Shortcut, something I can put on my desktop and what not.

Anyone who has used Gamebooster before, do I only need to put the Launcher itself into it's screen and launch it from there? Or do I put Minecraft itself?

I'm running Windows 7.

Create a shortcut pointing to a batch file with the following
Code:
java -jar LAUNCHERFILE.jar
That batch file should be in the same directory as your launcher jarfile, and remember to change LAUNCHERFILE.jar to whatever your jar file is named.

Alright, I understand everything but:
  • Batch file
  • java -jar LAUNCHERFILE.jar
  • jarfile
So how do I do...all of that?

I'm sorry, I am not very good with computers, you may not code in Noob++, but that's all I understand. :oops:

A batch file is just a text file with a runnable extension.
To make one you'd just open Notepad, type in the "java -jar YOURLAUNCHERFILE.jar" and then Save As... , change the save as filetype to All Types (*.*) , then save it as anythingyouwant.bat , in the same location as your launcher jar.

Sorry for the slow reply, haven't been on the forums in a while...

Well, thank you for all your help, I did what you said, and it pulls up a screen for a micro-second that I cannot see, though I do know it has a line (or two) of code in it. It wanted me to replace FTB_Launcher.jar, which I didn't, and I then found out by right clicking FTB_Launcher.jar, I can choose an option "create shortcut". Which made me feel really dumb because I didn't even attempt to do it myself (except the noob original: the drag&drop attempt).
But yeah, Right click, create shortcut. Thank you for your help though I appreciate it :)
