Automatically Connecting To A Server?

[Jakg]

I want to add something to BF2 shortcut so it automatically connects to a server and types the password for me - can it be done? and if so, how?

Add to shortcut:
+playerName yourname +playerPassword yourpassword

Note the capitalized N and P, these must be there!

For disabling intro movies:
+restart

I wasnt able to connect to servers through xfire long ago and reinstalling xfire fixed it

+joinServer IP aadress

If passworded server, then add:
+password password

no matter what i try it says invalid password, when it's right

Very strange. Try +password before +joinServer, maybe this help?

PS: you see all console commands yourself when you add to shortcut: +help

Use the BF2 protocol handler instead.
