Nostromo and SF expansion

[dez_decapatron]

HI all, i just got the SF expansion and i'm trying to launch the game via my nostromo. If I launch from the SF shortcut on the desktop, the original BF2 game automatically runs. If i click on the SF icon on the desktop, the SF game runs.

I just can't seem to find the location of the SF .exe file that is needed to launch via nostromo. Any help is appreciated.

The exe that start BF2 and BF2:SF is the same one, bf2.exe.

It just adds some parameters so it luches the BF2:SF expansion.

..\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +modPath mods/xpack +ignoreAsserts 1

Not sure if you can just add the parameteres after bf2.exe in Nostromo Loadout Manager, haven't tried it myself, I always start the game via shortcuts.

exactly! Unfortunately I can not seem to add those parameters manually after the .exe filepath in the loadout manager. Are you saying that you don't use your nostromo when you play BF2 SF? or you lauch the game via the shortcuts and are able to use the nostromo as well?

Mine is always set to manuel.

But if you just set the bf2.exe path for SF and BF2 it should use the layout when in Automatica Mode if bf2.exe is launched.

You don't have to launch it from the loadout manager, it should detect the game running in the background and set the correct layout when it detects the .exe is running. This works only if you have same layout for BF2 and SF of course.
