Railworks64 shortcut icon on desktop

Unread postby cnbalasub » Tue Jul 09, 2019 3:06 pm

I have a question about the shortcut icon with " Railworks64 " on my desktop. I was wondering if I can go directly to click Railworks64 icon to startup the program of Train Simulator 2019. Look like to me it doesn't and tell me that I have to login to Steam. But with Train Simulator icon ( which is 32-bit ) you don't have to click Steam on desktop just Train Simulator icon. Can I do with Railworks64 on desktop to click on to start the program of Train Simulator 2019. Or have to go to Steam icon to startup the program every time I login. Let me know if I can login right from the desktop icon with Railworks64 or not possible.

Thank you,

John

If I start TS from my 64 bit desktop shortcut and I do not have Steam open then I am prompted to start Steam. I believe this is normal. To start from your library page you would not need to do so because you need to start Steam to access the buttons.

Trevor -- want to say a big thank you about adding the icon to taskbar and it's working from there to click onto the program of Train Simulator 2019. That's a trick!

cheers,

John

If you still would like it on your desktop, you can go into your main TS directory and find the RailWorks64 application. Right click it and click create shortcut. You can drag the shortcut to your desktop and it should work. It launches 64-bit for me. Hope that helps.
