Then, create a new shortcut from the new exe, and place it on your desktop.
Add the peremiters you want to the shortcut, and apply.
Don't get it. Why would you have to create a new shortcut? Does the name of the EXE change??

Plus, it crashes the first try and runs fine after that. The shortcut is not at fault, but possibly a switch is causing the problem.

Thank you Mr. Halsey! I forgot to delete the old File and copy the new execute file to the desk top. After doing that I get no more crash on first try. Just had to put all my switches back in properly, but got rid of that annoying crash.

FYI, this "bug" is gone with the new beta patch. The game now starts as ever before without crashing on the first try.

It must have been the 'quick' build method I used.
