What are you making?

cycloOP•8mo ago

a fortnite launcher

Jimmacle•8mo ago

what do you think, is

System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox, Text: C:\Users\court\Downloads\12.00\FortniteGame\Binaries\Win64\FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe

a valid path on your computer?

cycloOP•8mo ago

yes

Jimmacle•8mo ago

you are ignoring the first part of the string what i sent is the exact path it's trying to find, which wouldn't be a valid path on any computer

cycloOP•8mo ago

to what part C:\Users\court\Downloads\12.00 thats vaild on my desktop

x0rld•8mo ago

your variable from your form is a class or a string ?

Jimmacle•8mo ago

that isn't the first part of your string you are trying to use this exact text as your path

System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox, Text: C:\Users\court\Downloads\12.00\FortniteGame\Binaries\Win64\FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe

System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox, Text: C:\Users\court\Downloads\12.00\FortniteGame\Binaries\Win64\FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe

when you want

C:\Users\court\Downloads\12.00\FortniteGame\Binaries\Win64\FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe

C:\Users\court\Downloads\12.00\FortniteGame\Binaries\Win64\FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe

cycloOP•8mo ago

oh so how do i make it only that when my code is a simple

c#
string FN = System.IO.Path.Combine(FortniteInstallLabel + "\\FortniteGame\\Binaries\\Win64\\FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe");

ProcessStartInfo actualFortnitePathInfo = new ProcessStartInfo
{
    FileName = FortniteInstallLabel + "\\FortniteGame\\Binaries\\Win64\\FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe",
    Arguments = "-epicapp=Fortnite -epicenv=Prod -epicportal -epiclocale=en-us -skippatchcheck -NOSSLPINNING -FORCECONSOLE",
    UseShellExecute = false
};

c#
string FN = System.IO.Path.Combine(FortniteInstallLabel + "\\FortniteGame\\Binaries\\Win64\\FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe");

ProcessStartInfo actualFortnitePathInfo = new ProcessStartInfo
{
    FileName = FortniteInstallLabel + "\\FortniteGame\\Binaries\\Win64\\FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe",
    Arguments = "-epicapp=Fortnite -epicenv=Prod -epicportal -epiclocale=en-us -skippatchcheck -NOSSLPINNING -FORCECONSOLE",
    UseShellExecute = false
};

Jimmacle•8mo ago

FortniteInstallLabel is not a string, it's a RichTextBox you want to access whatever property contains the actual text the user put in probably .Text

cycloOP•8mo ago

propb a label1

Buddy•8mo ago

What exactly is the point of the launcher? Doesn't Epic Games already have one?

cycloOP•8mo ago

its like a private sverver for fortnite

Jimmacle•8mo ago

is that allowed by the fortnite TOS?

cycloOP•8mo ago

Flourish0x•8mo ago

@leowest why the reaction? it is allowed. as long as there is no in-game cosmetic it's allowed epic posts older dev builds on their github as well

leowest•8mo ago

because private servers are against fortnite TOS

Flourish0x•8mo ago

no they aren't

leowest•8mo ago

right LMAO

Flourish0x•8mo ago

wtv u say

Flourish0x•8mo ago

idk

leowest•8mo ago

thanks for quoting an unrelated part of their TOS 🙂

Flourish0x•8mo ago

leowest•8mo ago

I am afraid u dont understand what a private server entails to even further continue the conversation so refrain from quoting me.
