Xfire - Page 2

Xfire still thinks regnum uses ROClientGame.exe, but in fact it's ROClientGameEX.exe now (for vista/7), hence no xfire ingame or game hours.

You can however adjust xfire_games.ini and change ROClientGame.exe to ROClientGameEX.exe, but you'll have to do that after every xfire update. And there's still no xfire ingame visible, some other values need to be adjusted, too, but I don't know which ones. :S

Sounds bad for vista/7 users. Anyone post that information to Xfire support team? I think they could do something with that. Or in the other hand, vista/7 users can always use a Pidgin with Gfire plugin

It might be possible to create a symbolic link from ROClientGame.exe to ROClientGameEX.exe - that might fool xfire. (Untested - I don't have xfire.)

Dunno if there is something like symbolic links in windows

Anyway, Xfire probably searches game via process list, so running game still would be ROClientGameEX.exe

mklink should exist for vista and win7 afaik, but wikipedia says you're right about searching running processes, so yeah, links are a fail.
