Code exec ("Star_Explorers.exe",NULL); sys_exit(""); return; This works well for restarting the game. But if I add the command line "-nwnd" to the exec command like this: Code exec ("Star_Explorers.exe","-nwnd"); sys_exit(""); return; It restarts the game, but then fails to load certain textures... I get the following error.. "Error E2005 Can't create DirectX texture crosshair.pcx" I'm wondering if there is a better way to do this.
