Upon installing a UGX map via the .exe it comes with, I get a new folder featuring a shortcut. This shortcut leads to my CoDWaW.exe file and has the extra notation +set fs_game "mods/mod name here" (iirc).

But this is all stuff you know.

The thing is, it doesn't launch the Steam overlay, so I can't view my FPS and message people through Steam. I tried replacing the .exe shortcut with steam://rungameid/10090 and using an internet shortcut instead, but when I do that, the mod isn't loaded. Is there any way that I can have a shortcut launch the game with the mod AND have the Steam overlay available?

Thanks, ~wundr

Edit: Oh wait, you probably know this but wanted something for convenience. lol

Edit2: Figured it out, with a url shortcut put this:

Code Snippet
Plaintext
steam://run/10090//+set fs_game mods\<modname>

(must be a backslash after mods like shown)
