Create desktop shortcuts to your favorite server

[DustyPorViva]

Only play one server? No need to bother going through login and such? Well, you can easily create an icon on your desktop to sign directly onto a server.

First, right click your desktop and click to create a new shortcut:

Then, in the next window:

type in:
graal://servername

For example:
graal://Era
However, for servers with more than one word, you can either just include the first word(like "unholy" for unholy nation) or include the name in quotation marks.
graal://"Unholy Nation"

Click next, input the name of the shortcut(servername...?), and finish. When you're done, it should automatically assign the Graal icon to it like in the image:


Then just to try it and make sure it works

Pretty nice.

Really nice, i even decided to look for a icon generator, to give it a custom icon, not as ugly as the graal one. And pulled one of aeko's icons through it, the site i used didn't keep the transparency though

Your wallpaper...Liberated, clearly we're destined for each other.

If you have Photoshop, you can find plugins that will give photoshop the ability to save in .ico format

A quick google search should do.

I've been doing this for years now, closest thing to having 'Favorite servers', i guess.

Yeah I've been doing this as well because N-Pulse is the only server I usually hop on and don't wanna go through the log in screen every time I want to get on player.

Might I ask you for the icon generator site you used?

Windows users are too lazy and skip the login process but pretty useful if you use Windows, although it is only saving around 2 - 3 seconds of time so I don't mind as much.
