Guild Wars 2 Command Line Tips - Guild Wars Hub

Guild Wars 2 Command Line Tips

Guild Wars 2 has several command line arguments that can be added to the launcher short-cut and will take effect when the game is started. These commands affect behaviors such as login, diagnostics, and graphics/audio.

GW2 Properties

To use these commands you need to right-click on the GW2 short-cut and select “Properties”. From there navigate to the “Target Area” field where the GW2 executable should be indicated:

"...Guild Wars 2Gw2.exe"

The desired command line arguments should be added after the quotation marks, with each argument beginning with a space:

"...Guild Wars 2Gw2.exe" -windowed

The above command will run Guild Wars 2 in windowed mode. Here are some of the most useful command line arguments:

-autologin

The “autologin” command will log you in automatically, assuming that you have the game client set to remember your account name and password.

-bmp

The “bmp” command forces the game to save screenshots as .bmp files. BMP files are higher quality and larger size.

-maploadinfo

The “maploadinfo” command shows diagnostic information such as loading percentage and time elapsed during the map loading screen.

-nomusic

Self-explanatory, this command will cause the game to run without music.

-noui

The “noui” command will run the game without the user interface, similar to pressing “shift+control+h” in-game.

-nosound

The “nosound” command runs the game without any sound at all, including music and other system sounds.

-prefreset

“prefreset” will launch the game, resetting all of the in game preferences.

-repair

The “repair” command will initiate a repair of the Guild Wars 2 data file the next time the game is launched.

-uispanallmonitors

In a triple monitor setup, this command will enable the User Interface to spread out across all monitors.

-useOldFov

This command will disable the wide-screen Field of View enhancements, restoring the old Field of View.
