Command Line
These arguments can be added after the last quotation mark in the target in the properties of your Guild Wars 2 shortcut.
- -autologin
- If client is set to remember Account Name and Password the game will login on launch.
- -bmp
- Forces the game to create screenshots as .BMP files. Use for creating high-quality screenshots at the expense of much larger files.
- -diag
- Creates, at startup, a detailed diagnostic logfile which contains data about connection tests and hardware information, located in your game directory or "Documents\Guild Wars 2" (NetworkDiag.log). Useful for determining what is wrong when Guild Wars 2 is not functioning properly.
- Important: The program terminates after the logfile is created; since Guild Wars 2 will not be able run with this parameter on, make sure to remove it once Guild Wars 2 has finished creating the logfile.
- -email <string>
- Sets the e-mail address, as specified in <string>, on the log-in screen. Combine with -password to create an auto-log-in shortcut for a specific account.
- -fps <number>
- Sets maximum frames per second parameter, as specified in <number>.
- -image
- Forces the game to download all known updates.
- The program terminates after the update is completed; Guild Wars 2 will not be able run with this parameter on.
- Recommended: Create an extra Guild Wars 2 shortcut (e.g. "Guild Wars 2 Updater") specifically to use this command line switch.
- -image updates gw2.dat; after updating, that file can be be transferred over to other machines.
- There can be up to 25 gigabytes of data to download. Once -image completes, the exact file size of gw2.dat will vary across installations.
- The program terminates after the update is completed; Guild Wars 2 will not be able run with this parameter on.
- -mce
- Start the client with Windows Media Center compatibility, switching the game to full screen and restarting Media Center (if available) after the client is closed.
- -noui
- Disables the user interface, producing the same effect as when one pushes Ctrl+Shift+H in-game to toggle it.
- -nosound
- Disables audio system completely.
- -password <string>
- Enables auto-log-in if <string> is the correct password for the account, and either (A) is used with -email or (B) details have previously been saved using the "Remember Account Name" checkbox. This argument must not be preceded by any other argument.
- Warning: Putting your password in a shortcut or a batch file makes it easily accessible to everybody with access to your computer. Never use this option if you are sharing your computer with other people whom you do not trust.
- -perf
- Displays performance indicators such as; Triangles, memory usage, frames per second and transfer rate in bytes per second are displayed in multi-colored text in the middle of the right side of the Guild Wars 2 window.
- -repair
- Start the client, checks the files for errors and repair then was needed.
- -windowed
- Forces Guild Wars 2 to run in windowed mode.
- Note: You can easily switch to windowed mode by pressing Alt+Enter or clicking the window icon in the upper right corner while the game is already running.
