How to skip the launcher
Hi!
I set my screen resolution to my monitor's native rez (1366 x 768) with the config file because this rez is not offered in the launcher application.

However, when I restart the game, the launcher application pops up and forces me to select a resolution -- none of which are 1366 x 768.

Is there anyway to override or bypass the launcher application so that the game follows the config file? Thanks. -FM

I found a solution to my own problem on NeoGaf, for future reference for anyone who cares to read this:

To skip the launcher you can copy stranger.exe from the bin folder, place it back up in the Stranger's Wrath folder and rename it to Launcher.exe (rename the original to something else).

Thanks .. i managed to fix the launcher not starting with this method

I mean i ran the game once , and it failed to start the second time, even tho i could launch the game both from the Launcher.exe and the stranger.exe in the bin folder just fine by double clicking on it .. (maybe there is something wrong with the Launcher.exe)

Thanks again for this info .. at least achievements should still work .. i hope
