RimWorld

RimWorld

Want to default to Rimworld 64 bit in Windows? Answer within!
So, thanks to Donald23 (mod over on the Civ6 steam forums), he posted a link to a reddit post explaining how to get DX12 to be the default when launching via Steam.

link to relevant post:
https://www.reddit.com/r/civ/comments/5jl6u5/force_civ_vi_to_start_w_dx12_by_default/dbh4s4y

To do the same (but 64 bit instead of DX12) for Rimworld:

Right click on Rimworld in your Steam library.
Go into properties.
Click the "Set Launch Options" button

in there place a link that has this (change if your RW install location is different from mine), folloiwng is all on one line, just broken up by Steam forum width:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RimWorld\RimworldWin64.exe" %command%

Now, 64 bit version launches when you start Rimworld via these Steam methods:
A: Using Steam created desktop link
B: Clicking on Steam tray icon and selecting Rimworld
note: Clicking Play in Steam application still brings up box asking which version to launch

Of course, thanks also to reddit user 'CabooseFails'
