Hello.
I'm wondering if there is a way to create a desktop link to rust experimental.
Right now I have to go to steam and select it every time.
Right click Rust in Steam, select "Create Desktop Shortcut"
it creates a shortcut to rust legacy.
what I'm missing?

Rightclick your Desktop, New/Shortcut, in Path add:
[code]
D:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\common\Rust\experimental\RustClient.exe
[/code]
Change code to fit your own location of Rust Experimental.
nope, it launches rust but then I cannot connect to any server since steam is not loaded with it.

I guess it doesn't find servers because starting the game directly might bypass the launch of EAC.
I'm sure Experimental will have it's own GameID some day.
*EDIT* Typos.
Make the shortcut launch Rust.exe instead of Rustclient.exe out of the experimental directory. Rust.exe initializes EAC and then hands control to Rustclient.exe which is the actual game binary.

Indeed, I guess I did'nt paste my shortcut code correct, as it has Rust.exe as you mention, and not RustClient.exe which I posted in the code, anywho, thanks for pointing it out, hopefully OP will enjoy it.
