How do i make TF2 start and connect to a server when windows starts up?

[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;47845468]make a batch file and save it in %appdata%\Roaming\Microsoft\windows\Start Menu\programs\Startup(open this in the run box by hitting Windows Key + R)

echo off
cls
echo Starting TF2
hl2.exe -game 440 -connect XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXXXX(replace Xs with IP and port)
pause

I don't think I'm missing out anything. But remember if the steam account doesn't have remember password checked it will ask for a password.[/QUOTE]

Shouldn't you be telling Windows to open the specific hl2.exe in the tf directory, so that it doesn't run HL2 or anything else?

[konkey]

wouldn't it be easier/more compatible to just do it like this?

echo off
cls
echo Starting TF2
start steam://connect/<ip>
pause

Also, I believe it should be "-game tf", not "-game tf2"
