Xfire? in my phase shift?!?

[chunkatuff]

yes! kinda.. i did a little work (and i do mean little) and found out how to make Xfire record phase shift and maybe do some other Xfirey stuff too.. i dont know what all it can do without being official but it cant record your playtime since its not officially supported.. anyway heres how you do it.. go into the xfire_games.ini and put in (at the very bottom) everything in this spoiler

SPOILER: Click to show

[6298]
LongName=Phase Shift
ShortName=PS
LauncherDirDefault=C:\Program Files\Phase Shift
LauncherExe=Phase Shift.exe
Launch=%UA_LAUNCHER_EXE_PATH% %UA_LAUNCHER_EXTRA_ARGS% %UA_LAUNCHER_NETWORK_ARGS%
InGameRenderer=D3D9
InGameFlags=USE_PRESENT|ENABLE_MOUSE|USE_DINPUT_MOUSE

this may change for you specifically at the LauncherDirDefault=C:\Program Files\Phase Shift part.. you will have to change that to whatever folder is holding phase shifts .exe file and youll have to change LauncherExe=Phase Shift.exe to (whatever you named your phase shift).exe or just keep it as i put it and make sure phase shifts .exe is named Phase Shift.exe and the [6298] part should probably not be the same number as any other game supported by Xfire.. you can probably change that to something more permanent (like [9999]) but i didnt test that out.. you will want to keep this information handy though cause from what i hear when Xfire adds more game support whatever you changed in the .ini file will be gone.. i dont know if this is exactly the right information to put in Xfire to make it detect the game as it should but ive had no problems with it and when i tried a few other things instead the game had problems so this is probably the right way to do it

P.S. i dont think the xfire_games.ini will be there when its updating (usually when you first open Xfire) cause its making a new one.. also for the xfire_games.ini changes to take effect you need to close Xfire and reopen it or maybe just have it redetect the installed games.. idk exactly but the Xfire FAQ said thats what you had to do (close and reopen xfire) for other similar problems

wow good job i need to try this out, will this put in my status that im playing PS like other games? or does this only work to get it to record?

Shouldn't the title be "Phase Shift? In MY xFire?"
I did the same thing for fofix awhile back.
It shows up through xFire but for some reason it doesn't show up in their signature thing.

@kick i tried making an icon (a score bubble (AKA stars in other games) in case you were wondering) just for no good reason and it didnt seem to work.. so i asked someone about it and they said they dont see me playing anything so thats that i guess

tallica perhaps i should have named it that but either one seems to work imo and i could have saved a little time is i understood what you meant earlier lol D:

anyway we need to get phase shift on Xfire officially imo but idk if we should wait or start asking for it now or what were gonna do
