Don’t want to click another ‘Play’ button just to get into the game? Me neither!

Disabling the Paradox Launcher (Windows)

• Press the Windows key (it looks like a flag) and type in “command”.
• Right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
• Right-click Across the Obelisk (our favorite game!) in Steam and select Manage–>Browse local files.
• Click into the address bar and copy the path. It should look something like this:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam Games\steamapps\common\Across the Obelisk

• In Command Prompt, type “cd”, space, quotes, paste, quotes, e.g.

cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam Games\steamapps\common\Across the Obelisk"

• Press enter. You’re now in the matrix AtO folder!
• Copypaste the following in:

ren dowser.exe dowser.old
mklink dowser.exe AcrossTheObelisk.exe
mklink /j dowser_data AcrossTheObelisk_Data

• Press enter, then close command prompt.

You will need to re-do this every time there is a patch.

If you get a “data folder not found” error, then you may not have done the final step.
