  Hi

   What is the best way to start a game on WGT ?

  What im looking for is lowest memory usage at startup .

  Right now i open google chrome , then open WGT page , then click on PLAY NOW .

  then play .

   

  Is there a more direct way to open the popup game screen ?

  .

  Create a desktop icon to load the game-client. This will ensure the game-client is the only window open when you play the game.

  Im not sure how to do this , i can for a .EXE , but WGT is through a browser .

  Any help ?

   

  Also i have Game Booster , so is there a way to launch WGT from within GB ?

  I cant find a way .

  Not that I'm aware of.

  To create a desktop icon for the WGT game-client, follow these instructions.

  First, open the game-client by clicking on the "play now" button. Then copy the game-clients URL from the address bar at the top of the page.

  Second, go to your desktop and right click anywhere on your desktop. Click "New" > "Shortcut" > then paste the copied URL from the game-client page in the provided box. Third, name your shortcut icon. I named mine "WGT game-client" > click "Finish". That's all there is to it.
