Parsec Remote Launcher

This utility will launch a remote application and establish a connection with Parsec from a shortcut.

How to use

1. Download the latest version from the Releases section.
2. Modify the included .ini file to meet your needs.
3. Make a shortcut of the exe to your desktop and modify the shortcut to include the remote path of the application you want to launch.
4. On the host computer, launch C:\Program Files\Parsec\parsecd.exe (or C:\Program Files (x86)\Parsec\parsecd.exe on 64-bit) and log into Parsec. Make sure you save your login details.
5. Launch your shortcut and enjoy!

Examples:

"Parsec Remote Launcher.exe" "C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe -applaunch 570" (launches Dota 2)
"Parsec Remote Launcher.exe" "steam://run/570" (also launches Dota 2, but from URI path)

Advanced usage

• The .ini file uses the flags found in the Parsec config documentation.
• Flags set in the .ini file override the host's config.txt.
• Ini sections [Parsec] and [PsExecFlags] must be set and cannot be omitted.
• Ini section [ParsecFlags] can be completely omitted. If not using any flags, remove [ParsecFlags] section header.
• Display resolution is automatically detected and set if you leave those flags omitted. It will always match the client resolution.

Planned features

The ability to override flags in the .ini file from a shortcut. For now, you can create groups by making a copy and renaming both the .exe and .ini files. Both files must have matching names.
