How to rename SwiftKit-RS.exe so it works with xfire

In order for Xfire to see SwiftKit-RS as RuneScape you need to rename SwiftKit-RS.exe to runescape.exe.

 

SwiftKit Setup

To do this you will need to add a setting to the GlobalSettings.ini file.

Go to your SwiftKit installation folder. By default this is C:\Program Files\SwiftKit

1. Open the Data folder and double click(or open in notepad) on GlobalSettings.ini.
2. Under [Startup Options] add; RS_Exe_Name=runescape

So the end result should look something like this;

[Startup Options]
Host=UK 2
RS_Exe_Name=runescape

Save and close GlobalSettings.ini You can now go ahead and right click 'rename' your SwiftKit-RS.exe file to runescape.exe
