Within the game folder right click in a blank space to bring up the menu and then highlight "new" then select "text document" this will ceate a new text file you can name as you wish.

Load the new text document and then type the following command adjusting the drive/file path to suit:

Start C:\DEMULSHOOTER DIRECTORY\DemulShooter.exe -target=windows -rom=friction

Start C:\FRICTION GAME DIRECTORY\Friction.exe

Then simply go to "File" then "Save As", Give the file a name of your choosing but it MUST end with .bat

Eg gamename.bat

Remove Crosshairs

To remove crosshairs navigate to the games main directory and open the reshade-shaders folder.

Open Textures Folder.

Rename the 2 crosshair files inside this folder, You can just put old after the file name.

E.g. cursor1_old

To Enable Gore

Inside the folder you will find a gore and no_gore folder.

Change the no-gore folder name to somthing different, You can just put original infront if you like so you know what it was originally e.g. change the name to original_no_gore.

Change the gore folder name to no_gore.
