In this video, we will take a look at using .bat files to start our TouchDesigner projects. You will learn how to set up a .bat file, how to pass variables from the .bat file to TouchDesigner to customize startup options, and more!
I use this technique all the time in my installations, ensuring that TouchDesigner (and any other necessary programs, processes, etc) are all launched precisely as needed. It is way simpler than it may seem, so I hope this helps you too!
Project file contains both .bat files, TD project and /dat folder with python extension: / best-practices-100653539
