The maxinactive setting doesn't affect your play at all, so there's no reason to not use it all the time. The maxfps setting isn't like that though since it throttles your maximum fps, as the name implies(duh). If I run two instances, I tend to put maxfps 25 on both though anyway, since I've had the second instance black out on me a few times when I didn't. My fps never actually even gets higher than 25 anyway though...

Anyway, I'd rather just have it all on all the time instead of having to type it in every time I start the game.

Think this should explain it well...

Pro Tip: New and Quick Start-up Desktop Icons

1. After your clients (Live, Test, and Beta) are set up, open the NCSoft Launcher. Click on File (top drop down menu) > In General Tab, click on "After launching game:" drop down > chose "Exit Launcher" > OK.

2. Right click on a client (e.g. CITY OF HEROES TEST) > on the pop up menu, chose "Create Desktop Shortcut"

3. Close the NCSoft Launcher. Find new Desktop Shortcut and double click it. The NCSoft Launcher will open briefly, start the client, then exit. From here on out, all you need is that one double-click to start the game.


Pro Tip: Customizing Start-up Desktop Icons and Skins

If you use several clients (Live, Test, and Beta), you may want to customize the Desktop Shortcuts and the start-up 'skin' so you get visual cues as to which client you're starting and which server you're entering. I use all three servers and clients. I gave the Live client the Hero icon and skin, the Test client the Villain icon and skin, and the Beta client the GR Gold icon and skin.

1. Open the NCSoft Launcher. For each client, right click and on the pop up menu, chose "Properties."

2. In the Properties window, you can add many of the old command line tags you use to with the shortcut to the old launcher. For the blue Hero skin, leave it blank or use -uiskin 0. For the red Villain skin, use -cov or -uiskin 1. For the gold GR skin, use -uiskin 2. Hit the OK button when done.

3. For each Desktop Shortcut Icon, you can customize which icon to show. Right click on the shortcut and in the pop up menu, chose Properties. In the main or shortcut tab, look for the "Change Icon" button and click it. If you get an error message or only one icon to chose from, click the Browse button and navigate to the cityofheroes.exe file in your main City of Heroes directory. You should now see a choice of five icons to use. Chose the one you want for each client's/server's shortcut.
