Someone know how to use tank console? Tried commom commands and seems don't work. Also there's profiler key combination, i cannot find it.

would like to know more about it

anyone able to boot into a map with the parameters? been trying bunch of combos but it always tells me cannot locate resources

Has anyone figured out how to auto-login? I want to directly launch overwatch but still have it autologin with the battle net creds.

@github59173 You can set account data (returned from BNet service) in registy, overwatch read registry as well once it starts.

@RickyOcarina2000 maybe you've set wrong map ID.

@nathan130200 could you elaborate on setting account data in registry? What would that look like?

@greamy BNet launcher get auth data from API and set in windows registry these values. When overwatch starts it read windows registry with pre-cached auth data and automatically enter in the lobby server.
