To add parameters to the command line in the Age of Empires II shortcut
1. Right-click the Age of Empires II shortcut, click Properties, and then
click Shortcut.
2. In the Target box, type the name of the parameter after the existing
command line text. For example, if you add the parameters NoStartup and
NoTerrainSound, the command line will read "C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Games\Age of Empires\Empires2.exe" Nostartup Noterrainsound. Parameters must
be separated by a space; capitalization is not important.
