This manual is intended for people that do not have plenty of time waiting in Lost Ark queue before able to play. Don't get me wrong - this won't skip the queue but automate the process for your convenience. By following the instructions you will
- Setup your BIOS to autostart your PC at a specific time
- Autostart Lost Ark
- Send Enter-Key stroke to Lost Ark Window to enter the queue
In order to make this work it is expected that you don't have to enter any passwords during boot sequence like BIOS password or windows login password. It is also expected that your steam account logs in automatically as soon as steam starts.
So basically you set an alarm in your BIOS to boot your PC - E. g. when your done with your working day. You can google on how to do it, I found this page useful https://www.gearbest.com/blog/how-to/how-to-automatically-turn-on-the-computer-on-a-schedule-3794
- In your steam library, right click on Lost Ark to open the context menu
- Navigate to 'Manage' and select 'Add Desktop Shortcut'
- Press Windows-Key + R on your keyboard to open the run dialog
- Enter 'shell:startup' and confirm with OK to open up the auto start folder of windows
- Move the Lost Ark shortcut icon from your desktop into this folder
- Download this powershell-script and save it somewhere on your disk
- Press Windows-Key + R to open the run dialog
- Enter 'gpedit.msc' to open up the group policy editor
- Navigate to user settings > windows settings > Scripts > Logon
- Add the powershell as shown here, make sure tab PowerShell-Scripts is selected
- Accept the changes and close the group policy editor
Every time you log in into your windows account this will run the script automatically. It sends a Enter-Key stroke to the lost ark window. This will start the login process (queue) to the most recent server you have been connected with. Make sure you are in front of you PC when queue is done to prevent automatic logout.
