How do I start a Modification?

[Grim Warlock]

Hello, I've attempt to start a (Quake 1) Modification - Threewave - by creating a shortcut to the WinQuake executable with the code

+game 3wavectf

, it doesn't seem to work. Does anyone know the right code I should use? Thanks!

you need "-" instead of "+"

quake.exe -game 3wavectf

Lol, silly of me; forgot that. Thanks!
