How to play on Ripple (Windows Shortcut)

Create a shortcut of your osu!.exe:
- If you already have an osu! shortcut on your desktop, create a copy of it and rename it to “Ripple”
- If you don’t have one:
  - Find osu! in your start menu and click “Open file location”
  - Right click osu! in the file explorer and select Open file location
  - Hold Alt and drag osu! on your desktop
  - Click “Create shortcut here”
Right click on the newly created shortcut and choose “Properties”
Add a space and -devserver ripple.moe at the very end of the “Target” field
Open the “Ripple” shortcut and enter your credentials to log in to Ripple

How to play on Ripple (Steam Shortcut)

Right click on osu! on Steam and select Properties

How to play on Ripple (Linux)

Open the script you use to launch osu
Add "$@" after osu!.exe if it’s not already present. So if it looks like this:
```
wine osu\!.exe
```
It will become
```
wine osu\!.exe "$@"
```
Then, add -devserver ripple.moe when you launch the script. So if you launch osu! with:
```
./osu.sh
```
You can launch ripple with
```
./osu.sh -devserver ripple.moe
```

If you only play on ripple, you can also replace "$@" with -devserver ripple.moe so you don’t have to type the server address each time

How to play on official osu! again

You can simply launch the appropriate shortcut to launch either osu! or ripple.

Please note that, for security reasons, the client will log you out each time you switch servers.
