# Create Steam Shortcut
If you were to launch P4G now, Reloaded II would not launch and your mods would not be injected into the game. We need to create a shortcut to launch Reloaded II and have it load the game for us.
{% hint style="success" %}
Don't worry—Steam will continue tracking your play time, achievements, and cloud saves.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
Some controllers may not work if P4G is launched from a Steam shortcut.\
If this happens, you will need to launch P4G from the Reloaded II application.
{% endhint %}
## Add Reloaded II to Steam
### Open Steam Window
* Open **Steam** and go to your game **Library**.
* At the top of the window, select **Games** > **Add a Non-Steam Game to My Library...**
### Add Executable Path
* In the **Add Non-Steam Game** window that appears, select **Browse...** to open a file picker window.
* Navigate to **Reloaded-II.exe** in your **P4G-Mods\\\_Reloaded-II** folder.
* Select **Reloaded-II.exe**, then click **Open** in the bottom-right corner.
{% hint style="warning" %}
Make sure to select **Reloaded-II.exe** and not **Reloaded-II32.exe**.
{% endhint %}
A program called **Reloaded-II** should now be in the **Add Non-Steam Game** menu with a check next to it.
* If you can't see **Reloaded-II** in the menu, scroll down until you do.
* Click the box next to Reloaded-II to check it if it is not checked.
* Once you've confirmed **Reloaded-II** is present and checked, select **Add Selected Programs**.
You will now have a new shortcut in Steam for Reloaded II:
## Configure Shortcut Properties
We don't just want this shortcut to launch Reloaded II, we want it to run P4G with our mods!
* Right-click **Reloaded-II** in your Steam library and select **Properties…**
### Customize Shortcut
* In the **Shortcut** tab, rename **Reloaded-II.exe** to **Persona 4 Golden (Reloaded)**.
* Click the empty square next to the shortcut name to open the **Choose Icon** file picker.
* Navigate to your **P4G-Mods\Artwork** folder and select **icon.png**.
### Adjust Launch Options
This will make Reloaded II launch P4G instead of just launching itself.
{% hint style="info" %}
You'll need to know your path to **P4G.exe** for this step.
If you don't remember your path, follow the steps in [**Locate P4G.exe**](https://p4g.cep.one/install/pages/-MfMIn7IJjCzuT-uAp-9#locate-p4g.exe) again.
{% endhint %}
* In the **Launch Options** box, enter the following text, using your own path to **P4G.exe**:
```
--launch "X:\YOUR\OWN\PATH\TO\steamapps\common\Persona 4 Golden\P4G.exe"
```
{% hint style="warning" %}
Make sure to keep the quotation marks on both sides of the path!
{% endhint %}
## Add Artwork to Shortcut
We've prepared some custom artwork for your **Persona 4 Golden (Reloaded)** shortcut, so you won't confuse it with the vanilla P4G entry in your library.
* Close the **Properties** window for Persona 4 Golden.
* Make sure you have a **Recent Games** shelf in your Steam library.
* If you don't, use the dropdown or add a new shelf for **Recent Games**.
### Apply Header Artwork
* Launch and immediately close **Persona 4 Golden (Relodaed)** in your Steam library.
This will expand the game's **header** art on the **Recent Games** shelf and move it all the way to the left.
* Right-click the header and select **Manage > Set custom artwork** to open a file picker.
* In the file picker, navigate to your **P4G-Mods\Artwork** folder and select **header.jpg**.
Your header should immediately update.
### Apply Poster Artwork
* Launch any game other than **Persona 4 Golden (Reloaded)** in your Steam library.
This will collapse the game into its **poster** art (or lack thereof).
* Right-click the poster and select **Manage > Set custom artwork** to open a file picker.
* In the file picker, navigate to your **P4G-Mods\Artwork** folder and select **poster.jpg**.
Your poster should immediately update.
### Apply Hero Artwork
* Click on **Persona 4 Golden (Reloaded)** in your Steam library to open its details page.
* Right-click the empty hero at the top and select **Set Custom Background** to open a file picker.
* In the file picker, navigate to your **P4G-Mods\Artwork** folder and select **hero.jpg**.
Your hero should immediately update.
### Apply Logo Artwork
* Right-click the hero again and select **Set Custom Logo** to open a file picker.
* In the file picker, navigate to your **P4G-Mods\Artwork** folder and select **logo.png**.
Your logo should immediately update.
