Things were working for me following the XML edit, but this evening, the login changed.
Since the XML change, clicking the Game Icon took me straight to the Game.
But it changed this evening, and an Origin Screen appeared, and said it needs to upgrade. It gave me three choices:
⚽ Keep Origin Up to Date.
🏈 Upgrade Only and Play Online.
🏀 Don't Upgrade and Run Offline.
Obviously, I went for 🏀, and then it asked me for my Origin Login.
I gave it my usual Origin details, and I was allowed to get to the Game.
However, this is not a good sign. It suggests more changes will be made.
I do not want any App or Login Upgrades, I just want to play the Game with as little heard from Origin or EA as possible, preferably just the once when I first install!
I suspect this will stop working soon, but I am still OK, so far. I will look at some of the suggestions if it falls over again.
It's as if EA is desperate to find new ways to stop me playing the Game that I have paid for.
EA/ORIGIN...
Put that APP where the Sun never beats!!!
Let us play with "good old Origin" in peace!
Take care of the cheaters, rather than breaking the "games" of us honest users !!!!!
