Simple Quake Launcher - Launch Maps Easily!

[Hipnotic Rogue]

In the hope that due to Quake's 20th birthday there will be an influx of new players or older ones returning home I thought I'd post a thread linking to Simple Quake Launcher.

It's easy to setup, doesn't require any fancy installations and makes accessing a lot of Quake content really simple. Here's the link:

For those familiar with ZDL for Doom it's pretty much the same thing but for Quake.

Perhaps some could sticky this thread so that newcomers can see it?

Of course there's also Quake Injector but that not as stable as a simple launcher and is probably the topic for another thread.

I think you are recommending that only because you didn't know the console commands.

Is it easier to type "-game warpspasm -quoth" or "-game dopa" in a launcher than it is to type "game warpspasm -quoth" or "game dopa" in the Quakespasm console?

If you see what I am saying.

You can do the same thing in DarkPlaces.

Type "gamedir dopa" in the console. DarkPlaces even has a mods menu.

Also in Quakespasm, type "games" in the console and it should list the game folders, if I am remembering the command right.

There is nothing wrong with liking a launcher. I just suspect you might not know these commands, because most people that recommend a launcher in the past don't know about those commands.
