GameLaunch 3D v1.0 Released

GameLaunch 3D is a front-end utility that allows you to set up and save multiple game configurations with a drag-and-drop interface.

GameLaunch 3D v1.0 Released is the story on November 11, 1998, and it is one of those late-1998 PC gaming updates that says exactly where the scene is right now. GameLaunch 3D is a front-end utility that allows you to set up and save multiple game configurations with a drag-and-drop interface. So you can have a custom CTF config and a custom Action Quake config all ready to go.

It also optimizes your 3D hardware for speed or beauty with a single click. The new GameLaunch has Heretic II and Sin support, as well as Quake, QuakeWorld, and Hexen II. It also works with GameSpy 3D to launch the game on a server of your choice. If you have been waiting to try it, patch it, or finally see it on a shelf, this is your nudge.
