Space Quest Alternative Launcher

[Tharon]

Hello.
I've coded a new launcher for the Space Quest collection. It resemple the old one but is written from scratch.

The features are :

- Graphic boxart for every game in the collection.
- Launch Space Quest AND Space Quest VGA.
- Choose from global dosbox settings, official (the ones shipped with the collection) or custom dosbox settings editable for each game.


Here is the download link :

And this is the virus scan information from Jotty :

Just download the zip, extract it in the main folder of the game and just launch the game from steam as usual.


And if you want an extra feature to be added just drop me a message here :)

"too much traffic"
can you pls upload to another site?

[Tharon]

Yeah, dropbox is lying about the traffic, and have blocked the sharing. I try on Google Drive.

[Tharon]

Ok, i've upload the file on google drive.

the Edit Configuration buttons don´t work. I clicked all of them and they do nothing

[Tharon]

The edit button launch the application associated with the .conf extension. If you don't have any application associated with it, it doesn't work.

If you don't have a .conf editor you can simply associate the .conf extension with notepad.exe from windows, just double click on one of the may .conf files and choose to open it with notepad.

I can add an option to do this automatically if you want, i didn't thinked it was necessary since every dosbox user have it already associated with notepad or some other text editor.

I created a .conf file association with Notepad++, now its working
Thanks!

Hello! The launcher is great! However, would it be at all possible for there to be a "Fixed" Version of Space Quest 6? It constantly crashes at the Sick Bay, most google searches show some "Error 47" thing, Maybe have an option in the Launcher to fix this error? Thanks

[Tharon]

Unfortunately that's an issue of the game, there is nothing a launcher can do. Try using this workaround :
