QMLauncher

Improved the appearance of color labels.
Fixed an issue with high launcher CPU load when unpacking archives.
Added the ability to toggle the mod/map search mode in the search window using the left/right arrow keys.
Added the ability to skip intro videos in Quake 2021 Remastered.
Added a progress bar for music playing in the launcher.
Added the ability to set default and mod cover in the main window by dragging and dropping from Windows Explorer.

Several minor fixes and optimizations

Installation: simply replace previous versions of files with new ones from the archive.
Fixed the creation of a list of installed archives (sometimes the list was created incorrectly).
Added digital signature for launcher files.

Installation: Just replace the exe files of the previous version with the files of new version.
Small fix. The splash screen was not shown when launching the launcher. The launcher version remains the same 1.9.6.
Added the ability to delete the mod folder when deleting a mod from the list (can be enabled in the settings).
Added centering of the selected mod in the list when launching the launcher, after autosorting, after launching the launcher from QuaddicnedTool.
Improved interaction with QuaddictedTool v2.2+. If the archive is not installed in QMLauncher, then after launching the launcher from QuaddictedTool, the archive installation will begin. If the archive is installed, then after launching the launcher from QuaddictedTool, the mod will be selected in the list and ready to run.

If you use QMLauncher together with QuaddictedTool, then update it to version 2.2+.

Installation: Just replace the exe files of the previous version with the files of new version.
Improved window centering after launching the launcher, taking into account the position and size of the taskbar (can be enabled in the settings) and the state of the window (normal/fullscreen mode).

Added the ability to sort the list of engines in the add engines window.

Added the ability to show the splash screen when launching the launcher. To do this, select an image in PNG format in the settings (necessarily with transparency, if the image without transparent, the splash screen will not be displayed!) and activate the splash screen display. You can also change the splash screen display time in milliseconds. By default, 3000 ms.

The archive with the utility contains a folder with several spash screen . Try using them.

Now installed archives are checked not only by archive name but also by SHA256. That is, if you renamed the archive and try to install it, you will see a warning that the archive is installed. This will only work with newly installed archives. Archives that were installed earlier will be checked by archive name.

Improved interaction with the QuaddictedTool utility. Now if you click the 'Install archive' button in QuaddictedTool, the installation will start automatically (if QMLauncher is currently running). I recommend updating QuaddictedTool to version 2.0+. But this feature will also work in the old version of the utility.

Now it shows the number of mods in the list in the window header.

Added the ability to enable auto-sorting of the mod list by alphabet, as well as auto-saving of all changes in the launcher (enabled in the settings).

Added the ability to save mod covers in RAM. (useful if QMLaucher is launched from a flash drive or an old, slow disk. Covers are loaded from memory, not from the disk). You can enable it in the settings.

Optimization of the utility for minimal access to the disk for reading / writing data.

Many small fixes.

When deleting a mod from the main window - now the mod is deleted only from the mod list. You can delete a mod folder in the add mod window (select the folder in the list and press the right mouse button).

In the mod installation window from the archive, you can now double-click to open files. For example, to read the readme or view images.

Fixed errors when launching a random mod / map.
