I have posted Xenon 2000 to the database.

MegaMek needs the Java runtime, so I won't be posting it to the database.

Star Control 2 writes settings to C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\uqm\uqm.cfg even when using "-C .".

I'm sorry for the ancient bump here, but I'm currently using UQM on a flash drive with the command switch:

Code:

--configdir=.\profile

It seems to behave itself. Great game to have in the db, IMO.
