Launchpad Downloads/About

Download

By downloading and using the Launchpad IDE, you automatically agree to the Launchpad End User License Agreement (EULA), which is available to view HERE.

Download: Launchpad.1.0r2.zip

Please make sure your graphics drivers are up to date, as well as, you may need to install the DirectX Jun2010 redistributable package, which is contained within a zipped folder in the above download inside the folder "$LaunchpadDir$/DX9redist", find and run the DXSETUP.exe file and follow the prompts.

I recommend you have a scan of the Launchpad Usage thread on how to go about stuff, also the Dear Diary thread for any recent info.

Tested on Win11x64

Syntax highlighting within the main text editing area.

After that, pretty much your usual note pad type affairs.
