As everyone know Linux version of CK2 was released 14.01.2013.
I really happy to get native version of the game, but there were no official launcher, so I decided to create my own.
Before I'm never work on any desktop application, so it's was a nice plan to try new stuff: C++ with Qt4.
Repeat: zero experience and only day to make working prototype.
I'm did good work on UI file and style, but if you are experienced programmer my code could be dangerous for your eyes and brain.

Yeah, I've seen python launcher thread, so I named this one as Qt CK2 Launcher.
drFlK's launcher have much better code, but my have nice UI and DLC list/disable functionality.
Right now this launcher is Linux-only too, but I have some great ideas about launcher functionality.
There is tons of functions which I probably add If will play less.
