New (Ctrl+N): Creates a new document. If there is already an open document which has been modified, you will be prompted to save the open document first, unless File, Auto Save is ticked, in which case the open document is automatically saved. If there is more than one document template, then you will be prompted to select a template using the New dialog.

Open (Ctrl+O) : Opens an existing .q3o document. If there is already an open document which has been modified, you will be prompted to save the open document first, unless File, Auto Save is ticked, in which case the open document is automatically saved.

Save (Ctrl+S) : Saves the currently open document. If the document is untitled (i.e., it has not already been saved), then you will be asked to enter a name for the document, in similar way to the File, Save As command.

Save As: Saves the currently open document to a different file name. You will be asked to enter a new name for the document. If you enter the name for an already existing document, you will be asked if you want to overwrite the existing document.

Auto Load MRU: If ticked, then when Q3Offline starts it will automatically open the Most Recently Used file.

Auto Save: If ticked, then the currently open document will be automatically saved - you will not need to confirm that you want to save the document. Auto Save does not occur for new, untitled documents - you will still be prompted to enter a name for such a document.

Play Sounds: If ticked, Q3Offline will play sounds, such as the welcome message when launching Quake III Arena. Note that Q3Offline pauses momentrarily, whilst sounds are being played.

Reset Registry: If ticked, Q3Offline will reset its registry settings to the default values when you next exit from Q3Offline. This can be useful if for some reason the registry settings are corrupted.

Q3Offline stores its registry settings at the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ShellShock Enterprises\Q3Offline. You can safely deleted this key if necessary; Q3Offline will reset it when it is started.

The settings include:

Exit: Exits from Q3Offline. You will be prompted to save the document if it has been modified, unless File, Auto Save is ticked, in which case the open document is automatically saved.
