I kept trying all these launchers, and they all worked to varying degrees.
With that said, none of them did what I wanted mine to do namely:
PLAY REPLAYS (official beta replays and replays of my AI games) and
START AI GAMES
So I made my own...
A few friends told me I should probably share it with more than just them, so here it is.
-No frills, it does those 2 things simply and well.
-I don't have Vista/Windows 7 so I have no idea if it will work with those.
-If you want more AI's (as they become available) just slap em into the folder and make sure they are named "Base.SC2Data'whatever'". (I use _V4, _V55, etc EX. Base.SC2Data_v4)
-If you want to view one of your AI replays, just check the box and select the AI you used.
All that being said, if you want to use it, you are free to do so. If not, well, you won't be hurting my feelings.
If you wanna see something added, let me know and ill try to work it in.
To install: Just stick the folder somewhere and it will work.
EDIT:
Added support for users who installed the beta in a non-default directory.

Looks nice, but doesn't work, if you have SC2 beta installed in custom folder:

Edit: Fixed it by manually copying the .sc2data files to default directory.
thank you
Another thing, the overwrite AI function doesn't seem to work, the game still loads whichever .sc2data is in the default folder.
Yah it writes them from the current directory into the default folder.
I installed there, as did my friends (whom i originally wrote this for)
ill add in some code to add user directories to an ini or xml something.
Lone I added the code to make the loader use whatever SC2 install folder you used.
So many launchers ahh....
