The above screenshot shows a "Unique" profile I created for Quake3 via the "add" button, which pops up a file browser where you select the game app location. Then you can select specific performance/quality options that will be used automatically when that game is run.
The above screen shows some of the standard profile options you can select either as-is (with their default settings) or create your own "unique" profile with the game-specific settings you prefer.
The next section has a list of known issues with some specific games that's included in the ATI Displays readme.

|
Application cannot be selected from file dialog. Mac OS' file dialog does not see the Spyhunter file as an application |
Changing the game file's Application type to "APPL" will allow file dialogs to identify it as a valid application. From a terminal: "SetFile -t APPL filename.app" - requires DevTools be installed or Resorcerer may be used instead. |
