UMDGen v3.02
============
Bugfix release. 
 Drag and drop error fixed.  A dropped item would not always be added
  to the correct folder and instead be added to the parent folder.
 Renaming Label error fixed.  Sometimes after renaming the volume
  label the ISO would be rebuilt incorrectly.

UMDGen v3.01
============
A couple of bugs have been addressed in this release:
 Extracting from vcdromx images now extract from the correct location.
 Drag and drop error fixed (in v3.00.1)

UMDGen v3.00
============
UMDGen has come a long way since it's first initial release. V3.00 is no 
exception with a host of major changes!

New features/updates:
 GUI Re-designed. Toolbar added, menus improved. Displays the ISO icon
  and more detailed PARAM.SFO information.
 
 Ability to rename files and folders.

 Duplicate file/folder checking. When an item is added, UMDGen will ask
  if you wish to replace the file/folder contents if the items already
  exist in the compilation - this is the new way to update files, simply
  add them to the compilation and select yes when asked if you want to 
  replace them.

 Hide files/folders. This option was added because it may be needed
  sometime in the future (PS2 protection included hidden files in ISO's)
  until then - you can always hide your porn with it :-p
  Once a file/folder is hidden you can 'un-hide' it by right-clicking the
  item in LBA VIEWPORT and select 'Un-Hide' from the menu.  This is only
  available while the compilation is still open - once you have saved
  as an ISO and closed the compilation the files will be completely
  hidden.

 Accelerator keys added (Keyboard Shortcuts).

 ADD EXISTING FOLDER routine has been re-written.  Hopefully users who
  were having problems adding folders in previous versions will now be
  able to do so without difficulty.  You can even add items directly from
  mounted images now.

 Launch files. You can double-click a file in UMDGen for it to automatically
  open in whatever associated application is on your system. Example, 
  double-clicking 'PIC1.PNG' will open that file in your default PNG viewing
  program.

 File relinking routines have been updated. Some users reported previous
  versions were a bit buggy so this has been fixed.

 Improved the code for moving files in LBA VIEWPORT. Users can now drag
  and drop all selected files instead of having to do them individually.

 PPF Patcher.  You can apply a ppf directly to an ISO or any individual
  file in the compilation.

 Dummy File Search. This feature will scan the open ISO for dummy data
  files and, if found, automatically resize them to 0 bytes.

 Sector Viewer. View files or the ISO in Hex Format. Using the button on the
  toolbar will view Sector 0 as default, right-clicking on a file and selecting
  sector view will display the file location sector.

 Padding is now default to none, users have the option to modify the padding
  values from 0 to UMD default or enter a custom amount of LBAs between files.

 Debug Console.  This is available to help with any problems users may have.
  It gives a general output wich can be examined by us to help fix the problem.

 Optional Path Tables. Part of the ISO header but not generally used.  Can be
  disabled if required.

 DAX ISO support. Open and edit DAX ISO images the same as any uncompressed 
  image. 
  Uncompress Dax images: there are 2 ways of doing this, open the DAX iso and 
  then either select 'save as' from the menu or press the 'uncompress DAX ISo'
  button from the toolbar.  The first way constructs a new iso which would
  include any changes you make in the compilation.  The second way is just a
  direct uncompression of the original iso.

HISTORY
==============================================================================

UMDGen v2.01
============

Updates:

Recoded the way UMDGen stores file information - because of this recode UMDGen 
can hold file information of up to 100,000 files. Because of different 
memory/general PC configurations of our users, we have decided to include an 
ini file which stores the maximum allowed number of files to be loaded.  Users 
can change this value to their own requirements.  Opening an ISO with thousands 
of files will cause UMDGen to run more slowly as it has to process each file 
and folder.

Bug fixes:

A few minor bugs were fixed in this release.

UMDGen v2.00
============
UMDGen has undergone a complete re-write and has some MAJOR new features added!

Please be aware of the following:

An ISO opened in UMDGen may not show the correct LBA values of the original ISO
 - it shows the LBA positions of the proposed new ISO.  When you open an ISO and 
Save As (even without changes) the ISO size could increase/decrease.  This is 
becuase UMDGen uses (by default) the correct sector alignment for UMD Discs.  
This can be switched off in the 'Padding' menu item.

Right-clicking and selecting 'Extract All' from the left hand window (Dir Structure view)
will extract the ENTIRE contents of the iso, regardless of which sub-folder you chose.  If 
you want to extract a sub-folder and/or files, select them in the right hand view 
(Files and Folders View) and select 'Extract Selected'

+ Open existing PSP images (including VCDROMx images)
   UMDGen v2.00 will automatically re-calculate LBA positions to UMD standard positions
   and remove excess padding Example... Infected ISO size is 562MB, when opened in UMDGen
   ISO size is 538MB.
+ Edit existing PSP images
   Delete folders/files, relink files, update/replace files, Add new files/folders, move
   file LBA positions.
+ Extract ISOs
   Extract the entire ISO or select Files/Folders to extract.
+ Create IML/IMS Files From Existing ISOs and New ISOs
   Usefull for RipKits.
+ Automatically converts VCDROMx images to correct UMD Format when saved.
+ Uses UMD-compliant padding for files (can be switched on/off)
+ Firmware version detector.
   Displays required firmaware version for game to run.

Added the ability to change Date and Time of ISO creation
Added the convenience to delete folders from the Folder Tree.
Re-structured the way UMDGen stores file/folder information in memory 
  - result is better success rate with rebuilt ISO's.

Other minor code modification for overall smoother running.

UMDGen v1.00
============
Create "Universal Media Disc" compliant ISO images.

Tool notes:
On launch ISO size starts at 0.04MB - this is size of the UMD Header.
In Volume View all field entries are locked with CAPS - this is the
UMD TOC Standard. Any/All of these fields can be left blank.  If the
'Volume Label' remains blank the default UMD Standard label will be
used ('NA').

Importing a filelist will automatically sort all files in their correct
order - this does not include correcting the lba positions. Retail
UMD disks use extra padding between files which isn't needed for ISO
images not destined for UMD Discs.  In Directory View, the Delete key
on your computer will remove selected files from the UMD compilation.

In Layout View you have the capability of moving any file to a different
LBA location, *Please note - Using the 'Move To..' option (right-click
on a file) you can only move the LBA position to a higher value than 
it's original location - use the drag and drop method to move files to 
a lower LBA position.

Export IML/IMS file - Any of the current free IML2ISO utils will work
to rebuild the ISO.  UMD Gen does not export the full path of files - 
only the 'virtual path' so the IML/IMS file should be used in the root 
folder of the game when rebuilding.
