Retro-Gaming: WHDLoad 18.1
Using WHDLoad you can install games, scene demos and intros from cracking groups on your harddisk that were not compatible with anything but floppy disks. In version 18.1 an update check was added:
  • New: update check added: when a network connection is available WHDLoad will check via a HTTP request if a newer version exists on the WHDLoad webpage for the used Slave and WHDLoad, supports a proxy with optional basic authentication via option Proxy/K, to disable any network access the option NoNetwork/S can be used uses sha256 implementation by Robert Leffmann, thanks!
  • Changed: dumping loaded files using bit #31 set in the disk number via resload_DiskLoad will now use the offset in ExpMem in the created file name, also the written files will go through the file cache to avoid recurring switches to the operating system
