Version 1.4 - 2021-09-17

Added

  • Downloader support. Main cores, JT cores, LLAPI cores, and Unofficial cores can be installed now using the new MiSTer Downloader. New users or old users of Update All without custom setups (non-default options at update.ini, update_unofficials.ini, update_llapi.ini or update_jtcores.ini, except DOWNLOAD_BETA_CORES which doesn't count) will have it activated by default. Old users with custom setups may activate it through the Misc menu, like shown in this video. Keep in mind though, that your custom options will not be considered by the new Downloader, and everything will be installed at /media/fat by now.
  • Arcade Organizer 2.0. Arcade Organizer changelog is here. The Settings Screen offers a new Arcade Organizer menu that allows you to change many of the new options from the 2.0 version.
  • Arcade Offset. Patched MRA files maintained by Atrac17. Check its repository for more info.
  • KEEP_USBMOUNT_CONF option at update_all.ini. When set to true, it will keep the /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf file between Linux updates.
