Sorry for the delay everyone, this release took a bit longer because we added some new features and it took some time to port it all to the newest release.

New Features

+ Run From CD (Run any DreamCast game without the need of running the Bios first!)

+ Run From Bios Only (Select to Run just the Bios!)

+ Updated Game Buster (Updated with more than 320 games added with cheats!)

+ Task Priority (It is a Priority Setter stronger than the original one that can allow you to change it to anything you want!)

+ New Link to Chinese Support Forums (For Chankast Utilities in the Help Menu!)

Updated Features

+ Added WARNING Message for Speed Pig (Requested by the people)

+ Updated Cheat Assistant Finder (Makesure you download the fixed version due to a small bug in the one we released with the Utilities right before)

Still in the Process

+ DualShock Everywhere

+ Run from ISO

Also maksure you update the Cheat Assistant Finder with the *fixed* version as we stated above due to a bug we just found about 10 minutes ago. Just replace the current file which is now included in Chankast Utilities with the new *fixed* one.

This is more of a bug fix release, get it at the link below.

Bugs fixed:

- vga/ntsc bug fixed

- control pad fixed

- Fixed a bug in the video renderer that was causing some game to crash

Notes:

If a game doesn't work, try old_gfx, it's less accurate, but faster.

Echelon intros cause some games not working and read the manual in the help tab.
