Deank has also stated "Compatibility-wise it is better than "Standard" and "Hermes" " For 3.55/4.21DEX users mM will now supports split-games, better disc-less compatibility and will also allow loading of PS1 backups in BIN+CUE from internal / external. The new payload also allows for some tweaks and there is now a 80% chance games that didn't work disc-less now will.. For all the details of the new payload please check the official Release Quote below for mM v04.20.00 BASE.

multiMAN ver 04.20.00 BASE (20130220) is now available online.

NOTE: It is a BASE version, which means that it can be installed over ANY previous version and is also suitable for first-time users.

Changelog:

* Introducing the new mM payload which makes mM independent and easy to port for various firmwares
* Supports only 3.55 CEX/DEX, 4.21 CEX/DEX, 4.30 CEX, 4.31 CEX
* BD-ROM Emulator option in Settings can be set to "Enable / Disable" - no more "Hermes"/"Standard"
* Compatibility-wise it is better than "Standard" and "Hermes".
* This payload overwrites 252 bytes of strings in LV2 memory (and not 4000 bytes of code like other payloads), it doesn't use syscalls and doesn't rely on firmware functions, executes fast and improves performance

* Added option in settings "Redirect /app_home":
--- Disable (/app_home will not be mounted at all)
--- Enable (/app_home as used in previous versions - points to the game - for disc-less)
--- Toolbox (on Rogero firmwares with pre-installed toolbox if you play from discs only - it allows you to return to stealthMAN without restart)

* For 3.55DEX and 4.21DEX mM now supports split-games, adds better disc-less compatibility and also allows loading of PS1 backups in BIN+CUE format from internal/external.

* IMPROVED DISC-LESS COMPATIBILITY:

The new payload allows for some tweaks and there is 80% chance that games that didn't work disc-less will now work.

Yeah, I got the answer from Deank. Oh well. What version is the last one for 3.41 ? I didnt update yet so give me the latest version for 3.41 so I can go and search for one on the google to update it. I am not ready to update to 4.30 cfw or whatever just yet. I am fine with what I am doing for now.

im on rebug 4.21.2 in dex mode. installed multiman 4.20 whats the path to place my bin cue files in?

PSXISO or PSXGAMES. i recommend PSXISO. You can create folders in there and they'll still show up in the retro column. If you create a cover, you just name it exactly as the bin/iso/img/cdi file. Most of mine show, but there are a few that don't show and idk what causes that.

one issue i'm still having @deank , is that i can't save sometimes. I really can't figure it out. Some games i can play for hours, it's good, i can save a bunch, etc. Sometimes though, i'll even just start up a game and not be able to save and it's not game specific. I really don't think it could be a hard drive issue cause i don't think my hard drive is going to sleep so quickly. The only thing i haven't done is try the games on internal cause i don't exactly have room and like i said, some games i can play for hours with no issues so it's not exactly easy to test.
E.g., i'll play tomba for one to two hours, save often and i'm good. I play it again, maybe an hour in after saving a lot and then all of a sudden it says i have no memory card inserted into slot 1. I mean, i saved a lot so it is only back tracking like ten minutes maybe but games like rpg's and stuff, it can be quite a while til you can save and sometimes it can be a squeaker.

Yeah I knew what you meant by "on the right" the first time. I thought about that but though it'd be the same. But at least I know for next time a big update comes out. I went ahead and used one of the mirrors and downloaded in on my computer.

Do you have that problem with games that have "(Track 1)" attached to them? I have that with GameDay 98 '(Track 1) (Track 2)'. I just named the cover to GameDay 98 (USA) (Track 1) and it shows up for that track. Didn't make one for the second track since I only need to start the first one. Sorry if this isn't what you're talking about but that's the only error I've run into so far in terms of the cover not showing up for the game.

no. if that happens, i usually go for another rip of it so i just get single files.
if you want it to show up for that track, just copy the cover and rename it to the second track. i did that for a game that had two discs and it made the cover show up for the second disc.

like i said, it's minor. most of the covers show up, so it's really no big deal at all.

Thank you, deank! I thought that the version 5.0 would be the next one after version 4.19.7.
Will you release a full version of mM 4.20?
I will test the new payload right away. It looks really awesome!
