News of VMU Tool 0.8.5:

the new version was almost ready to be released when I discovered another bug from the previous version. So I decided to take some more time to fix this bug, this shouldn't take too long hopefully.

Here is the list of improvements from VMU Tool v0.8.0 so far:
- fixed bug of VMU files' compression
- fixed bug of VMU last formatted a sunday
- added a "defragment" option in the "Open VMU" menu
- implemented PSO screenshots reading in image viewer
- implemented GD-ROM reading support
- fixed weird display for some images in the image viewer
- increased text viewer's capacity to read files of 500KB max and changed words limit to 200000
- rewrote the "rename" function so it more works as expected (insert chars with keyboard and pad)
- implemented BMP images reading
- fixed the possible buffer's overflow when loading a bad DK/DP embeded file
- changed the default name of files extracted from a VMU dump
- added options to change the menus' background color and opacity
- implemented themes support
- allowed GUI files to be loaded from PC
- added options "rename" and "delete" for files loaded from PC
- made options saving to VMU optional
- allowed options changes to be saved without saving to VMU
- added saving/loading of options from PC
- changed options loading/saving code so it checks every other VMUs after reading/writing error
- added texts shadows
- implemented pre-loaded files list
- modified VMU emulator's texts and default size
- replaced keyboard keys by pad buttons combo for "mirror", "rotate" and "flip" functions of the image viewer

VMU Tool 0.8.5 should be released in 3 versions, each one with its own default theme:

PSO theme, Love Hina theme,Shenmue 2 theme
The theme only sets default wallpaper and colors, you're free to change them anytime as you wish.

Apart from allowing to backup VMU files to PC and vice versa, or save them from CD/PC to VMU, VMU Tool has some functionnalities that are not well known. Here are some misc screenshots that demonstrate some of them:

The image viewer supports BMP, PNG, JPEG images and PVR textures

The text viewer displays text files by respecting alineas and tabs

The audio player loads some Ogg Vorbis, MP3 and Wave musics with a timer displayed in real time

Note : The proggy isn't released yet !
