====================
PLOADER - HISTORII
====================

postLoader 3.44.3

* Corrected icon layout for homebrews
* Corrected possible crash when drawing themes (for example with dimension theme)
* Corrected some little graphic problems with themes
* n2oswitch now support any priiloader version and change only needed options (autoboot and ReturnTo) leaving all the other option with they original values
* postLoader can now switch to any neek2o nand ([HOME] -> Options... ->Change current neek2o nand")
* postLoader now keep a channels cache file separated for any nand
* added neek2o availability and current nand folder on screen
* appbrowser can now manage up to 256 different homebrews.

NOTES:
postloader support automatically 4 different nands. nands can be selected for any game. Press (B) on the game cover

/nands/pl_eu for euro pal nand
/nands/pl_us for usa nand
/nands/pl_jp for japan nand
/nands/pl_kr for korean nand

IMPORTANT: priiloader must be present on the nand. There is non need to configure it.

If the region if different from default, postloader install as "installed file" in priiloader on the selected nand n2oswitch.dol that will run the disc, and on return to menu (or power off/on) will restore old settings.
Even if the four roms can be used for any porpouse, I suggest to leave them light, without any additional channel to keep high switching speed
