After a long delay, we're finally releasing Software Release 15. We've been extremely busy working on and testing our new revisions of the Crystal Chips hardware and making every effort to maintain backward compatability so that we can continue to support our CC1.0 users. Details on our new revisions will be available in the coming weeks.

We've added some preliminary protections to the BootManager software to discourage users of other chips from using our software. If you are not a Crystal Chips customer, DO NOT USE THIS SOFTWARE. Attempting to modify the BootManager executable could cause permanent damage to your PS2 and/or accessories so please don't try to "crack" the software.

Here are some features of the new BM v1.6:
- DVD+R Double Layer support
- Media Type Detection scripts allow you to associate homebrew applications with specific discs based on the disc contents.
- Completely rewritten PBAT script interpreter.
- Highly improved disc authentication system.
- Miscellaneous changes to how the disc and homebrew launching works.

Please see the readme.txt in the upgrade package for more information.

And finally, we'll be rolling out our new multi-language site soon for our non-english speaking customers.

Now that our new hardware revisions are nearly through final testing we expect our firmware releases to become more frequent once again. As always, thank you to all of our users.
