This is a feature release.

Added:

Automatic metadata scraping - if BleemSync detects no Game.ini is present for a game, it will attempt to download the information and game cover from BleemSync Central - a hosted database specifically tailored for BleemSync
2 player controller support - Thanks mtrivs!
BleemSync will now run on boot. This feature can be disabled by deleting the System/BleemSync folder.
note: syncing will only check for Game.ini on boot as there is no internet connectivity on the system
System/Defaults/pcsx.cfg has been added for allowing a default configuration of PCSX. This will be automatically copied into each game on boot.
Some features in this build may be experimental. Please review the README before seeking out support or submitting an issue.

This is a maintenance release. A bug in the serial number detection from game images may have caused games to not be detected properly.

To update, remove the root BleemSync folder and replace it with the one in the ZIP archive.

Please use this spreadsheet for keeping track of any missing games from BleemSync Central.

Important notes
Due to a bug not discovered before release, if you have edited settings through the BleemSync UI, the bootloader payload may not update. If you did not see the payload update and the bleemsync/flags/UPDATE file is still present on your drive, please add the following to the config file bleemsync/etc/bleemsync/CFG/bleemsync_cfg.INI:
[not_recommended]
usb_only="0"
If you are updating on a Mac, make sure to select Merge when you are overwriting files on your USB drive. Otherwise, you may delete your games database and configurations. Making a backup prior to upgrading is recommended.
