* fixed & improved emulation of PRG-RAM write protection register ("Lunar Eternal Blue" japanese version freeze)
* improved SUB & MAIN-CPU synchronization ("Dracula Unleashed" freeze when using US Model 2 BIOS)
* improved CPU polling detection
* improved CDD emulation & added CD drive access time for SEEK command ("Panic!/Switch" intro missing scene)

wit v2.21b r4492 - 2013-06-15
- Bug fix: wit DOLPATCH: Reading 'offset' failed on 32 bit systems.

wit v2.21a r4489 - 2013-06-15
- The default image format switched from WDF to WBFS. This is only relevant,
if no image type is specified by source, option or file extension, for
example for the command "wwt EXTRACT".
- wit DUMP --long: If dumping a DOL file, a third table with delta values
between the virtual address and the file offset is printed.
- New command: wit DOLPATCH: Patch a DOL file by reading a Riivolution XML
file and scanning all memory tags.
-> Read http://wit.wiimm.de/cmd/wit/dolpatch for details.
- If extracting an image, the file 'setup.txt' contains now a new parameter:
"image-type = TYPE". It shows the image type of the source image.
If cretaing an image and file 'setup.txt' contains this paramater with a
valid image type, this image type is used as default for the new created
image. The default is superseded by format options and file extensions.
This feature is dedicated to patching scripts. If an original image is
extracted with "wit extract -1n ANYID6 . WORKDIR --psel data" and then
patched, an image with identical image type as the original can be created
by the command: wit copy WORKDIR %x --id NEWID6 --name "new title of game"
- For easier script/batch support, the files "setup.sh" and "setup.bat" are
created for extracted images. They contain similar info as "setup.txt", but
can be directly included by ". ./PATH/setup.sh" or "CALL PATH\setup.bat"
to get the settings as script variables.
- Cygwin (Windows) DDLs updated.
- Title data base updated.

Wiiflow 4.1.3
hey guys, time to update to 4.1.3!
not much changed this time but you know stability updates are important, thats the log:
-added my ntsc-j patch for gc games, meaning you should be able to play japanese gc games on non-japanese properly now
-updated the wii game video patching, now if you set video patching to normal or higher, it will also apply the sneek video patch, this will give you a much higher compatility in patching video modes
-added fwrite patch, just set debugger to OSReport
-fixed up some neek rev checks
-replaced the "Disabled" hooktype by "AUTO", meaning it will automatically set the hooktype VBI for you if you want to use cheats but forgot to select a hooktype
-added debugger pause back, it will be automatically enabled if you just use debugger but no cheats
-added full plugin dol path support, meaning if you use for example
dolFile=usb1:/apps/snes9xgx/boot.dol as dol file path,
wiiflow will also load it from there, if you just specify for example
dolFile=snes9xgx.dol, wiiflow will add the plugin path to it to build like
usb1:/wiiflow/plugins/snes9xgx.dol for loading
-added plugin dol path auto partition searching, meaning if you do
dolFile=apps/snes9xgx/boot.dol, wiiflow will check through
sd:/apps/snes9xgx/boot.dol, then usb1:/apps/snes9xgx/boot.dol, etc.
-updated wiiflows libraries, this should give more stability especially for cover loading
-added quadforce 4+ support
-added a new plugin argument, {name_no_ext}, it will get replaced by the filename, just without its extension
-now required and selected categories are cleared whenever you change source(s)
