It makes too many changes to the system that are far too hard to fix. I use wincdemu. Is it possible you could add a setup for that? If not that then maybe virtual clonedrive?

Thanks.

Thanks! Please understand that RJ is still in development, so use the update option and leave feedback in this thread regarding any bugs.

Daemon Tools is only used for FM Towns and Sega Saturn. I would really like to use wincdemu portable. Unfortunately it seems that the cli support is shoddy at best.

You're not alone in your feelings about Daemon Tools. Many people don't like it. I am unhappy with it as well, but it offers some unique abilities and it's cli is robust.

It appears that virtual clone drive has the necessary functionality, but I am uncertain that it is better than daemon tools. Can you explain what vcd does or doesn't do that would compel me to rewrite the scripts?

VCD doesn't install SPTD, which is a cancer on systems. I thought you were using DT to mount for other emulators as well, but I don't use those 2, so it's not really an issue for me.

SPTD limits speeds on virtual drives to virtual drive speeds, and can affect the performance of physical drives as well, which is just silly. That's why imgburn always prompts you to remove it whenever it runs. Check this post out.

Just happened upon this and it sounds amazing! However, I am having some problems. When trying to download anything, be it the emulators or Daemon Tools it just hangs up. The cmd prompt pops up and the download progress stalls at zero indefinitely like it can't access the download server. I tried accessing the files via my web browser and it times out. Host down possibly? Or is it on my end? Anyways, great work anyhow. Thanks for your time and effort.

RoM-Jacket uses a program called aria to download files (in a manner similar to a torrent) from several webservers. This helps lighten the load, speed up the transfer and maximize bandwidth.
Unfortunately, they are free (unreliable) webservers and because they get almost no traffic, are constantly being turned off.

This updated mirror file should be placed in the "RJ\RomJacket" folder and RoM-Jacket should be restarted. Your files should now download.
