In fact, a quick comparison of an old drive type .xml and a new one shows a lot of info is missing or omitted. Old file is 353 lines whereas the new is only 59 lines.
The I/O Information and Drive Information were separated into 2 different presets. For this particular revision, the I/O preset screen was hidden, but should appear in the next revision.

Separating them is useful for when you use different drives but use one standard i/o layout.

This is a new file that has to be added called "user_language.msg" which can then be moved from version to version without having to edit language.msg everytime we put a new build out.
Thanks for this! That took care of the last three that I couldn't change on the main menu with the language.msg file. Nice that it's portable too!

Call me anal, but that looks better. :lol:

What's the file name for the I/O information? Is it another XML file? I'd like to add this file to the script I use to copy out all important machine parameters. The I/O info in a single file saves a lot of time on new installs.

Same meaning, but in (at least American) English, it's shorthand for "anal retentive" -- as in, extremely fussy.

Thanks for pointing this out, attached is a quick fix for you. Extract the contents of the .zip into your C:\cnct directory and overwrite. This issue will be resolved in future revisions.
