Ockingshay used our news submit to tell us about this latest
release. For those unfamiliar with the product: Game
Jackal has been designed to do away with the need for both disks and virtual
drives in order to play your disks. It creates a small profile of the game that
you want to play and then uses that to launch the game without the CD being in
the drive.
 What's new in this release: v2.7.10.317 (2.0.0.2045)
- Game Jackal now supports limited user
accounts. Important note, you need to reinstall Game Jackal from the
installer to activate this feature.
- The addition of an extended profiling
mode to provide more solid game profiling.
- A Game Jackal profile shortcut will
start the profile even if Game Jackal is not running (when the profile
is shutdown Game Jackal will also shutdown).
- Changes to the online activation engine
and the implementation of logging to improve the reliability of the
online process.
- Additional command line options can be
passed from a profile shortcut.
- Improved profiling for time sensitive
games.
- Improved the performance of Game Jackal
while a profile is active (i.e. reduced performance impact that some
users were experiencing).
- Added a profile copy
function.
- Added an option to change how Game
Jackal starts when Windows starts (this is also available in the
installer).
- Added an option to copy the profile key
to the clipboard when viewed.
- Minor interface tweaks.
Bug Fixes:
- BSOD issue that can occur when creating
and using profiles (this also includes issues experienced when certain
Anti-virus software is installed).
- 120 DPI issue with some
dialogs
- button overlapping issues experienced
by some users.
