It means probably than the data flow is now the same 0.6.11 loader probably
It would be great to try skies of arcadia intro, and Tomjam & earl 3 in order to check if the data flow is still good. And better than gdemu clone like 0.6.11 loader do.

I notice in low level with wince games, the loadings are "faster than speed", dreamshell, isoloader and the loader eat datas from device with huge gluttony !

There are two main things left to fix for the release. It is WinCE without low-level mode and VMU emulation. Other seems to be fine for me now.

the 0.6.0 loader does it. Hope, a similar issue exist. Else a special loader for wince games should be great too.
Same thing for a homebrew loader if it can help.
Even if this fabulous 0.8.0 loader is so multitaskings !

Thank you very much According to @pcwzrd13 they are still some reluctant... Maybe this lightweight loader could improve the compatibility beyond looney toons.

I really wish to try sturmwind, shadow gangs and other "odd" games too, in order to see the improvements. Probably some good things happened

I can't be able to do tests today unfortunately... I'm terribly sorry.
