Welcome to Patch Maker.


REGISTRATION
------------
This version is the unregistered version of Patch Maker. You can use 
it as long as you do not remove the advertisement screen at the end of 
the update patch programs. The registered version of Patch Maker does 
not have this end screen. You can register simply by connecting to 
http://www.clickteam.com.

A click on the HELP button will open your Internet browser directly at our 
online-documentation pages.


WHAT'S NEW IN THIS VERSION
--------------------------

* NEW: option Smallest / Fastest in the Build page. The previous versions
of Patch Maker use the Fastest option. The Smallest option allows to
decrease the size of your patch program in certain cases, especially with
big files.

* NEW: when files are in use by other applications, the patch program
prompts the user to reboot Windows.

* FIX: wrong directory created when installing .DLL files to the system 
directory.


WHAT'S NEW IN PREVIOUS VERSIONS
-------------------------------

* FIX: crash with NT 4.0 on a few video cards in full window mode.

* FIX: "CRC error" when using "excluded zones" with high offsets.

* FIX: "unknown version" error message incorrectly displayed when there
are 2 identical files in several old versions.

* FIX: no more "Out of memory" message when making a patch for a very big file.

* NEW: new option "If unknown version / Install it" in the File Options tab.


KNOWN PROBLEMS
--------------

* Patch Maker is not very efficient with some big files that are very different. 
This version of Patch Maker is much more efficient than the previous versions with
this kind of files, but is still not perfect and in some cases can give a result 
only equal to a normal zip compression.
