The new version is available from the Alternate Download Sites (e.g. OneDrive)
MakePartImage.cmd has now been modified to estimate the size of the .imgPTN file needed by using 7z.exe. It is now much more accurate (but takes a bit longer) and the 'Suggested size' seems to always work now (at least on the 100 files I have tested so far...). It also has better error handling.
Note that you should only run one instance of MakePartImage at a time and it does not seem to work if the target folder is a Microsoft Storage Pool volume (ImDisk issue?).
The script Convert_all_ISOs_to_imgPTN_Files (run as Admin).cmd which is in the Utils folder of the MPI Tool Kit folder has also been improved. This batch file allows you to convert all the isos in a folder (and subfolders) without needing to answer the usual questions from MakePartImage or press ENTER. Just go and get a cup of coffee and the .imgPTN files should all be there when you come back.
(You still need to answer the delete/make EI.cfg question though for Windows Install ISOs).
You can now specify a partial file spec (e.g. fed*.iso) and ask it to re-make all .imgPTN files again or only the missing ones. It also does not have to be an iso (e.g. you can use *.ima or dlc*.zip).
If you select AUTORUN, it will also use the 'best guess' for the Syslinux version rather than prompt you for which version to use.
0.083 is not yet released on the official www.easy2boot.com website as it is considered a 'Release Candidate' at the moment.
Please let me know how you get on if you try it.
P.S. 0.083 is now available on the www.easy2boot.com website - it is a slightly different version from the RC candidate. The new version is dated 2018-07-10.
