emuControlCenter @ GITHUB!

[Phoenix]

Hello fellow retro-gamers,

Today i made ECC available on GITHUB, it was a lot of work and uploading , but it's there now!
Even ALL 46 RELEASES (and never before released versions) from 2006 til now...

So even if you need old win32 releases for Win98/XP, they are there!

Bare in mind: Github fixes will be added soon!, they are:
- Workaround for MAMA DAT File (due to 100 MB filesize limit on github)
- Make ECC's CORE free...it was already, but now for everyone to code new thing into the core!

Then next up is adding stuff you posted last year on this forum!

Well...make your code commits!, and we build further on the foundation...

Enjoy life, enjoy ECC !!

No ECC.EXE is just a fraction ;-)

Download ECC from github...ALL OF IT, then you can overwrite the old installation (yes to overwrite files) (the database will not be overwritten)

That should do it!
