News/Version Descriptions:

About Overloader 1.5P4: Shouldn't crash on startup anymore on some Buzz setups (please try this if your Buzz crashed on startup with the previous Overloader 1.5P, but worked well with Overloader 1.5M bundled with the Buzz Pack). It might be a bit faster to load as well compared to Overloader 1.5P. There two new switches for debugging: overload_disablesplash and overload_disabledlls. To use them, add these to oloadset.ini:

[SWITCHES]
overload_disablesplash=0
overload_disabledlls=0

About Overloader 1.5P: Overloader 1.5P has memory allocated differently for some things. Relying much more on dynamic allocation than pre-allocated arrays, this means that memory usage should be lower than with Overloader 1.5O2. Overloader 1.5P also now reintroduced the "h1" code, but now presents a more useful dialog box which provides a chance to block routing activity and show the Save As... dialog.

The Recorder system has been upgraded to 200, which the API handles as 64-bit floating point instead of 32-bit floating point, the 64-bit resolution won't benefit Buzz directly (since Buzz is still 32-bit internally); however, the same Recorder system is going to be used with Nakalyne, and newer Recorders (version 200) will handle 64-bit audio, so future Recorders will still work with Overloader.

Because of these major changes there can be bugs that creeped in, so O is still around. Do contact me about problems.
