Version 6.1 of the software will feature significant improvements in Windows’ Direct3D and system 3D support as well as boost support for Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 7 web browser. The company will also improve support on CD copy protection, allowing the program to function when a legitimate CD is inserted in an optical drive (this can help improve recognition of valid CDs and allow for additional Windows games to be recognized and played).
The firm is currently also exploring retail channels to sell the software in.
