ccdisk, cloud, setup

  • As our other products have transitioned to the cloud, it's now time for CCDisk to receive an upgrade as well. Starting from version 2023 0824, CCBootCloud and CCDisk are integrated within the cloud panel.
  • And after version 20240420 CCDiskclient is integrated in CCBootclient.

  • Here are the notable changes:
  1. CCDisk now shares the same server and client setup as CCBootCloud.
  2. Similar to CCBootCloud, CCDisk is managed from the Cloud panel, although with different settings because of their distinct functionalities.
  3. The cloud panel section dedicated to CCDisk is labeled "Disk," whereas the corresponding section for CCBootCloud is labeled "Boot."
  4. If you set iCafeMenu to run before the desktop, it will not work because the disk is not ready before the desktop.
  5. If your license includes CCBootCloud and iCafeCloud, the game fix will run through iCafeMenu. If your license is for CCBootCloud only, the game fix will run through CCBootClient.
  6. Transitioning between CCBootCloud and CCDisk can be accomplished through the following steps:
  7. To change from CCBoot to CCDisk or visa versa done by settings
  8. Go to settings - center settings - CCDisk mode (Figure 1)
    a.Enable = CCDisk is enabled
    b.Disable = CCBoot is enabled
