====ETC====

Note that this game will run great under any relatively recent version of Wine.

Various virus scanners reported previous version as being infected. This is solely due to
the use of UPX compression for various parts of the game.


====CHANGES====

Changes List v1.21
#################
New versions of sdl.dll and sdl_net.dll, which improves the efficiency.

Changes List v1.2
#################
Multiple resolutions options added to launcher, along with an option to stretch the screen.

Removed Overclock x3 (Caused graphical glitches)

Save state support, with up to ten slots.

Ogg Vorbis files are now at 128Kbs instead of 64KBs. Note that the CD-DA tracks were ripped
from a perfect copy of the game (As in previous versions...) so sound quality should be very
good.

Changes List v1.11
##################
Bug in Overclock options fixed.

Default BRAM file (load.sav) removed; this prevents installing over an
old copy from wiping your save. However, you will have to sit through the
intro now, if it's your first time playing.

New icon for installer.

Changes List v1.1
#################
OGG tracks have been re-encoded at twice the bitrate.

System Card 3 (Core.bin) has a nicer title logo hacked into it, and is ZIP compressed.

Default Controls changed, due to the ease of accidentally hitting W, then Q (Soft Reset).

Menu launcher for the game created, which allows many new options to be set.

All extraneous keys in Mednafen have been disabled, so only Esc, F1, F2 and the controls work now.
