===================================================
   THE EMULATOR WITH A FUNNY NAME
===================================================

Kawa-X is the XBox port of a Windows emulator I made some time ago named
Kawaks.
It allows to play titles from the Capcom CPS1, CPS2 and SNK NeoGeo library.
Pretty much all games are supported, even these 90mb monsters that would
normally not fit into the XBox's limited 64mb RAM. (This emu includes a
significant amount of black magic

) For the more recent encrypted NeoGeo
games, though, only the decrypted form is supported (64Mb of RAM won't allow
to do the decryption). Kawaks (PC version) can produce decrypted sets, if you
only have encrypted versions...
See the included list of supported titles for more info...

There's the following goodies waiting inside :
- CPS1, CPS2, NeoGeo support (doh)
- Plenty of nice eye candy video filters (more about that later)
- Redefinable controls (including handy macros like keys to do 3 punches, etc)
- Can save screenshots
- Savestates (8 slots per game)
- You can play NeoGeo games either in arcade mode or in console mode
- You can switch region (language settings) for every supported CPS2 game.
   For example, that means you can play the normally japanese only Mighty Pang
   in english if you want...


About video filters.
The following video engines are supported:
- Regular blurry non filtered output.
- AdvanceMAME 2x scaling
- A zoom 200% output named Zoom 2x (fast and sharp)
- 2xSai
- Super2xSai
- SuperEagle
- A RGB effect which I named Monitor matrix that simulates lowres monitor ouput

Imo, the one that looks the best is AdvanceMAME2x, so I made it the default.
2xSai, Super2xSai, SuperEagle ask for a lot of horsepower from the console, so
I don't recommend using them (can cause slowdowns). AdvanceMAME2x looks just as
good and is way faster anyway.

The files Kawa-X generates are stored on E:\TDATA000FA7E
That's where you'll find the screenshots you saved and the settings for all the
games. Normally you won't need to mess with there but well...

The rest is pretty obvious, there's even an help screen built in to remind you
the controls to access the features in the emu.
Roms go in the \ROMS subdirectory.
For NeoGeo games you need the NeoGeo BIOS file (neogeo.zip) too...

That's all folks, go play now
