[INSTALL]
--------------------------->

/PSP/GAME/NEOCDPSP/
(or any others directory since v0.5)
                  + EBOOT.PBP
                  + loading.bmp
                  + logo.bmp
                  + NEOCD.BIN (BIOS)
           
Games can be zipped or unzipped.
Music in mp3 format have to be in a "neocd.mp3" subfolder.

Example :

/PSP/GAME/NEOCDPSP/MetalSLug/
                            + mslug.zip
                            + neocd.mp3/
                                       + Metal Slug - Track 02.mp3
                                       + Metal Slug - Track 03.mp3           
                                       + Metal Slug - Track 04.mp3
                                       ....
                                       + Metal Slug - Track 20.mp3

You can uncompress the zip file for faster loading time.
MP3 Tracks have to finish by the "tracker number.mp3" 

=> "mslug-02.mp3" is good
=> "02-mslug.mp3" is wrong

[HISTORY]

-
0.5

* Rendering fixed (sprite disappearing)
* New render using psp hardware 
* Improved GUI
* New feature : autofire for A,B,C,D neogeo buttons
* Changed memory io and z80 emulation with NeoDC 2.3 sources (music in more games)
* New GFX from great pochi! http://pochiicon.hp.infoseek.co.jp/
* Screenshot (press R trigger), saved in uncompressed 24bits BMP (480x272)

[COMING NEXT]

* load/save state
* 

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
[KNOWN BUGS]

* emulation isn't perfect (lack of technical documentation for the neogeo cd)
-> so no sound/no music in some games
-> sometimes music is stopped when putting game in pause (pressing select/start) and 
not resumed when resuming game.
* some games won't work at all

* If you want this to change, you'll have to find me neogeo cd technical documentations
or an emulator which does the job better with sourcecode available ;-)
