Introduction
------------
SMS Plus is a Sega MasterSystem/GameGear emulator for the Sega Dreamcast.
It's a brand new port of my own which has nothing to do with the existing one
from ss_teven.I've also improved the emulation engine resulting a better
compatibility, so that's why the version number is not Beta 8 but v0.1.
Enjoy :)
Sms Plus for DC is freeware but i'll be pleased having a postal card from you
if you like it , thanks :)
my street address is :
Pascal Bosquet
134 rue du fort

Burning instructions
--------------------
The emulator is distributed as individuals files,the zip file have all the
separated files that you'll have to burned for making work the emulator.
the cd layout is the same as in the zipped file.
ip.bin (start program)
1st_read.bin (the program scrambled)
readme.txt (this file)
/snap/sms/ (put your sms snapshot there in 256 colors pcx format)
/snap/gg/ (put your gg snapshot there in 256 colors pcx format)
Additionally, you can put your ROMS (unzipped !) on this CD.
This will prevent the cd swap. you can create as much directories as you want.
Me, i used a per letters ordering which is easier for browsing,it's up to like
For getting games snapshot working :
Sms : Put your snapshots (pcx 256 colors 256x192) in the /snap/sms dir.
The pcx must have the same name as the rom, so if your game is named
"Alex.sms", you must have a "Alex.pcx" in the /snap/sms/
Gg : Put your snapshots (pcx 256 colors 160x144) in the /snap/gg dir.
It's the same requirement as the sms, you must have the same name.
So with "Ninja.gg", you must have a "Ninja.pcx" in the /snap/gg/
The directory "snap" won't appear in the gui so it's a reserved name :)
I advice you to rename all your games using smschecker from Maxim
