=================================================
Version : 0.2.0

=================================================


Changes:
--------
 - Added boot mode selection menu with fast boot, full boot and load cart options
 - Implemented IGR patches (fast boot only) triggered by A+B+C+Start or reset button
 - Game titles are now automatically sorted by alphabetical order in the menu
 - Improved boot-loader compatibility (should be nearly perfect now)
 - Slight improvements to the menu GUI


Description:
------------
RMENU is an homebrew software for the Sega Saturn - developed to act as a menu system for the 
Rhea/Phoebe SD card based optical drive emulators.
This software serves the basic purpose of making the process of selecting what game to play an 
easy task.
For more information on the ODEs visit the following page: https://gdemu.wordpress.com/about


Instructions:
-------------
 - Start by copying the folder named '01' included in the RMENU zip archive to the root of your 
   SD card.

 - In case the folder '01' is already present and has a disc image inside, please make sure to 
   move the contents elsewhere first.

 - Open said folder and run the application 'RMENU.exe' contained inside, it will scan the SD 
   card for games and create the RMENU.iso file.

 - When the scan finishes there's a prompt to edit the game titles (edited titles are saved for 
   that particular SD card only).

 - Finally insert the SD card (with newly created menu iso) into your Rhea/Phoebe and power-on 
   your Sega Saturn.

 - After booting up if everything went according to plan you should see a menu with the list of 
   games currently on your SD card.

 - Enjoy and have fun!


Controls:
---------
 - UP/DOWN D-pad buttons are used to navigate the games list.
 - L/R shoulder buttons are used for switching between pages.
 - START button can be used to quickly boot the selected game.
 - (A) button opens up the boot mode selection menu.
 - (B) button exits from the menu returning to the BIOS CD player.
 - (C) button shows info about the selected game and ODE/firmware.


Notes:
------
 - The "fast boot" option is the default/preferred boot mode which supports the in-game reset 
   patching and is faster as the name implies.

 - The "full boot" option is a fall-back mode (on the off chance some game has problems with 
   the boot-loader) which performs a full system reset and lacks in-game reset patching.

 - The "load cart" option is a way to quickly launch the cart software before booting a game 
   (e.g. to apply cheats) and is only available when a boot-able cartridge is detected.

 - In order for the in-game reset feature to function properly, your Rhea.ini or Phoebe.ini 
   config file must contain the line "reset_goto = 1" (without quotes).

 - To perform an in-game reset simply press A+B+C+START a couple times in the controller or 
   use the reset button instead which resets the system instantly/unconditionally.

 - In some very rare cases the button combination is X+Y+Z+START instead and some games even 
   allow for it to be re-configured in the options/controls menu.

 - For slightly faster boot times and to return to the menu quicker (after an in-game reset) 
   the following timer values are recommended in the Rhea/Phoebe config file:
   open_time = 300
   detect_time = 150
