-Dolphin
-=======
-Open Source Release under GPL 2
-
-by F|RES & ector
-
-Contributions by:
-zerofrog, yaz0r, tmbinc
-
-DX9 gfx plugin by ector
-OpenGL gfx plugin by zerofrog
-
-System Requirements:
-* Windows 2000 or higher. The Linux build is at least 80% done, it starts,
-  but won't run games yet. There's a bug somewhere.
-* Fast CPU. Dual core a plus.
-* Any reasonable modern GPU, support for pixel shaders 2.0 required.
-
-New Features
-* Interprets Action Replay codes
-* Buggy framerate limiter, deactivated
-* Full Xbox 360 Controller support, with rumble
-
-Dolphin is a Gamecube emulator. It also has preliminary support for Wii and 
-Triforce emulation.
-
-Gamecube compatibility is about the same as previous releases.
-
-Wii compatibility is very low. Some games show their intro movies, that's it.
-There is preliminary Wiimote emulation but it does not work yet.
-
-We haven't worked on Dolphin for a long time, except for a short burst adding
-the basic Wii support, and we don't think we will finish it, so we hereby 
-release it, in its current unfinished state, to the world.
-
-Usage Notes
------------
-The GUI should be pretty much self-explanatory.
-
-To attempt to boot Wii ISOs, you need the disc master key. It should be
-called "masterkey.bin". Put it in the Wii subdirectory.
-
-To use Action Replay codes, follow the examples in the Patches subdirectory.
-Use + in front of a cheat name to activate it. The cheats can be named 
-anything.
-
-Code Notes
-----------
-Dolphin is written in C++. It's compiled with Visual Studio 2005. An
-installation of the DirectX SDK is required.
-
-To tweak settings for the JIT/Dynarec, see Core/PowerPC/Jit64/JitCache.cpp,
-in InitCache().
-
-We have a scons build system set up, but if anyone wants to create an 
-automake solution, go ahead, we'd appreciate it.
-
-We are looking for new source code maintainers.
