-- zlib (optional) - The release binaries are built against a static zlib compiled

-  to compile zlib - if you want to use the project files supplied with zlib you have to add
-  _tfwopen.h to their force include list
 
-- libpng (optional) - Like zlib, this is a renamed libpng.lib, built against the same

-  HAVE_LIBPNG is the define used to include this code, used for screenshots.
   (the libpng directory should reside at win32/../../libpng, i.e. 2 directories up)
 
-- fmod (optional) - Versions 3.20 and above. Used to provide extra sound output
-  options that increases hardware compatibility with some PC hardware.
-  Version 3.33 broke A3D support on some hardware so I reverted back to
-  version 3.20. However, I'm told 3.40, just released at time of writing,  fixes the problem.
-  Download from www.fmod.org Unpack into a temp folder and copy the API
-  sub-folder contents into win32/../../fmod. Disable fmod support by removing the
-  FMOD_SUPPORT from the Preprocessor Definitions text box.
-
-- fmod ex (optional) - Used to provide extra sound output. Cannot be used at the same time as
-  normal FMOD support. Disable fmod support by removing the FMODEX_SUPPORT from the Preprocessor
-  Definitions text box.
-
 - CG Toolkit - Enables CG Shader support. This can be downloaded from nvidia's CG toolkit page:
   http://developer.nvidia.com/object/cg_download.html
   Only the header files are required to compile.
 
 - To compile Snes9x:
-    Start up Visual C++.
+    Start up VS2017.
-    Load the Snes9x project file.
+    Load the Snes9x solution.
     Select the desired configuration and build.
     The Release configuration may build significantly slower than Debug.
     Then you can run it.
