THE EMULATOR WITH A FUNNY NAME
===================================================
THIS FAQ IS RELATIVE TO KAWAKS 1.45 (AND LATER, HOPEFULLY)
IF YOU ARE USING AN OLDER KAWAKS, PLEASE UPGRADE, BECAUSE
THE BUGS YOU ARE EXPERIENCING ARE LIKELY TO BE FIXED NOW.

First of all, I'd like to thank all those who made Kawaks possible.
- The CPS2Shock team for their wonderfull work and their continuous support.
- Nicola Salmoria and MAMEdev for their invaluable CPS1/2/MVS MAME drivers.
- Mike Coates & Darren Olafson for their great 68000 emulation core.
(used in Kawaks since 1.20)
- Bart Trzynadlowski for his great 68000 emulation core (Turbo68K) and support.
(used in Kawaks up to version 1.14)

* New "KScale" blitter. This is a new edge enhancement blitter with zero blur. It's also insanely fast compared
to the traditionnal 2xSai/Super2xSai/SuperEagle. Comes in 4 variations: Plain, and 25%/50%/75% scanlines.
I personnally feel KScale+75%Scanlines is the best blitter in Kawaks, try it :) (MMX only)
* Shiny new "Smart Interframe blending" mode. (MMX and non MMX versions)
This new blending mode replaces all flickers (Samurai Shodown 4 life bars, King of Fighters shadows, etc ...)
by transparencies; and the rest of the picture retains all its sharpness (no blurry scrollings)
* Made it so interframeblending occurs before the video processing stage (speed boost)
* New keyboard shortcut : Alt+B toggles between Interblending modes
* New sound option : Low pass filter
* Fixed ShumaGorath's Chaos dimension in Marvel Super Heroes
* Rewrote Kaillera support. Now, emu will accept to run if you don't have Kailleraclient.dll, and
noone should see Kaillera errors on startup anymore.
* Sound logging option now saves a WAV, not a RAW
* Ctrl Numpad + and Ctrl Numpad - now control volume

* Fixed The King of Dragons (bootleg)
* A _lot_ of rewrites, notably in the video system and the general Kawaks architecture,
which gives a significant speedup on 2xSai, SuperEagle, SuperSai, Scanlined 2xSai,
will make the eventual addition of new systems easier, faster and more stable,
and allows the following :
* Added sprite transparencies, using Nebula tables.
Tables should be named gamename.bld and put in the BLEND directory (ex: SFA3.BLD)
* Added "Monitor dot matrix" blitter. Give it a try :)
* Added support for ElSemi's Cheater program. Cheater must be started before Kawaks
* Added menu items to control sound frequency. No need to edit WinKawaks.ini anymore for that.
* Optimised 'Interframe blending' code. Should be significantly faster with most blitters, now
* Rewrote DirectInput code: Hopefully fixes most controler problems
(mail me if it fixes your controler problems or not)
* Fixed Screenshot Factory blink and Tile viewer if Interframe Blending is enabled
* Fixed Scanlines 50% for some video cards (S3...)
* Hopefully fixed some screenshot issues
* Fixed flash frames in Marvel Vs Capcom
* Fixed ending in Marvel Vs Capcom
* NeoGeo isn't affected anymore by correct ration settings. Meaning it now looks better if these
options are enabled (espeacially with Normal blitter)
* Changed the way the video blitter selection works. For example, now, Shift+F3 is a toggle between
scanlines, 50% scanlines, and zoomX2...
* Added some keyboard shortcuts to the Load game, Screenshot Factory, Cheat boxes
* Added some keyboard shortcuts to the English menus
* Fixed Shot factory window size
* A few romset changes to match the latest conventions and dumps (affects CYBOTSJ, DDSOMU, SFAR1)

- Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors (Euro 940705)
* Changed kof2000, garou, kof99 and clones romsets to be MAME 57 compliant.
## READ THE INCLUDED 'ROMCHANGES.TXT' FILE FOR MORE INFO. ##
* Big optimisations to NeoGeo rendering
* Added frame interpolation (replaces flickering by transparencies)
I recommend you use this only if you have a powerfull PC enough, and with AutoFrameskip disabled
* Added starfield emulation (CPS1. Affects Strider, Forgotten Worlds and their clones)
* Fixed a NeoGeo calendar bug. Date is correct now
* Fixed Street Fighter II' - Champion Edition (Japan) (CPS1)
* Changed tracklists format for the better (more compact, and more flexible)
The format it now the same as ElSemi's excellent JukeBox program
Also, tracklist is handled dynamically: no need to reload the game to reload the tracklist.
* Added the ability to cycle thru sound codes for CPS1 and NeoGeo games. Use Numpad +/-
(It was already implemented for CPS2 games)
* Hopefully fixed sound issues in Kof99 and clones thanks to Overlander
* Fixed missing button 4 for CPS1 Quiz games
* Hopefully fixed crashes if the Kawaks is run from a CD (or a non writeable directory)
* Fixed bug causing (for example) Kof2000 chars to taunt at the end of a movie replay
* Fixed some tick marks errors for record input slot and bg color in menus
Try it Work great on Vista,...
