NEOFix
Neo*Geo ROM REPAIR UTILITY
* * * * * * * * * * * * * *

With any luck, you unzipped this to your ROMS subdirectory under MAME.  =
If not, you need to move it there to have MAME's audit functions work.
If you are converting from a NeoRAGE set of roms to a MAME (or =
hopefully, a new NeoRAGE) compliant version, you can still use the =
renaming and fixing utilities, just place the unzipped files in the same =
directory as your zipped roms.
* * *

1) IF YOU GET AN ERROR SAYING:
	MFC42D.DLL or MFSCRTD.DLL or MFCO42D.DLL not found
please visit http://www.mrdo.com/mfc.htm for information on why.  (Your =
Win9x system needs to be updated)  You can download the necessary files =
directly from: http://www.mrdo.com/mfc42d.exe.

2) If you want to keep the old MGD dump of Cyberlip (the n######x.### =
romset), make a backup copy.  The renaming process merges the two sets =
and deletes the n######x.### roms from it.

3) The Magical Drop 2 fix will only fix one of the two roms if your zip =
has errors with the drop32_c2.rom (like mine did).  Get a replacement =
from DataPotato.

4) Unless someone was nice enough to add it to this zip after I sent it =
off, it DOES NOT contain the Kizuna Encounter ke_v4.rom OR the Top =
Hunter thunt_c5.rom.  If you have not already done so, get it from =
DataPotato.

5) The renaming process should get *most* of the roms renamed.  If you =
made any attempt to convert them to run under MAME it should work 100%, =
but if you still have a ToP_HuNtEr.zip or some other off-named rom, you =
will either have to rename it yourself or modify the neo2mame.bat file.

6) If you have any roms (other the Magical Drop 2's drop2_c2.rom) that =
refuse to be resized after running trimit, copy the appropriate lines =
from an audit to the TRIMIT.DAT file.  Also, check and make sure that =
the zipfile does not have the roms stored with recursed subdirectories, =
as this screws up trimit.

7) When you run NEOFix, the first thing it does is copy the neogeo.zip =
from the parent directory (MAME, usually) in the current directory so =
that the audit functions work.  After you are finished with NEOFix you =
may delete it.

8) Don't run the I_amLazy.bat.  I spent too long on the GUI to have a =
batch file do it all...
