Almost everything can be changed from the configuration menu.  Here are the
things that require manual modifications to the NeoGenesis.INI file included in
the package: 

Note - you do not need to change the defaults in the INI that comes packaged
with NeoGenesis in order for NeoGenesis to run.  These are all *optional*.

Samba share name - goes in the [GENERAL] section.  Example:

smbshare=SMB://USERNAME:PASSWORD@COMPUTERNAME/SHARENAME

Screenshot directory - default is E:\SCREENSHOTS - goes in [GENERAL] section
Example:

screenshot_dir=E:\SCREENSHOTS

Skin directory - where skins can be found.  Default is D:\EMUSKINS - goes in
[GENERAL] section.  Example:

skin_dir=D:\EMUSKINS

Save directory - this is where you want all your saved games to be stored.
Default is E:\SAVES\NEOGENESIS.  Goes in [GENERAL] section.  Example:

save_dir=E:\SAVES\NEOGENESIS

The default ROM directory INI setting goes in the [GENERAL] section as follows:

rom_dir=d:\sgenroms

If you change any of the above items, then you must upload the new NeoGenesis.INI
file to your XBox, load up NeoGenesis, then select "Force Reload D:\\*.ini 
Settings" from the Configuration menu.  Please note that this will overwrite
any of the setting changes you might have made after you first loaded
NeoGenesis.

Controls:

===============
Menu Navigation
===============

Select menu options with the DPAD or with R/LTrigger.  The speed of 
R/LTrigger movements can be controlled by :

Configuration -> Menu Scroll Speed

There are some places where you can enter or change values.  This 
can usually be done in a variety of ways include DPAD Left/Right, 
R/L Trigger, and L/R Thumb.  Try all of them if the values are changing
too slowly.

"A" selects the highlighted choice.  "B" cancels/returns.
"Y" from a file-select list will go up one directory.
