The Nyaomi Arcade project exists out of multiple components.

Reverse Engineering/Documenting the JVS (JAMMA Video Standard[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JAMMA#JAMMA_Video_Standard]) protocol and create a working implementation for it (and improve it!), Cleaning up the Sega Naomi Universal cabinet, Designing and creating new Input Boards for the cab, Installing a PC for arcade use, Create a Arcade loader, and whatever we can come up with!

-- This is Currently under construction, please ask TheOnlyJoey or smeding directly to use the cabinet --

== NyaomiLoader ==

This is a game loader written by TheOnlyJoey which allows easy game switching.

This loader uses a simple config file (library.cfg) where games can be added by adding 2 simple lines.

Example:

<tt>Game = TorusTrooper

Picture = TorusTrooper.png</tt>

When adding 'Game = TorusTrooper', the loader will look for a 'TorusTrooper.sh' files in the 'scripts' folder, which you can add the launch command in for the game.
Please do not add Spaces, and everything is caps sensitive.

When adding 'Picture = TorusTrooper.png', the loader will look for 'TorusTrooper.png' in the 'gamepics' folder.

The picture must be 560x400 resolution.

The game will be added for selection when the NyaomiLoader gets started.
