Virtual Pro Wrestling 2: Recompiled (beta)
========================================

A native PC port of Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 (N64), produced by static
recompilation. This download contains NO game assets — you must own the game
and supply your own ROM of the Japanese release (the only revision).

Getting started
---------------
1. Unzip this folder anywhere and run Vpw2Recompiled.exe.
2. Click "Load ROM" and select your Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 - Oudou Keishou (Japan) ROM
   (SHA1 82DD25A044689EAB57AB362FE10C0DA6388C217A). The launcher validates
   and remembers it. Fan-translation patched ROMs are not accepted
   (their hashes differ).
3. Click "Start Game".

Notes
-----
- Windows may show a SmartScreen warning because the exe is unsigned:
  "More info" -> "Run anyway".
- Saves and settings live in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Vpw2Recompiled\. The cart's
  cartridge save (progress, created wrestlers) persists automatically.
  To make the install portable instead, create an empty file named
  portable.txt next to the exe.
- A log file (Vpw2Recompiled.log) is written to the same folder — include
  it when reporting bugs.
- F11 or Alt+Enter toggles fullscreen.
