Type:         game/race

Architecture: m68k-amigaos

ZZVirtuaRacingRIX is an ENHANCED version of Sega's Virtua Racing
Deluxe for classic Amigas with an MNT ZZ9000 and XACP firmware.

THIS IS NOT JUST A CONVENTIONAL SEGA 32X EMULATOR.

The ZZ9000 FPGA RasterIX GPU performs hardware-accelerated 3D
rendering of reconstructed game polygons. PicoDrive emulates the
original Sega 32X game logic and audio on ZZ9000 ARM Core1.

Enhanced 3D graphics:
- 640 x 480 hardware-accelerated RasterIX polygon rendering.
- Up to 60 displayed images/s using 3D interpolation between the
  original game's approximately 20 FPS updates (game logic unchanged).
- Translucent shadows and smoke instead of checkerboard effects.
- Extended track draw distance with progressive distance fading.
- Smoother sky, sharper polygon edges, enhanced wheel animation.
- Original menus, sound and single-player gameplay preserved.

Installation:
1. Copy the ZZVirtuaRacingRIX drawer to your Amiga.
2. Run ZZVirtuaRacingRIX_Setup from Workbench.
3. Select your own Virtua Racing Deluxe (USA) Sega 32X ROM.
   Required: 3 MiB .32x, CRC32 7896B62E (USA only).
4. Setup validates the ROM and creates the local game executable
   and its Workbench icon. Double-click the generated icon to play.

No copyrighted game ROM is distributed. Do not redistribute the
locally generated game executable because it contains your ROM.

Requirements:
- AmigaOS 3.x, 68020 or better, MNT ZZ9000 with 640x480
  16-bit Picasso96/RTG mode and approximately 6 MiB free RAM.
- XACP XX19d-RIX firmware (or later compatible XACP firmware)
  and matching XACP zz9000.card for RasterIX GPU acceleration.
- Official MNT 1.0-1.13 and BlitterStudio firmware are NOT compatible.
- CD32 controller or joystick; Paula audio (default) or optional AHI.
- Five save-state slots. Two-player VS is not supported in v1.0.
