README

This has been hacked together in a rush.
It shows how to use the Stern emulation libraries from FarSights Pinball Arcade games.

It has only been tested with MinGW, SternGB.dll, 5409-0.0001.

# Usage

Make sure you are using a 32-bit compiler, then do the standard CMake build process:

```
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
```

Use the [pba-tools](https://github.com/JayFoxRox/pba-tools) rez utility to extract the ROM file (also image.bin / Flash in Stern terminology) from the games REZ file.
Then copy all required DLLs to your stern-pba-emu folder and run the following:

```
./stern-pba-emu SternGB.dll 5409-0.0001
```

Make sure to have all DLL dependencies in your build folder. In case of SternGB.dll (at the time of writing) these are msvcp110d.dll and msvcr110d.dll.
