+
+After downloading the version suitable for you (Windows or Linux), you must unzip the file and then you can run it. Please note, there are two versions for each platform, a Qt version with user interface and one without (SDL Builds).
+
+## Install PKG files
+
+To install PKG files (game and updates), you will need the Qt application (with UI). You will have to go to "File" then to "Install Packages (PKG)", a window will open then you will have to select the files. You can install multiple PKG files at once. Once finished, the game should appear in the application.

+
+## Configure the emulator
+
+You can configure the emulator in the "user" folder (created after the first start of the application) then in the "config.toml" file. Here you can find lots of parameters to set with True or False.
