- Made a nice header to the 'readme_ex.txt' =).


- Added 'makefiles/' directory to the source pack so there is no need to edit
  the makefiles, just overwrite the official ones with them and compile!.


- Fixed a little issue with the new CPS drivers cleanup that was making it impossible
  to load any CPS-2 game [ThanX to Leaf].


- Updated the CPS drivers structure with IQ_132's cleanup, for more info about
  the changes check this thread at NeoSource [ThanX to IQ_132]:

- Removed the 'Reload DAT' button from the game info dialog for final release.


- Rom(s) Information has been added to the Game Info module, now the info is loaded
  from FBA and does'nt have to be in every one of the DATs. [ThanX IQ_132 for helping]



- Added new Game Information module, to use this feature you must right click the game
  you want and a popup menu will be displayed with three options:
    > -------------------------------
    > View Game Information...      -> This will open up the Game Info dialog
    > Edit Game Info DAT...          -> This will open the DAT with your default editor (Ex. MS Word)
    > -------------------------------
    > Play The King of Fighters 2003  -> This will load the selected game :-)
    > -------------------------------
  DAT(s) must be located in 'gameinfo/' directory to be succesfully loaded.
  The current pack of DATs exclusive for FB Alpha can be found at NeoSource forums (http://neosource.1emu.net/forums/).


- Updated FBA Extras, now the src is compatible with the latest official
  release of FBA (v0.2.96.71).


- Fixed a missing line of code for the Instant Play mode feature (other FBA Extras releases are fine).


- Added 'gameinfo/' dir to the directory creation module in 'main.cpp'.


- Fixed gradient effect color in the Visual Studio menu theme, tested on different systems and its
  displaying the correct colors now (gray gradient).


- Added another text file with info about the files added / modified in the FBA source (for dev. purposes).


- Modified the way game info is displayed, now it simulates to be merged in the
  game selection window.


- Fixed an actual FB Alpha bug with popup dialogs in the game selection window (Scanning ROMs & ROMs Directories dialogs)


- Added option to disable the splash screen.


- Fixed the way Turbo Mode was activated pressing F1, now its done via
  shortcut key in 'app.rc' resulting more effective than in 'run.cpp' wich
  was not updating the check in the menu.
