Overall Notes

All Touhou Games are patched with the most current official patches and fan-made
english language patches.
The english files have an "E" in the file name and usually in the icon as well,
with some exceptions where the original .exe file was patched instead.
All scores were cleared and no replays are present in any game folder.
All games are playable right away and do not need to get installed.
If there is a font file (.ttf) in a game folder, install it into your system fon
t folder to get the optimal gameplay experience.
Install the DirectX 9 Update before playing, since it's required to play the new
er Touhou Games.
Standard Keys usually can't be changed, so the games are based on a few standard
keys.
Z (or Y for Europeans) for shooting, X for Bombs (Spellcards), the Arrow Keys or
the NumPad for movement, Shift for focused shooting and Esc for pausing.
A few games use more or less buttons, which is best looked up here: http://touho

Game Specific Notes
* TH01 - TH05 are only available for the japanese PC-98 platform, so an emulator
has been supplied. Put the ROMs in a HDD slot to start them.
* Not all of the earlier Touhou games are Danmaku games, for example in TH01, yo
u have to shoot and slash your Yin-Yang Orb to throw it at enemies.
* TH06 has a re-texture update available, which was not installed but is present
in the "Extras" folder in case you want to use it.
* TH09 has an external online netplay function available which was installed rig
ht away with the english patch.
You have to edit the IP of your opponent manually in the "adonis_config.ini" fil
e to be able to play online.
To start the game, both players have to open adonise.exe, one has to be the serv
er, the other one the client.
(During the english patch installation, all available options were set to keep t
he game as much traditional as possible.)
* TH12 didn't get a translation patch yet.
* TH12.3 didn't get a translation patch yet.
