 # popnhax
 
-Arcade game patcher.
+Patcher for pop'n music arcade game.
+
+Featuring pfree, instant retire, visual and audio offset adjust, 1000Hz input polling for true ms-based timing, unlimited favorites, auto hi-speed selection, iidx-like hard gauge and more..
 
 Based on [bemanihax](https://github.com/windyfairy/bemanihax) whose an updated version was included with omnimix v1
 
+### Features
+
+Refer to [popnhax.xml](https://github.com/CrazyRedMachine/popnhax/blob/main/dist/popnhax/popnhax.xml) for complete list and explanations
+
+More info could be found in [Release Notes](https://github.com/CrazyRedMachine/popnhax/releases) or in the [popnhax_tools](https://github.com/CrazyRedMachine/popnhax_tools) repository.
+
+### Run Instructions
+
+- Extract all files directly in the `contents` folder of your install.
+
+(**Note**: if you're running your dlls from `modules` subfolder, please rather copy them back into `contents` folder).
+
+- Edit `popnhax.xml` with a text editor and set your desired options.
+
+- Add `popnhax.dll` as an inject dll to your gamestart command or option menu.
+
+eg. modify your gamestart.bat to add `-k popnhax.dll` or `-K popnhax.dll` depending on the launcher you use.
+
+Some launchers also feature an option menu (accessible by pressing F4 ingame), in which case you can locate the "Inject Hook" setting in option tab. Enter `popnhax.dll` there.
+
 ### Build Instructions
 
-Should be working out of the box with MSYS2/MinGW32. Just run `make`.
+Using WSL is the recommended method. Just run `make`.
