This project aims to turn the Kingdom Hearts DS games into playable PC games with a single screen and controls suited for a regular controller.
This is a version of melonDS with some modifications made specifically to improve those specific games experience. Any issues you have with KH Melon Mix should be reported in this same repository, and not in melonDS repository.

- Download the latest version for your system (not the source code zip);
- Open the downloaded ZIP file and copy the contents to an empty folder;
- Dump an original copy of "Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days" and copy the NDS file to your computer;
- Rename that NDS file to "days.nds", place it inside a folder named "roms", and then place that folder next to the Melon Mix executable that you just copied;
- Replace the assets folder with this assets folder (this step is only required if you want to replace the DS cutscenes with HD cutscenes);
- Now you just need to launch the Melon Mix using "MelonMix_KHDays.bat" (or MelonMix_KHDays.sh if you are not on Windows).
