T2 The Arcade Game IPS patch
version 1.01
22nd April 2016
by fusaru
made with HivePAL, TileLayerPro

==Purpose of the patch==
Modify the game's colors so it looks closer to the arcade version. Minimal graphics editing to reinsert the dark sky in stages 1, 3 and 4.

==Usage==
Apply the included IPS file to the ROM (e.g. via Retrofreak, Retron 5, dedicated program such as "StealthPatch IPS Patcher").
If you get a red screen, the checksum needs to be fixed. Programs such as ESE FixCheckSum can do this for you.

==Notes==
*a patch I did long ago, and finally finished after adding some final touches with TileLayerPro
*maybe works with the Japanese version (just a different packaging but same ROM data perhaps?)
*not really an arcade colors patch as this game has mostly pixel artwork compared to the digitzed graphics of the arcade and SNES version, but you get the idea
*the game has fully uncompressed graphics, anyone can mod these easily
*a decent port with good music, but lacks some enemies, cutscenes and voice samples
*there seems to be a beta version with colors very similar to this hack, wonder why they changed it
*for HivePAL users that want to improve this or do their own colors (incomplete)
