Patch found on Zophar's. It's an incomplete patch. Anyway, I had it working before my HD crashed. Now, whenever I try to apply the patch everything is all glitchy and nothing displays properly. I've tried it with SMAS, SMAS+World (US versions) and the Japanese Super Mario Collection. Same result on all. When I applied the patch before, (a few years ago) it worked great. What am I doing wrong? Can someone else try this with a copy of their own roms for me and see if they get the same results? Tried re-downloading everything and different versions/ locations for the files and ips patchers as well.

It works for me with the normal (U) version of SMAS... although you need to apply the patch to a headered ROM  (filesize should be 2,097,664 bytes)

Hmm, mine is 2,097,152 bytes. How can I add a header?

I don't know if there's tools to automate it (there probably is, but I don't know what they are).

I just open it in a hex editor and add $200 zeros to the start of the file.

OK, thanks. Got it. Later I will continue try to contact Scripture and see if I can continue his patch. After I finish my NES version of Doki Doki Panic, that is.
