Installation

You need an unmodified ISO file of the original Japanese release of Zettai Zetsumei Toshi 3.

This patch is distributed as a xdelta file so you need a way to apply this patch to the unmodified ISO.

If you haven't used xdelta before it is recommended using a simple gui application:

• For Windows you can use xdelta UI, which also works well on Linux using Wine.
• For macOS there's MultiPatch.

How to apply the patch:

• Select the xdelta file as the patch file and the original ISO as the source file, choose a name for the output file and start the patching process.
• Please note that this might take a few minutes and the application might look frozen but just wait a while and you should get a message that the file was patched successfully.
• To make sure everything worked as expected you can compare the patched ISO with the checksums in the table.

The game is playable without any problems on PPSSPP, on the PSVita using Adrenaline and of course on a modded PSP.
