The patch is in xDelta format, to apply the patch:

• Download and extract xdelta UI.
• Run xdeltaUI (not the file simply named xdelta).
• For "Patch", choose the MedusaPatch.xdelta file.
• "Source" should be your copy of the ROM, as an .nds filetype.
• Finally, set your output destination.
• Important - the output file any name you'd like, but be sure to add '.nds' to the end, or it will not work (e.g. MedusaPatched.nds)
• Hit patch, and you're good to go.

ROM dump compatibility:

• This patch is designed to work with a 100% correctly dumped ROM (CRC: 151439BC).
• If your ROM is a bad dump (CRC: 632A6D55), you can apply the "bad_to_good.xdelta" patch before applying the translation patch by following the guide above.

Compatibility

Play this file on an emulator such as DeSmuME, or use a flashcart to play it on any member of the NDS family.

If playing this game on an emulator, you may notice an issue where certain images are obstructed by a solid pink color. This is an emulator bug which happens even with the unpatched game, but does not happen on real hardware. We recommend updating to the latest build of DeSmuME.
