The patch is distributed in xdelta format. You can apply the patch with either xdelta UI (Win), Delta Patcher (Win/Linux) or MultiPatch (macOS).
Note:
- Applying the patch changes the game ID from UCES-00001 to WPSE-02197. This makes base game saves from pervious versions incompatible.
- Version 5.2A removes the sun lens flare effect, which is inaccurately rendered on PPSSPP (always visible / flickering). This version is intended for use with PPSSPP, since the effect is correct on real hardware.
