Wardner/Wardner no Mori Special IPS patch
21th April 2016

==Purpose of the patch==
Change the game's colors so it looks closer to the arcade version. 

==Usage==
One patch for each region is included.
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==
-This was one of my first game modifications, finally released and also ported to the NTSC-U version.
-The game could heavily profit from a graphics uncompressor, so the sprites, backgrounds etc. can also receive a makeover. Many colors have been wrongly indexed, resulting in graphics that can't be fixed by a simple color edit. Please contact me on the forums if you can write such a decompressor. I'm be willing to further improve this game.
-Furthermore the score bug (timer resets in castle stage when talking to the witch, allows to infinitely farm enemies for score) needs to be fixed
-The game contains plenty of palettes that are never used ingame.

==legal stuff==
Do whatever you want with these files, it's just a hobby. Feel free to further improve and resubmit.
