About
-----
After getting out SD2 (known here as "Secret of Mana" - a stupid translation,
it actually is "Legend of the Holy Sword") for some patch again and after
playing some, I thought, "Why not do the same here as I already did with SD3?"
So I went and started to look up all the palette info 'n' stuff neccessary for
this. Here's how far I got by now:

- all three characters look better now, including all conditions:
  - palette animation during charging up (while the counter counts to 100%)
  - charging complete (when it goes "ping")
  - poisoned
- the first weapons

How to use
----------
Use IpsWin, which you can d/l from my homepage (see Url above).
Start IpsWin, browse for your Rom (e.g. 'SoMana.swc') under "File to patch",
browse for 'SD2improvement.ips' under "IPS patch to use" and click on 'Apply'.

It works with the English version, but should work with the Japanese version as
well, and can be applied over previous versions of this hack.

NOTE: If you load from a savegame, you won't have the new colors right away.
===== DON'T PANIC! Just exit the current screen, and you will have the new
      colors. If you load from a battery save (on the start screen with
      'Continue'), you'll have the new colors immediately.
