Undeadline: Genjuuki
                         English Translation Patch




 History
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

071031 Initial release




 Overview
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a translation patch for the X68000 game "Undeadline: Genjuuki",
which was developed by T&E Soft.




 Applying the Patch
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hopefully included with this document is a patch file in the IPS format.
You can use any program that supports that file format to apply this
translation patch to your disk image.

Undeadline: Genjuuki is a three-disk game. The program disk must be present
in the first drive at all times -- this is the disk that the patch is for.




 Playing the Game
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once you've patched the system disk, simply load it up in your favorite
X68000 emulator or write it to a floppy disk to use on a real X68000
system. The other disks will need to be inserted into the second drive
during gameplay depending on the stage being played.

To save the high scores, insert a disk into the second floppy drive and
select the save option in the configuration menu. Loading the scores is
accomplished the same basic way.




 Q & A
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: This patch doesn't work! What do I do?

A: Try asking yourself whether you really need the patched version. The game
   is fully playable without it. You may miss out on some enjoyment, but due
   to the inherent difficulties involved with disk images, it may not be
   worth your time and effort to try to get it working.




 Changes
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Autofire enabled by default
Minor changes to English text
Opening and credits translated and timing adjusted




 Hacking Notes
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the first X68000 translation utilizing an expanded executable.
All relocations, including for the patches, are done by a bit of stub code
placed in front of the original.

It uses lots of multi-layered dynamic patching, which got confusing. Some of
it was unnecessary and I would caution against using that technique if it
can be avoided, even though it simplifies other things. The credits were
patched normally, taking advantage of string optimizations to keep the size
in range.
