PS2 PAL TO NTSC VIDEO MODE CHANGER WITH Y-FIX

V1.0 BETA - 6 October, 2003
Coding by JayteeMaster

Hello, PS2 users:

I write this program to allow you to play your PAL games 
in color and with the screen centered!

Some programs, like ADR patcher, already allowed you to patch 
your game from PAL from NTSC. But the screen was not centered!

Most of the times you had to search for a specific patch.
No any more, I hope!
But if you find one like from ps2chimps i recommend you to use it instead.

Some PAL games have already built in screen centering. If you know 
this is advance you may skip this pacther and use instead the ADR patcher for converting only from PAL to NTSC. But remember that 
sometimes the maximum screen offset is to small for you to shift up the picture. So you might enjoy to use this patcher.

The patching engine is based on my PS2 NTSC TO PAL VIDEO MODE CHANGER WITH Y-FIX which 
has a very high successful patching rate.

Support ISO and BIN CD/DVD PS2 images and single ELF files as well.

Attention:
	Case 1) This program will modify the ELF file.
		BACKUP THE ELF FILE FIRST, PLEASE.
	Case 2) For CD/DVD PS2 images the ELF file is backuped automatically.


USAGE:
	Click on 'Browse' and then choose an ELF file or a CD/DVD PS2 image.
	Select the amount of offset to shift the screen up.
	Click on 'Patch File' and read the text output.


The program will first try to change the video mode from PAL to NTSC.
It will indicate you if found any locations to patch, if the ELF is 
already patched and the number of locations to patch.
Then it will try to patch the screen Y position. It will indicate you if
can not find any patch locations or if can not patch the locations found.

IF YOUR ELF FILE IS RELEASED BY PARADOX OR KALISTO THIS PROGRAM MAY HAVE NO EFECT! - usually those games have a intro screen or  a P/N selector (The original game code usually is compressed) - if not, they probably are not compressed.

BUT DO NOT WORRY! THE PROGRAM AUTODETECTS COMPRESSED ELF FILES.

Please report any bugs or suggestions to jayteemaster2003@yahoo.com.br
Also, I would appreciate if you send me some fast FTPs with PS2 rips.




Enjoy your games,
JayteeMaster.
