PATCH NOTES +

1. 4 additional lines of text added.
2. Modification of text on non-scrolling text to accommodate CRT overscan.
3. This fix will require further changes to graphics on certain screens to accommodate the text shift.
4. Further changes are currently in R&D concerning scrolling text screens.  

PATCH NOTES

1. Currently, 97.5% percent of written text within the game has been translated and replaced.
2. The only text that remains is that concerning the “2 Player” mode only accessible via the Saturn Link Cable. I, The SSG, do not have access to this cable at the moment, so I cannot ensure text is implemented properly.
3. Japanese that appears on screen outside of the chat boxes are not injected text, but rather images. This along with English audio, will be handled during the Beta phase of this project. 
4. Please report any issues you may come across in the teams discord server. https://discord.gg/HY5hbr9H This could include graphical issues with text (if you see text that looks like a bunch of squished up boxes, then that is untranslated text.), sound issues, or crashes.
5. While we are happy to release this alpha build for community testing, we ask that you do not distribute this build of the game. This includes pre-patched versions of the game. The Gungriffon II Localization Team does not in any way endorse pre-patched versions of the game, and we ask that you report them to us immediately.
6. Suit up, WW3 isn’t gonna fight itself! 



HOW TO APPLY THE PATCH

I: What you’ll need:

1. Knight0fDragon’s Sega Saturn Patcher inclucded in this file. This is a "Special Console Build", not a standard release. 
2. A disc image of Gungriffon II (BIN/CUE). This must be a multi-track copy! There are images floating around the net that have only a single .bin and a single .cue file. Those image types will not work. If you have a copy of the game, you can rip your own image using CD mounting software like ImgBurn. (This is the best and only way the team recommends.)
3. The Gungriffon II alpha v.0.97 English Localization patch file (.SSP) included in this package.

II: How to apply the patch:

1. Open the Sega Saturn Patcher.
2. Click “Select Saturn Game” > “CD Image””
3. Select your Gungriffon II CUE file. 
4. Make sure the “Separate Track Files(If applicable).” box is clicked at the bottom right.
5. Click the “+ Game Patch (SSP)” button on the far right.
6. Select the “Gungriffon II English Localization Patch alpha v.0.97”(.SSP) file.
7. Click “Build Image.” This will bring up a “Save As” dialogue box. Choose a destination for the new, patched version of the game, and click “Save.” 
8. If everything worked, the patcher should give you a message saying "Success! CD Image successfully created." You are now ready to fight for your life on the fields of WW3 Pilot!
