#Policenauts english rom Patch

Now using MultiPatch is pretty self explanatory, point it to the location of the first patch file, the '.xdt' extension needs to be changed to '.delta' in order for MultiPatch to be able to recognize the file. I have MultiPatch as an attachment, 32 & 64 bit.Įxtract it, 'policenauts_patch1.xdt' & 'policenauts_patch2.xdt' are in side, these are the patch files. You can use a free program called MultiPatch. You will need to use a different patching method if you are using a Mac. Now if your going to be playing Policenauts on the real PlayStation hardware then skip to step 9, if your going to be emulating it then continue to step 4. There are now two new ISO's in the folder 'Policenauts_English1' and 'Policenauts_English2' these are the English ISO's! The first ISO should now be 714 MB (748,929,024 bytes) and second ISO should be 585 MB (613,826,560 bytes) on your hard drive. Once you have started the program press any key and it will start patching the ISO's into English!Īfter it's done the folder should look like this. Now click on the 'patch' batch file or if you have an athlon cpu click on the 'patch-athlon-cpu' batch file. Now your patch folder should look like this. Put the Xdelta file into the folder where the patch is, make sure you leave the name as xdelta3.0u.x86-32.

This is essentially the tool the patch will use to insert the English text. Before you start the patch batch file you need to get a program called Xdelta. Now extract it and put the ISO's you made into the folder where the patch is located. If your using Snow Leopard on your Mac the first ISO should be 748,9mb (748,928,544 bytes) and second should be 613,8mb (613,822,608 bytes), the reason for this is because Snow Leopard changes the way file sizes are calculated. The ISO size for disk 1 should be 713 MB (747,753,472 bytes) and for disk 2 it should be 584 MB (612,909,056 bytes).
