About this project

The equipment "Bracers6" only offered 4 defense points, therefore making it identical to "Bracers4". Everything indicates that there is an oversight and that "Bracers6" should give 6 defense points.

This patch remedies this and gives it 6 defense points, it is a one byte change.

The patch is also compatible with the English translation of the game, but not with the official US
version.
