****************************

I was looking around RHDN one day and saw J2E's patch for Venus Senki which was marked "incomplete".  Well, I was bored and wanted to finish what was started and try to fix any errors left by the original team.

Patching Instructions:

This addendum patch comes in four flavors...

Venus Wars - Back the City (addendum).ips
--This patch requires a prepatched ROm that already have J2E's patch applied (IPS format)
Venus Wars - Back the City (addendum).bps
--This patch requires a prepatched ROm that already have J2E's patch applied (BPS format)
Venus Wars - Back the City (full patch).ips
--This patch requires and clean an unaltered Venus Senki ROM (IPS format)
Venus Wars - Back the City (full patch).ips
--This patch requires and clean an unaltered Venus Senki ROM (BPS format)

I recommend using Lunar IPS to apply the IPS patches.  Flips can be used to apply either IPS or BPS patches.

If your rom has NOT been altered, use either the IPS or BPS (not both) to the ROM with the following hashes...

File SHA-1: A63592ECF9CF6BE7270DD7B315B718F6FD3A2721
File CRC32: 7038D60A
ROM SHA-1: 3954B966C85FEE05E15DB443F00B7816D565BF21
ROM CRC32: 1D8BF724

If your rom has J2E's translation patch already applied, use either IPS or BPS (not both) to the ROM with the following hashes...

File SHA-1: 57A70F9868956697A7D182AB14403B089511CFD5
File CRC32: E44BCAF4
ROM SHA-1: 68F0911CBFB8AA1E30D349CEF6DEC7C327454697
ROM CRC32: 89F8EBDA

In the end, the patched ROM will have the following hashes...

File SHA-1: 072D7434D6DBF06D6473D4B19F750030AC33FD4D
File CRC32: 6B477869
ROM SHA-1: D8109D84BF3DDB1B47414C5B64991FFB35F6F272
ROM CRC32: 6F45947

what changes have been done:

A new font has been use for all the game's text
Password screen has been fully hacked, and English letters can be used to input passwords
Ending text has been fully translated
