You have to download PPF-O-Matic and must read the game with Cdrwin into your PC, so you have a .bin file. Normaly patches are .ppf files so you use the PP-O-Matic to patch it into the .bin file.

Thanx Dude! it's the way i'm going to follow. but the game won't be an auto selfboot anymore? with my cd rwin version (3.8D) i can't copy a multissession cd...
don't care, i have a great cd loader....
thanx

If you want to patch already seldboot games it is a little different. Then you have to read only the data sectors. On non-selfboot games it is easier.
try it boy 8) :-p :-D
