Megagames doesn't refresh its patches list. I've send some patches recently, but they didn't put them on their site.

You can't make a generic patch for all images of a single game.
This is how PPF patches work : they specify the place, the number of bytes to change and the new bytes to write. There's also a control on your file's length (that's why you sometimes get a message "file size different from original, patch anyway ?") and there could be a control on the very first bytes in the file.
Since each image is different from a burning program to another, there's no way to specify a static place for the bytes to patch since they can be at different place from an image to another...

I wrote a program that looks for specific patterns and can then patch them, but I made it very generic. I could add this patch, but my proggy is already VERY SLOW (it scan all the image, looking for loads of data).

Lots of people are looking for a 60 Hz patch for Sega Rally 2. I haven't seen one yet.

Heureux de voir que je ne suis pas le seul francais ici.
Je pensais a un projet pour lister tous les patches PAL / 60 Hz pour tous les jeux. Tu as du temps libre ?
