In the Hunt (US) - Free Play Mode Patcher v1.0
patch by KoolFiller.
Original Patching script by Derek Pascarella (ateam)
(Thanks!)
Requires "In the Hunt (USA)" Redump compatible image
Instructions
------------
1. Place the disc image into the "redump_original" folder.
2. Run "apply_patch.bat"
3. Your patched game will be in the "patched" folder
This patch causes the US version of the game to behave like the Japanese version which has "Free Play" while the US release usually only gives you 5 credits.
Technically, the patch doesn't unlock a "Free Play" mode per se. But it causes credits to stop being decremented, and it also makes the HUD in game say FREE PLAY just like the Japanese version, instead of showing credits. So finally, you get the "FREE PLAY" experience in the US version of the game.
The hack works great with my Arcade Soundtrack Patch. If you want you can even take the xdelta patches from there, and drop them in the xdeltas folder here, and patch both hacks at the same time. The FREE PLAY MODE patch doesn't touch CD audio tracks, and the Arcade Soundtrack patcher doesn't touch the data track.
NOTE: With this patch I've officially begun my ai assisted hacking era, sorry. Feels like I've gained superpowers.
Tested all the way through, working perfectly in Beetle Saturn core.
