README for New Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels

------------------------------------------------

1. The Game

This hack is a remake of Super Mario Bros. and
Super Mario Bros. 2 (J), also known as the lost
levels outside Japan (in most countries).

This game is meant to have high difficulty and
it would requite a lot of skill to defeat. Try
to find all the star coins, each hidden in hard
areas, and some in simple. Finding every star
coin is next to impossible.

Also please don't use cheats, I don't like them.

------------------------------------------------

2. How to patch

Get a ROM of New Super Mario Bros. (U) How?
                               Dump it yourself.

Everything else is in the package, patcher too.
However, you need Microsoft .NET Framework 2 or
higher to use it.

Patching steps:
1. Get your ROM (has to be US)

2. Place the ROM in the same directory as the
package.

3. Open up xdeltaUI.exe

4. Remember, we want to patch our rom, so we
have to click on the tab "Apply Patch" (It
should be marked in the default setting)

5. You'll see 3 empty boxes with 3 buttons to
the right from each of them. (1. box - Patch
2. box - Source File, 3. box - Output File)

6. Click on the first button "Open" right of the
"Patch"-box!! A new window will open!

7. Search for my patch and double click.

8. Now to the second button, click "Open" right
of the "Source File"-box and search for the
"clean, not trimmed" ROM!

Remember: Only the [U]-version will work!

9. And at last, the third button! Click on "..."
right of the "Target File"-box and choose a
place on your disk to save the patched ROM!!

Your game now is successfully patched!
