Patch for Master Elite

The Master enhanced version of Elite wants to use sideways RAM bank #6. Unfortunately GoMMC is in there, and can't be moved. Fortunately it's quite easy to patch the Master version of Elite to use sideways RAM bank #4 instead. Refer to the instructions below.

- Download the disc image here. Unpack 'Elite.img'.
- Download my ready-made patch program here, unpack, place 'Elite.img' in the same directory as 'patch.exe', and run patch.exe.
- Or, alternatively, if you so desire, change the following bytes in 'Elite.img' by hand (e.g. with a hex editor) :

Offset 0x192AD (is 0x06, becomes 0x04)
Offset 0x192B6 (is 0x06, becomes 0x04)
Offset 0x192E5 (is 0x36, becomes 0x34)
Offset 0x1932F (is 0x06, becomes 0x04)
Offset 0x19338 (is 0x06, becomes 0x04)
Offset 0x1D971 (is 0x06, becomes 0x04)

Note that you do not need to patch the Elite disk image if you performed the modifications described under 'Regaining use of sideways RAM banks 6+7' (see ' Installation guide').
