Description:
The Japanese version of Mega Man 4 has an unused tile in the title screen graphics that perfectly fits into the black space at the bottom corner of the helmet’s ear. This patch uses this tile for its intended purpose.
This patch also fixes some regressions and probable mistakes:
- Correct Roll’s face palette when the screen turns sepia (part of her skin was eye-colored)
- For the ending, add a pixel of hair by Mega Man’s neck (match Mega Man 2)
- Restore part of Mega Man’s shoulder for his running animation (match Mega Man 1 and 2)
- Layer Mega Man’s face so that it is under his shoulder for his running animation (match Mega Man 1 and 2)
- Fix Rush’s menu animation so his back leg bends instead of using a duplicate tile of his standing leg (match Mega Man 3)

Nice Touches!
Reviewed By: Pethronos on 09 Jan 2021Nice touches here and there :D
Megaman 4 is relatively underrated, and it is in fact full of great ideas and better music.
Fixes like this are always welcome! It’d be perfect a fully compatible patch with Japanese Title Screen hack.
