So… What changes can you expect out of MaternalBound Redux in addition to the ones found in the original MaternalBound?
The changelog for this project is REALLY extensive, so it is suggested to go over the GitHub page for the project to read the main list of changes, since there are a ton of them, even under the hood.
- Instructions
Grab the .zip file and use either the IPS or BPS patches into your clean EarthBound ROM with either Lunar IPS, FLIPS or by using Romhacking’s Online ROM Patcher. Additionally, the hack can be patched by using the EarthBound Patcher to patch the EBP file into a clean EarthBound ROM.
If you want to use the hack with MSU-1, grab the PCM pack released alongside this hack from the Zeldix page at the beginning of this page, or from the following link: https://archive.org/details/earthbound-msu-1-pack (with a mirror link from Zeldix.net here: https://app.box.com/s/fkmjx61w4m7xom1kmir5zk7xv6jx9u8f )
Simply rename your ROM to “eb_msu1.smc” and place it in the same folder as all the .pcm/.msu files. You need to use Snes9x v1.54 or above in order for the MSU-1 hack to work.
