15. Level 3 charge is changed into two level 3 charge shots when fully charged with the arm upgrade(level 1 when it’s not fully charged)

16. Changed the “X” in X.Buster to P.Buster in the menu (However, this changed the “X” in EXIT making it spell EPIT)

Planned Features:

Editing the wire frame model of X from the intro cut scene (if that’s possible)

KNOWN BUGS:

If the arm upgrade is fully charged, fired the second charge shot while sliding down a wall, it’ll cancel it if the shot button is pressed fast. The second charge shot can still be fired, but only after the first one is fired first.

Another known bug with the arm upgrade takes place while sliding down a wall. If un-fully charged shots are fired while sliding down a wall, the first and second shots will be level 2 and 3.

It’s nothing major but after getting the helmet upgrade, the top of Protoman’s helmet will shift a little while moving. This is due to the way that the top part of the upgraded helmet graphics are set up. It’s also noticeable when he does his victory pose.

Instructions:

To patch this, a copy of this file is required: Mega Man X 2 (U) [!].smc, and Lunar IPS or any other program, but the program that would be most recommend is flips to patch this with.

And make sure it’s unheadered.
