  BubbleGum Crash Translation patch 1.0
  ======================================
  
    
    BubbleGum Crash:
    ================
    
               The game takes place after the BubbleGum Crisis series. You start off,
              as Nene, investigating a series of bank robbery incidents only to find
              things are not as they seem...
               
               The game is played through a pick and click "digital comic" interface,
              requiring gathering clues and items and pestering... I mean interrogating
              anyone who might be suspicious or otherwise! 


    
    What do I need?
    ===============

               You'll need this IPS patch, the original ROM file, and an IPS capable
              patching program. 
              
               The ROM must have the appropriate header before patching (though it's
              unlikely any headerless ROM images of BGC are floating around out there).
              For IPS patch programs on windows systems, ipsxp is easy to use. If you
              can't find a working site for ipsxp, you can find a copy at www.pcedev.net
              under utilities.



   Known Issues:
   =============

               There are two known issues that are from the original game. The first
              issue is when you talk to the boy & girl at the very beginning. If you
              use the get option first before questioning or taking to the kids first,
              the game gets "stuck" in that screen. 
              
               The other is a *minor* issue. If you go into continue screen from the
              title screen, selecting 'exit' does not exit the screen. You have to
              either load or reset the game. This isn't a ROM issue. Multiple copies
              of the HuCard have been tested and have the exact same issues.
