The patch also works with the various Megaman 2/Rockman 2 hacks, replacing Megaman with Protoman.
Future releases:
In future releases I plan on adding Proto man's whistle intro at the start of every stage as seen in Megaman 9 and 10. I also plan on modifying Protoman's HP's. Making him weaker to certain enemie attacks then Megaman was in the original game.
I'm also working on a full hack using this patch. The hack will feature new levels, graphics, palettes, and I also hope to get new music in there as well.
Beware of the other so-called Protoman patches out there for Mega Man 2. I released version 1.0 of this patch about a year ago and several "hackers" stole it and claimed it as their own. I don't mind it being used, thats why I made it. Just credit me if you do make a hack with it, as I'd also like to play your hack. I do plan on updating this patch down the road... so check at Rom Hacking dot net for future releases.
