A small text hack to repair a few issues in the original game that were simple to fix:
[list]
Might and Magic: Secret of the Inner Sanctum (NES) "Fixer" Patch v1.0
by: Reiska
Changelog:
* Clerics had two spells called "CURE1"; I've changed the one in the 2nd spell
level (Cure Wounds on computer versions) to "CURE2"
* "MANGORADRA" enemies are now more correctly called "MANDRAGORA"
* "BRONTASAURUS" corrected to "BRONTOSAURUS", though I think this error was the
fault of NWC, not the translators for this version
* Changed a few stat abbreviations: MIG -> MGT, SPE -> SPD
* I left ACC as-is because I think it's a better abbreviation than the computer
versions' "ACY"
* I did not change MP to SP either, my goal is not to change the 'flavor' of
this port.
* Corrects all instances of "Barn" to "Varn"
Known Issues:
* The swapped signs in Dusk are still messed up; I don't know how to repoint
them. (The Forbidden Crypt erroneously has the House Geist sign, and vice
versa.)
* Given NES version mechanical changes, some text in-game may be wrong and I
haven't gone through to correct any of this.
Instructions:
