Contra: Hard Corps: Contra Hard Corps: Stationary Fire+

This small patch adds a new way to switch shot modes by simply holding down
the MODE button on a 6-button controller. Holding the button down switches to
stationary aiming while firing (Shot II), releasing it returns you to normal (Shot I)
similar to how the R button works in Contra 3 on SNES.

There are 3 IPS files, one for each region. The USA version of the patch is compatible with the MIJET Enhancement hack, MrNemesis' Hit Points Restoration Hack (combined with the MIJET hack or alone) and the IT.GAMER Ultra Hack 2.0.

Contra Hard Corps Stationary Fire+ by DUSTINODELLOFFICIAL

This small patch adds a new way to switch shot modes by simply holding down
the MODE button on a 6-button controller. Holding the button down switches to
stationary aiming while firing (Shot II), releasing it returns you to normal (Shot I)
similar to how the R button works in Contra 3 on SNES. This is optimal for
flash cart users with an original style Sega 6 button where MODE is on the top
right, or emulator users that can map MODE to the R trigger.
The regular toggle methods of holding B and pressing A, or pressing X/Y/Z also
still work as well. Note that pressing MODE will override the toggle, though.
The patch also completely bypasses the checksum (boots up faster, as well as
allowing for compatibility with other hacks).

Included are patches for the USA, Japanese & PAL (Probotector) versions.

The USA version of the patch was designed to work with the original unaltered
ROM, MIJET's Enhancement Hack, MrNemesis' Hit Points Restoration Hack (by
itself and combined with the MIJET hack) and the IT.GAMER Ultra Hack 2.0.
The MIJET + Hit Point Restore + this hack makes a pretty great version of Contra!
The IT.GAMER hack is already too easy and this'll just make it easier...
