However, the letterbox remains during certain boss encounters using mode-7 graphics to prevent display issues. It is compatible with English and other translated ROMs as well as the original Japanese version.
Hack to remove the letterbox / black border that is drawn at the top and bottom of the screen during gameplay. It was added by the developer to allow more processes to be carried out without slowdown.

This patch works with the English translation, with any other translated version, e.g. Spanish or Portuguese translation and with the original Japanese ROM.

About
-----
The letterbox / black border is drawn at the top and bottom of the screen. It was
added by the developer to allow more processes to be carried out without slowdown.
The first game in the Magical Quest series didn't have a letterbox, and it looks much
better not having a black border covering parts of the stage.
In this hack, the letterbox is still enabled during some boss fights that use mode-7
as otherwise the boss or mode-7 background will not appear.
------
Issues
