I got absolutely sick of every thread on "Can we fix the encounter rate a bit?" turning into

"Oh you're such a noob"

"Games were just like this"

"Hah, you thought that was bad, you should try this..."

"Oh, try this other game instead."

"Hah you can walk TEN spaces? in <shitty old game> you can barely walk 3! And we loved it. 10 miles up and down a hill every day... and we had to suck it out of a damp newspaper"

So here you go. It's much more enjoyable with fewer interruptions. It's easier to remain focused on the story too.

Windows:

Drag your .nes onto the .exe

Linux & Mac OS

DotNET has native support from MS in Linux and Mac.

Install dotnet 3.1 and run the .exe via that (you shouldn't need to recompile).

Why did it have to be an .exe?

Not sure how to deal with the potential for missing headers, or various relocations (fan translations) with a regular patch file. This was safer.

Big love to abyssonym for just randomly dumping the rough offsets in the middle of a forum post!
