Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3: Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 (Cartridge Rumble Patch) openFPGA-GBA hackfix Gameboy Advance

This hackfix is meant to be applied on top of the latest version of djedditt’s https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/6234/ to allow it to function on openFPGA-GBA core for the Analogue Pocket.

This patch simply modifies the header so that the game id matches Drill Dozer’s and also updates the header checksum to ensure a successful boot. A similar hackfix was included in djedditt’s https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/8027/, so if he decides to include this hackfix in the future this separate addendum will no longer be needed. Hopefully the makers of the openFPGA-GBA core will release an update making all of these kinds of hackfixes unnecessary.

WARNING
================================
Intended exclusively for those with an Analogue Pocket running the openFPGA-GBA core with a DS Rumble Pak inserted in the cartridge slot! This hackfix alters the ROM header data, which could have various unintended consequences, such as causing the game to be incorrectly identified in certain systems or interfering with the functionality of save states. It's a quick-and-dirty hack, not a permanent solution. Use at your own risk until a more robust fix is available from the openFPGA-GBA core developer.


USAGE
================================
To apply this hackfix:

- Download the latest version of the "Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 (Cartridge Rumble Patch)" patch here:
https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/6234/
