Hi,

 I have completely overhauled the Brightness Code for Baroque.Now World and Rooms are brighter too and Character Brightness
much improved.If you are interested can you test the Patch ?
Things like is the Game crashing in a certain area or any graphical errors appearing ?

Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance (SLES-50672)
CRC - 4A9D8E01


Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance (SLUS-20035)
CRC - 773A8DAB


Performance improvement for the Dark Alliance 1.

Hi,

Maybe you are interested to test my 1-Hit-Kill Code for "Manhunt (PAL)" ? This is a complicated Code which saves an address on the Stack
and reloads it later.You should test if the Game Crash or freeze anywhere but even if it not crashes you should also check the PCSX2
Message Window that there also no "TLB Miss" Errors.If you can confirm that the Code works successfully i can try to create the Code
for the NTSC Version.You can add the following Code in this Patch.

I beated both PAL and NTSC version of Manhunt with your One Hit Kill Enemies code and next right for both games:

1) The code does not cause freezes, crashes and TLB Miss errors.
2) The code makes companions (tramp and journalist) of the main character are killable in one hit/shot.
3) The сode breaks the last level - "Deliverance":
3.1) With enabled code Piggsy can be defeated by light and heavy attack, not only by multiple execution as needed.
3.1.1) And if kill him by straight blow, then speech audio ("Send him to hell! Go on!") in cutscene where Starkweather sends his last soldiers to kill Cash will be replaced with speech audio ("No more!") from cutscene when wounded Piggsy run to his home.
3.1.2) Also, if kill Piggsy not as conceived by the game, player will not receive a save point in front of the door to Starkweather.
3.1.2) Chainsaw drops from Piggsy killed by light/heavy attack and its possible to equip and use it for passaging through the door to the Piggsy's house, which normally should be opened in cutscene.
3.2) Starkweather momentally dies after one touch of chainsaw. Because of what it is impossible to make execution on him and complete the level and, accordingly, finish the game.

Thanks for Testing.So Tramp and Journalist should not be killed in one hit/shot, right? I couldn't pass the Crane Scene, fortunately you did.
The Explanations are enlightening.

Yes, in normal game they are maybe more tough than main hero even on enhanced difficulty and not dying after catching one pellet of lead.

I could try to fix that but somehow i have to pass the Crane Scene.I have some Manhunt 2 [Uncut] Codes.If you are interested you could
check them too if they cause errors in the Game ? Based on the first Manhunt Game, i have created the One-Hit-Kill-Enemies Code too.
But i have not tested that Code at all.Created few Hours ago.

@ANd93ml

Instead of the "One Hit Kill Enemies"-Code can you test the Patch with these Codes for "Manhunt" ?
Only James Earl Cash has infinite Health ? What about Tramp and Journalist ?
