It was brought to my attention that the Anti-Fix extra patch is ever so slightly crashy.
Basically a use-the-Relics-menu-at-your-own-peril kind of situation.
Interestingly, the bug has been present since the original Anti-Fix patch, now almost a year ago.
I mean, the patch does promise to leave the game in a more broken state, so...
Anyway, I whipped up an addendum that fixes the issue -- see attachment ROSE_v1.08_AntiFix-Fix.zip (also in the OP).
The Anti-Fix fix applies on top of the Anti-Fix for v1.04 - v1.08. (Are we having fun yet?)
The lesson of the day is:
If you have three totally compatible and unrelated patches, A, B, & C,
...And you apply patches A & B to your vanilla rom...
...And then you use that rom to create a combined A/B anti-patch in LunarIPS...
The resulting A/B anti-patch is NOT guaranteed to be compatible with patch C.
(That is, if you have two modified sections of data separated by just a few unmodified bytes, LunarIPS will ignore the gap and treat the whole thing as one section.)
