Nice to find you here.
I also did my own combined patch last year. I talked to you already on NFSCars.
I remember I told you to delete one file because I thought it is redundant, it had the same size as original file. Reason is I wanted this patch to really be as clean as possible, because IPLounge's patches were a real mess. That's why it took me my whole summer vacation and then some to study every single file.
But when I compared in HEX editor I realized it actually was modified, but you weren't on the forum since.
Anyway, it's been so long, I have to check things again.
Also since then I came a long way, that means I have every NFS Redump image, if anyone wants.
