The program will then expect an identically named. Even if you bypass the checksum, the file will usually be corrupt or fail to load, as the data written from the patch goes to the wrong place in the file. ups file in the working directory, you can specify which you want to use.


UPS is completely future proof in that regard. Love Dark/Light Themes and Hell Run Games, this is for you. Hacks Metroid FreezeFlame 2: Twisted Dimensions. Translations Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere. But thanks to a condensed pointer encoding method, the file size can be infinite. One of the most extensive translation projects for Playstation. The difficulty of implementing it is equal to IPS (it has trickier pointers, but no RLE magic.) The spec for UPS supports any file size, though the binary is currently limited to 4GB files due to libc limitations.

It is designed to be a direct replacement for IPS. The goal of UPS is different from NINJA / xdelta / etc.
