Hey everyone,

It's been about a month since we first officially rolled out sh2_luck's Cutscene Skip patch and implemented the categories for it on the leaderboard. During this time, sh2_luck has been working hard on optimizing the patch, fixing bugs, and making it an easier and smoother experience for us all to use.

In doing so, Luck has turned the patch into an All-in-one .ELF file, meaning we no longer need to use Cheat Device, .pnach files, or any sort of cheat codes directly on our end. Once the .ELF file has been booted, this .ELF can detect which version of KH1 you are attempting to play (1-E, 1-J, or 1-FM), and automatically boot the game with the patches applied.

In addition to the normal Disc support, OPL Support is included in the patch, allowing for the patch to be played on HDD for fast loading times. OPL has been added as a console variable on the leaderboards as well.

Here is the updated Installation Tutorial and Video Demonstration of the patch and its features. All downloads can be found in the video description and in the Resources tab of the leaderboard page.
