How do i use Binary Patches?
« on: November 18, 2012, 12:12:16 pm »

From what I have found so far, this is the binary patch that fixes the long patrol duty bug:

Allow civilians to recover from long patrol duty:
0AEB592 : 0F 85 -> 90 E9
0AEBFA9 : 8D B4 26 00 00 00 00 -> 0F 84 6B 02 00 00 90

Allow soldiers to recover from long patrol duty while Training:
0D9E338 : C0 59 2D -> 20 37 CB


How do i use this?

Open DF with your favorite hex editor.

The number before the colon is the line number. Then change the set of numbers before the -> to the numbers after it.
