Howdy!

Over the past few years MountainManJed has been applying his technical wizardry to make improvements to the US version of Marvel vs Capcom 2 for Dreamcast.  The changes he has made are:

== 05/23/2020 Update ==
* Character unlocks: All character are unlocked by default. You don't need/want a VMU.
* Fix stage randomization.  Random stage select in vanilla MvC2 doesn't actually use all possible stages: with this update it will.

== 10/04/2021 Update ==
* You can now customize the music for "alternate" versions of stages, such as the different versions of Ship, Desert, and so forth.  See the list below.

== 01/29/2022 Update ==
* Palette Expansion: each character file now stores 16 colors that you can use.  You need the update PL/SPL files in the ZIP for this, so make sure to include those.
* Rogue: now uses her jacket win pose correctly instead of always showing the LP color.
* Cammy: now has a unique jacket per color.


To use these files, select which update revision you want.  Each has their own folder in this ZIP.  Go into the revision folder you want and just copy all the files onto your image.  You can tell what version you have or are using by checking the "Date Modified" on your 1st_read.bin file.

Enjoy!

===More Details===

==Palette Expansion==
Button options are LP, LK, HP, HK, A1+LP, A1+LK, A1+HP, A1+HK, A2+LP, A2+LK, A2+HP, A2+HK, A1+A2+LP, A1+A2+LK, A1+A2+HP, and A1+A2+HK.

Versions 1.76 and later of PalMod can read and edit these if you use PalMod's File : : Load Directory : : MvC2 : : DC option.

Should be easy enough.

==Unique Songs For Alternate Stages==

The stage song file names are now:
	ADX_SELC	Select screen
	ADX_S000	The Pirate Ship Stage
	ADX_S010	Desert
	ADX_S020	Inside the factory
	ADX_S030	Carnival Stage
	ADX_S040	Bridge stage
	ADX_S050	Blue Underground Cave
	ADX_S060	Clock Tower
	ADX_S070	Ice Boat Stage
	ADX_S080	Abyss 1
	ADX_S090	Abyss 2
	ADX_S0A0	Abyss 3
	ADX_S0B0	Training
	ADX_CAPL	Capcom logo during boot
	ADX_CONT	Continue music
	ADX_HERE	Here comes a new challenger
	ADX_MENU	Menu
	ADX_NETW	Networking (Japan only)
	ADX_OPEN	Intro music to the Characters
	ADX_OVER	Game Over
	ADX_RANK	Ranking screen
	ADX_STAF	Credits Screen
	ADX_MENU	Menu Screen
	ADX_WINS	Music after you beat a stage 

	ADX_NSHP	The Pirate Ship Stage (Alternate version)
	ADX_NDST	Desert (Alternate version)
	ADX_NCRN	Carnival Stage (Alternate version)
	ADX_NCAV	Blue Underground Cave (Alternate version)
	ADX_NCLK	Clock Tower (Alternate version)
	ADX_NRFT	Ice Boat Stage (Alternate version)
	ADX_NSWP	Bridge stage (Alternate version) 

All the "new" options are labeled as "Alternate".  Note if you do not include the new "alternate" songs then no music will play for that stage.  For your convenience, you can just copy the existing "alternate" tracks onto your mix.
