|How to install|
----------------

First you need the original american(U) rom of Metroid Zero Mission, then some program that
can apply the .ips patch to it - like ipsXP for example. Instructions on how to use those
can be found in the respective documentation for these programs.

WARNING: Due to my implementation of new ASM routines, this hack may not work with some
		 Emulators! If your game freezes spontaneously upon collecting an upgrade, that
		 may be the cause.



----------------------------
|Major changes and features|
----------------------------

- most areas have been reconstructed while generally having the same or a similar map than
  the original game; I would say Ridley, Kraid and Chozodia have the most changes,
  Tourian the less
- Chozo hint statues no longer exist at all
- Gravity Suit won't be needed to start the Ridley fight
- Missiles can damage Black Space Pirates
- most major upgrade locations and requirements where changed, minor upgrades are hidden in
  different places as well
- in particular Unknown Items and the Power Grip aren't needed and Screw Attack comes very
  late
- like in the original Metroid, only one of the Ice and Wave (and later Plasma) Beams can
  be equipped at once; collecting a certain other powerup may will allow that though
- try looking for new sequence breaks as well; skipping Power Grip may very well be worth
  the trouble... getting Ice Beam won't be a cakewalk either...
- most enemies (including bosses) have higher HP and attack while dropping way less stuff
- there are other surprises, but I won't spoil them here



--------------------------
|Default item progression|
--------------------------

If you find yourself stuck in the game, most of the time the answer is to just look around.
For those who want to find out which item they need next, I've included the default progression
(= no sequence breaks) here.

*DON'T READ IF YOU DON'T WANT SPOILERS!*


Crateria - Morph Ball
Brinstar - Missile
Brinstar - Bomb
Crateria - Power Grip (optional)
Norfair - Long Beam (optional)

[Kraid - Speed Booster]
[Brinstar - High Jump Boots (optional)]

 or
[Ridley - Super Missile]
[Norfair - Wave Beam (optional)]

Kraid - Varia Suit (optional)
[Items from Kraid/ Ridley (whichever you didn't get first)]

Chozodia - Ice Beam

(Mother Brain -> Zero Suit)
(Zero Suit -> Fully Powered Suit)
various - Power Bomb (optional)
various - Unknown Items (optional)
Norfair - Charge Beam (optional, lets you combine beam weapons)
(need either Plasma Beam or many Missiles/ Super Missiles)
(Mecha Ridley -> End)



------------------------------------
|Optional paths and Sequence Breaks|
------------------------------------

As with the original Zero Mission, there are some optional paths and possibilities to
sequence break, but generally these won't be easy to find. If you have trouble finding
them, use Power Bombs as they will reveal most secret passages.



Also I challenge you to find early Power Bombs, as well as another Powerup you can get with them.

Early Power Bombs are very well hidden and you will need to show considerable attention to detail
as well as deducing skills to find them.
That being said, the path to them doesn't decline ingame logic. You won't need to search for some
random warp across the map or an extra expansion that isn't included in the normal 100% item
collection.



-------------------------
|Missile/ health farming|
-------------------------

Try farming those respawning enemies that jump out of the acid/ lava/ pipes if you trun low on
ammo. If your beam is still weak, try using bombs - they will make farming a whole lot easier...



-------------------------
