Issues fixed[edit]

Crash when using mouse[edit]

Information This fix will likely be incorporated into a later patch.

Fix Modify executable file[1]

  1. Find DATA\WLA.BIN in the installation folder, and open it with a Hex editor.
  2. Go to offset 0x5e5
  3. Change 77 1F to EB 1F - this disables a wait loop that could continue infinitely.
