I have edit with hexadecimal editor Super Mario Land 2 parched whit GBColorizer and fix the gliches but the palletes don't display RED color only BLACK, AQUA and WHITE.

Could anybody fix the pallete? please

I have changed 4132 to A0FF in adress 1C6 like a rom original.

Thank you very much.

I fixed this already.

The problem was at the beginning of the stage the game was doing writes that were setting it to run as a 512k rom, colorizer needs the game to be running as 1mbyte. The writes weren't necessary for the game to function so I just removed them.

What's sad is this patch has been around since 2006, I have barely any asm experience, and I managed to fix the bug after learning a little about how this stuff works. In all fairness the bgb emulator debugger is a huge help no way I would have figured it out without that amazing tool
