the patch is a simple batch file for windows, but i can't get it to work in my windows emulator via mac (i'm using a stripped-down version of XP)
i found the rom on archive.org, assuming it should work fine if anyone is willing to try to patch this game and hopefully share the patched file

thanks
UPDATE: found this site where i downloaded a pre-patched bin/cue of the game i was looking for, plus tons of others on various consoles!
