| Description: | This patch makes the titlescreen fade to black when bringing up the file select menu, along with the music if desired (note that not all songs are compatible with it like the vanilla title screen theme). I originally made this for Morton's Empire because I thought it looked cool but looking back, it's not really cool. Note that this patch is not compatible with the vanilla credits. Changelog: v1.0: Initial release v1.1: Remoderation update incl. fixing reapplying fade when going from player select / file delete to file select. |

During moderation, the file has been updated again to fix more issues that were present in the original:
-Pressing a button before the title screen fully loads to bring the file selection faster (before sprites appear and the title movie plays) would make the game play a pause SFX (which mutes music) and won't play the cinematic until the button is pressed again, which make the screen fade and the file select to appear.
-Another bug was related to the fade speed and frame counter. If fade speed is was set very slow, pressing the button to fade the screen would simply blink the sprites for a moment, before resuming the movie, since it checked for a specific point when you were able to fade it. Now you can press the button at any point and it should fade correctly.
-The music will now restore itself properly after backing out of the file selection.
The patch is now far more functional than it was originally.
I was trouble with my rom freezing/crashing right after you make a selection here. I discovered the issue was that I was editing C7 (the title screen level) after applying the patch. This was solved by simply editing the level before applying it, or reapplying the patch after edits to C7.
[Edit:] Again, with the same caveats as above: I was having trouble with the music fade being out of sync with the visual fade. I changed LDA #$FE to LDA #$FF in the TitleScreenBlackout section, and it helped a lot.
