Masters '98: Harukanaru Augusta is the second golf title released for the Nintendo 64 and second-to-last in T&E Soft's 9-year series of golf titles set at Augusta National Golf Club.

Gameplay is arcade style. Players can adjust their clubs, stance, and hit position. Pressing A as the swing meter rises sets the height of a swing, and pressing A as close as possible to the center of the red line at the bottom of the meter determines how centered the club strikes the ball.

A localization of the N64 title "Harukanaru Augusta - Masters '98" for a USA audience. All text--menus, course details, messages, and Controller Pak manager--have been translated to English. Voice remains untouched and will continue to be unless somebody happens to know a couple actors willing to have their voices mutilated for free.

Special thanks to Nathan Smith for suggesting this project.

Patching:
Apply the xdelta patch using the similarly named xdelta. The patch will only apply to a ROM in native (big-endian) byte order.

Notes:
Some emulator plugins have trouble displaying the fake water reflections properly, which in the worst case removes the ground. This also applies to the translation patch. Check the emulator and/or plugin's compatibility with the original game.

Please refer to the readme for additional information, such as saving and Controller Pak usage.
