Midway Arcade Treasure Deluxe Edition update patches

[GonnaHaveMeSumFun]

Any idea if the iso currenlty available here at Adventure Legens is pre-patched or include any of the patch updates released by Midway themselves?

Because the site' original URL for those patch updates no longer work:

Code: Select all

http://data.midwayarcade.com/pc_patches/MAT/Mat2Music.exe

Code: Select all

http://data.midwayarcade.com/pc_patches/MAT/Mat2mkPatch.exe

I did find the first patch that Midway had released and the first patch only addressed the lack music issues.

I had found it here:

Code: Select all

http://www.ag.ru/games/midway-arcade-treasures-deluxe-edition/patches/15954

, in case if anyone is interested.

However, I was unable to locate the second patch "Mat2mkPatch.exe" anywhere else at this time, so maybe I might have to ask around on various MK fansites if no one has it here.

The following patch has been developed to enable the Dan Forden "Toasty!" - Smoke Fight encounter in Mortal Kombat 2, on the Midway Arcade Treasures Deluxe Edition for the PC. The second patch just fixes and address the inability to Fight Smoke using the Down+Start code as that pauses the game and brings up the in-game pause menu, and the inability to use the Random Select code from the Character Select screen.

This was the description on the now defunct official site:

Code: Select all

"Download the Patch to your PC and then double click the patch file (Mat2mkPatch.exe). The patch will make the updates to your installed game that will enable both the Smoke Fight Easter Egg, as well as the random select feature from the character select screen.

The opportunity to fight with Smoke was a hidden Easter Egg in the original arcade release. It was also largely dependent on luck, timing, and some skill. We are glad to be able to bring this hidden content to the PC gamers. Thank you all for your comments, patience, and continued interest in our Mortal Kombat games. 

Now get out there and FINISH HIM!"

So if anyone actually knows anything about it and has it here, much appreciate it, thanks.

Surprisingly the web archives actually have a backup of this file. As typically they only have some of the pages of older defunct saved and archived but very rarely they would ever still have any of the original files archived. So thanks, that's something that never crossed my mind but I will try the web archives in the future first if I ever have trouble locating an older update patch.

Mat2Music.exe, and full_PR4.jpg can NOT be downloaded. I was able to download and view the other extras such as artwork for the games Wizard of Wor and Primal Rage.

It's best to use this one for now:

<-Not working, would be great and really appreciate it if someone has this artwork picture to share

When I click on the link for Update 1 on this page-

Code: Select all
