“NOTE: Do NOT patch this Hack with the Lemmings USA/JAPAN ROM V1.0 OR V1.1. it will not work. You MUST patch this with the Lemmings EUROPE PAL version as this is a hack from the PAL version of Lemmings for the SEGA MegaDrive.”
I can confirm this ROM hack is compatible to run on real hardware using the Mega Everdrive x7.
