Can't seem to patch Justin Bailey onto a SNES [JU] ROM... what am I doing wrong?

just using a common-or-garden JU ROM (tried both SFC and SMC format) and the IPS you can download from the resources section.  Using Lunar IPS to do the patching. Whenever I try and patch the cartridge with the Justin Bailey .ips from the metroid construction resources section it just scrambles the ROM. I checked the model in SPARTA as well, it looks like the IPS isn't offset correctly.  What am I doing wrong? Can't see anything obvious in the README.

It's for a headered rom. Either get one, or make one by inserting 512 bytes at the begining of unheadered rom before patching(smile might have an option to add a header too?).

ahhh, thought I was already using a headered ROM. (I believe smile does. anyhow, that's easy to fix!)

thanks
