Double click on the Euro2000Patch.exe file to install the patch. This is a self extracting executable that will search for the Euro2000 game. It will then replace some of the main game files.

2. Patch Improvements

This patch addresses some multiplayer issues and introduces a cheat mode for getting to the Euro 2000 Finals.

3. The Cheat Mode
-----------------

We have introduced a cheat mode that will allow you to advance straight to the Euro 2000 Finals and play any of the teams that are in the actual finals. It is activated as follows.

From the main screen, enter Euro 2000 mode. You will now be at the Team Select screen. Before you pick a team, type in the following password, "euro2k" (without quotes). You will then hear a sound effect that confirms the cheat mode is active. 

If you now select any of the teams that are in the real Euro 2000 finals you will advance straight to the finals without having to play the qualifiers. The teams are listed below. 

If you select a team that isn't in the Euro 200 finals you will go into the qualifying mode as normal. If you quit out of Euro 2000 mode and want the cheat again, you will have to activate it once more in the Team Select screen.
