The giant minimap in Tales of Xillia drives me crazy; I can't stop staring at it all the time. So finally I had to do something about it ...

This bit of junk patches the game to disable various overlays.

disable_minimap.txt: Disable the annoying minimap!
disable_chapter_label.txt: Disable the annoying Main Chapter / Character Episode label.
disable_bonus_label.txt: Disable the annoying Bonus Scene label during event scenes.
disable_all.txt: All of the above.
enable_all.txt: Enables everything (back to default).

If the game is already installed, remember to delete the install data on the PS3.

Updated: this is a command line tool, but I added a couple batch files that can be run directly from the game folder (BLJS10120, BLES01815 etc).

Updated 1.01: now it actually works with the US/EU version (oops).
