I thought so... even if I can barely finish the first stage. Those DD games are way harder than the Capcom beat 'em ups. I shouldn't complain. The Renegade games are even harder.

BTW, just noticed the DD game is an unlicensed cart. It's one of those Genesis carts produced by Accolade during the period they decided to stop paying Sega for their licenses. So... no Sega logo at the start of this one.

Yet Another hack for Super Street Fighter II (Genesis). At this point I'm quite at a loss here, I don't know if this is worth adding or if the existing hacks provide enough of these extras, namely the enhanced palette by Lord Hiryu and Dolsilwa and the music patch by Aeronius.



Information and download here.

I always tell myself it would be good to have some kind of semi-official 'ultimate patch' series for retro games making the best enhanced version of games, because yes some of them have diznes of different enhancement hacks

Gleaming the cube... I must suppress the memories of a skateboarding film starring Christian Slater.... I must fight...

And it's a good thing that FB Neo doesn't emulate the SNES. The Final Fantasy hacks alone are a labyrinth.

There would be a civil war jut discussing what's the best retranslation hack !

No, the game uses the musics and settings inspired by the Zelda saga (without an official license... I presume!  :biggrin:)
But it's not a hack, the graphics should be completely remade and the code should be totally new! Among other things, this game/ROM uses a UNROM 512 (Mapper 30) instead of a MMC1 (Mapper 1).

On the subject of SF2 and SSF2 for the Genesis / Mega Drive, I've been doing some research. I don't know of a definitive SSF2 hack yet, but an older reddit thread mentions the best SF2 version would be a combination of SF2 Remastered by Pyron and the PCM driver fix by Stephane Dallongeville. I didn't have that particular combination on my set, so I had to create it from scratch. Take note, Genesis fans.



These are the patches involved:

Street Fighter 2 Remastered Edition

Street Fighter II PCM driver fix

EDIT: For Super Street Fighter II it seems you also need to combine hacks.



First the SUPER STREET FIGHTER 2 hack by Lord Hiryu, and then the Color Hack - Music Restoration addendum by Aeronius.

These are the patches:

SUPER STREET FIGHTER 2

Super Street Fighter II - Color Hack - Music Restoration

You may also want to consider the Super Street Fighter II: Arcade Edition I posted about earlier. It seems that it is a further improvement on the Lord Hiryu and Dolsilwa (which I didn't recommend) previous hacks, adding:

- New colors and new fonts closer to the arcade version.

- New RUSSIA name and flag

Today let me introduce you to Streets of Rage Plus.



It's a hack for the first Bare Knuckle / Streets of Rage for the  Genesis / Mega Drive, adding:

- Expanded Alternate Colors
- Bad Ending in Single Player
- Six Button controls
- Difficulty Randomizer

The sprites ares still a bit small and the FX kinda anemic, but that's why Sega gaves us the sequels.

Grab it from here.
