🌴🥏☀️Alongside Pulstar Aegis, I also uploaded an update for my Windjammer Endless Breeze romhack. Now with Supersonic Mode, some graphic fixes and the return of the blinding VS screen, this time deeply attenuated. Have fun ☺️ #neogeo #windjammers #snk #aes #romhack

Finally got my first Cab, a SNK MVS U2 😻. A true beauty, some of the best picture quality I’ve ever seen, and moreover a real piece of Neo Geo history. It’ll need some work to restore it to its full glory, but I’m already more than happy. (BTW looking for a marquee holder🙏)

Had a non-working Hellfire PCB for a while. "RAM CHECK SIZE ERROR BD0036". Checked all the RAM, tried everything I could, no luck. As a last resort I tried to romhack the prog roms to bypass the tests. Now the PCB boots and the game runs perfectly fine 🫠 I want to understand!

Windjammers is an evil beast when it comes to triggering my OCD 😭 But now you’ll never be able to unsee it either. Thanks for making me feel less alone 😈 (They will be fixed in the next patch).

Been fighting for a few hours to convert a Pulstar bootleg with my Aegis romhack. It’s been working perfectly except the fix layer which was scrambled. Desoldered it/Erased-Rewrote the EPROM/Resoldered it a few times, verifying all the connections every time, with no luck. 1/2

Turns out the #%£$¥! who made this bootleg decided to invert the Fix Layer D0 and D5 pins, meaning I had to either modify the data order inside the S1 ROM or mod the board (which I did) The real question is: Why were they trying to protect the code they stole ? 😅

- The awful, eye-straining flashing background shown before a match has been removed. - All menu and minigame timers have been disabled. - The "Add +2 to difficulty" logic, applied when the system is in MVS mode and the region is not set to Japan, has been disabled.

Bugfix: - Fixed the incorrect lower-right tile of the title backdrop, visible when the Data East logo is displayed. I hope you’ll enjoy it! Stay tuned for the upcoming hacks 😉, and long live the almighty Neo-Geo!

🌴 Had you ever noticed that #Windjammers' intro has a glitched tile on the lower right corner? Well now you won’t be able to unsee it. (Note: You can easily fix it by editing the p1 with a hex editor. Go to 0x4BF8A and replace 5308 00C0 with 5C08 00C2) #snk #neogeo

Notice: A “bug” has been found. Some bosses use scripts that reduce invicibility frames to 0. If hit at this moment all the remaining armor is wiped instantly. It’s already fixed so if it happens to you don’t worry 😉

Thanks everyone for your interest, I have enough testers for now, sorry for those who were too late, but don’t worry, if no bug is found, the romhack will be made available in less than a week ;)

All of theses features are toggleable and disabled by default. They aim at making the game less punitive and easier to learn, without resorting to credit feeding it to infinity and beyond. Hopefully more people will be able to play this masterpiece while having fun.
