Tested v2.0 on Saturn.emu (Android with 4MB version) and Ymir (Windows with 6MB test) and both works as intended!
However, i think all the hard work you did to keep the music continuously playing between player matches is abit lost and redundant for King of Fighters 97 since 90% of the fights, it's just ambient sound with no music playing....it's only 'special' characters like Billy, Athena, etc that has music playing.
Would it be possible to do the same for the saturn King of fighters 96 instead? Just a thought.
Thanks for the hard work!
But nothing stops you from changing the ambient tracks with music from 95 and 96, just replace the .bin files starting from track 2, you have to know which is which surely, easy if you mount the image and listen to them.
