YZB's 4MB hacks

This is a me thing, but I wish someone would do this for the PAL version of The King of Fighters '95. I've been wanting to get the game in English, but that would mean I'd have to get a region free unit. Getting it in English while also having a 4MB RAM hack would be amazing in my opinion.

Omg I have been looking for years a version of Kof 96 in Stereo!!! Is there anyone here capable to do that?
That would be amazing.

For some reason this Ultraman hack does not work on my Sega Saturn HST-3220 made in the Philippines (it freeze when the level loads), but it works fine on the HST-3220 made in Japan.
 
I only have an issue with KOF95...the other 4MB hacks work fine for me although I admittedly didn't play them for more than 15 min or so. Perhaps its the image that is the issue? I'll test more once I have time.
 
Quick and dirty post: https://www.mediafire.com/file/mrc493qrvfaqdhv/D%26D_Shadow_over_Mystara_%28Saroo_opt%29.7z/file

Saroo optmized, INSANE load times, 2 seconds max. I should do a proper post on saturday. Enjoy.

Ah, Saroo exclusive, don't work on any other devices. I don't know about emulation.
Is there any more info on how this is being done? The idea of Saroo “exclusive” patches for games is an interesting one. I’d like to do a video for The SEGAGuys on this patch, but would prefer to have some specifics of how it’s being done before putting any information out to a wider audience.

There's little information about this, you can find it in the original thread and google translate it. YZB said he used the 16 Mb ram available and "other" features but didn't elaborate.


YZB has made many experiments for Saroo like a KoF97 that keeps playing the bgm while loading chars and a saturn "game cartridge" like an stv game.

Brilliant, appreciate the link and info.

Has the file you shared the link to been updated to add the audio back in?
 
Yes, ready to play.
Finished a Thief gameplay this sunday and had no issues. It's almost arcade perfect now, you blink and miss the now loading screens.
Legend mate. Appreciate you taking the time to do that.

So basically we can expect Saroo exclusive patches that use the Saroo’s expanded memory to push games even better in terms of performance?
 
Wow, that KOF97 ISO for Saroo was shared in any form?

And... maybe in the future, that demo of Heart of Darkness can be played on real hardware via "Saroo tweaks" ?

That demo is already playable with saroo since 0.7. I finished it on my Saturn and shed a tear because I wanted to continue playing.
About kof97, I didn't share it because it's non pratical. The music goes on but imediately is restarted after "ready Go!" because that's the way the game works

It's happening. Something tells me Castlevania will see a new hack... the 4th one lol.
