Don’t think this is gonna be a 100% Gold Remake, it’ll have its differences. Extra battles (some’ll be optionals, tough but rewarding), Hoenn Pokemon (in every area, and hard to find) New areas, Remapped some dungeons (so your old guides wont work) , Extra recurring characters (some’ll hate you, some’ll help you)
Note that the hack is incomplete but feel free to enjoy the hack as-is.
Twin Cobra/Kyuukyoku Tiger IPS patch version 2.00 14th July 2016 by fusaru made with Tile Layer Pro, HivePAL, GIMP, Bless Hex Editor, Sega Data Compressor ==Purpose of the patch== Reinserts sprites and tiles from the arcade version for a more faithful look. Palettes have also been tweaked. Contains one patch for Twin Cobra (US release) and one for Kyuukyoku Tiger (JP release) ==Usage== Apply the included IPS file to the ROM (e.g. via Retron 5, Cybergadet Retrofreak, dedicated program such as "StealthPatch IPS Patcher"). If you get a red screen, the checksum needs to be fixed. Programs such as ESE FixCheckSum can do this for you. This IPS patch expands the rom size as the redrawn graphics are slightly bigger than the ones they replace. Please ensure your patcher supports this (confirmed working with the patching methods mentioned above) ==Notes== *version 2.00 now also has modified sprites and a slightly different palette in order to improve projectile visiblity. *The game uses the "Nemesis" type of compression. *very strange design philosophy by the programmers to use only one fixed 16 color palette for every single ingame background. With a palette swap mechanism, this could have looked even closer to the arcade original. If somebody feels like programming this, please contact me. *The game sacrifices one full 16 color palette to make enemies flash in red/yellow. *The infamous yellow tanks, projectiles, explosion effects and more enemies use the same 4 yellow/orange tones. Had to go for a compromise here. The impact of this has been reduced by the redrawn sprites. *The game shares a fair amount of tiles e.g. train station in stage 6 shares tiles with the chimney house in stage 3/8 and main battleship. Certain graphics had to be adjusted to not stand out. *for Hivepal users: most game palettes are stored around "7C74", helicopers are at "15D2". Japanese version locations are just bit off. For pointers see later on. ==Updates with version 2.00== *all sprites aside from a few projectiles redrawn to look more detailed and arcade-like *title screen appearance was edited *pointer locations included *minor palette editing for better visibility *ROM expanded to include redrawn sprites *fixed a few wrongly colored white and red house tiles in stage 5 and 10 ==Updates with version 1.01== *fixed a bug that causes garbage graphics in later stages *ported to the japanese version *minor graphic cleanups ==Legal stuff== Do whatever you want with these files, it's just a hobby. Feel free to further edit and resubmit. ==Pointers== This is only relevant for people that want to do further work on this.
