Baixar a Rom Hack do Mega Man Showdown IV

Megaman Showdown 4
A hack for Mega Man IV, NOT Rockman 4
©2009 Insectduel
Version 1.00

=============================================================================
Description
=============================================================================

MMS4 is the boss-only version of Mega Man 4. Megaman Showdown 4 is basically my own project because Mega Man IV is one of my favorite games. So I started the project and quickly find some data on my own until I added a few on Datacrystal and used their notes as well. Someday, I'll work on my long-term Mega Man IV project. So Showdown 4 is the only one completed right now. MMS4 is a hack of the original MM4 that makes all stages except for Cossack 1, and Cossack 2 only 2 screens. Wily 3 are where you refight old bosses.

All boss stats have been edited (EX Version only), all weapon energy consumption amounts have been edited, etc etc etc except music but feel free to add if you want. I really don't need to add music to this hack unless I'm working on some long-term Mega Man IV hack.

This should be the final version of MMS4 of v1.00 unless bugs are discovered. Also note that MMS4 you start witn 0 lives which is new in this Showdown series and you get to choose between Normal and Hard modes depending what patch are you using.

The original hack is created by Vagla of Dragon Eye Studios. 7 years ago when both Mega Man Showdown I and Mega Man Showdown VI were made.

=============================================================================
Installation
=============================================================================

You need the Mega Man 4 (U) ROM to apply these patches, NOT Rockman 4.

To install it, use the IPS patcher (like WinIPS or LunarIPS) and follow the instructions to apply the patch on the ROM. Be sure you patch it with the correct version of after renaming the rom.

mms4.ips - Normal Version

mms4hard.ips - Normal Version with no reflex time.

mms4EX.ips - EX Version

mms4EXhard.ips - EX Version with no reflex time.

The EX Version of Megaman Showdown 4 brings more life to the game. All Bosses are customized to be stronger and harder to defeat meaning that they're hyperactive. I have spent countless hours trying to modify their settings and new settings I created.

As a result, you cannot guarantee that they're easy to beat. :P And the WIRE weapon is your friend in this hack.

=============================================================================
Recommended Emulators
=============================================================================

I recommend FCE Ultra, G-NES, RockNES or Nestopia for this hack. When you use these emulators, it will most likely play on the real NES/Famicom. You should not use old and inaccurate emulators like NESticle, VirtuaNES, Nester J, NNNester J Unofficial Nester, and even J-nes.

However, VirtuaNES seems pretty good if you're doing Time-Attack when recording your movie gameplay. The recent FCE Ultra Emulator is FCE Ultra X Version 2.1.0 which can be downloadable from Zophar's Domain.

Known Bugs
=============================================================================

None. Thank god and my BETA Testers including myself for playing this bloody game.

=============================================================================
About the Boss AI Edits
=============================================================================

I have spent most of time editing the AI's but some of them require Free Space like Ringman to add new ones. And I most likely change their LDA Settings including Object ID's which used for Brightman and Dr. Cossack for his huge plasma balls.

Although, I couldn't get some of the bosses the way I wanted such as Ringmans Ring Aim-direct towards Megaman or the other ones. But this is the way I have for now.

=============================================================================
Missing Stuff
=============================================================================

I wanted the scrolls to go fast like Rock5easily's Rockman 4 patch but I have tried to convert the patch myself but 1 or more data were different data including VRAM data. I have no idea how they work but if you know about it, please give me a line.

=============================================================================
Credits
=============================================================================

Look in the credits when beating the game :D

But also to Matrixz/Panophobia and Infidelity for sharing their cool findings. And Yosaku for keeping me entertained. The Armor GFX of Ringman is created by the author of Mega Man C4. And also thank the staff of Insectduel's Board for BETA-Testing my hack and the bug findings. I have to fix a few before releasing.

And 100%, No thanks to:

Phet Vong a.k.a Phetmany Rathasvong (Username: Phetmany and Missiondestina) and Cynthia Banh, for wasting my time and effort on my ROM-Hacking project involving in some damn company. I have to admit, I do enjoying seeing and hanging out with them, but life is taken away from me very fast. And these Asian girls are also very attractive too which is a distraction. Phet is somewhat Vietnamese and Cynthia is Chinese. I may need to go back with them for family support reasons only.

Vincent Rouge, for illegally told me to post all 5 illegal YOR Health videos in my YouTube Account BEFORE Phetmany plan to take legal actions against me and possibly Insectduel's Domain if she sees it. All of them are set to private afterwards.

Nick Bartola, for attracting me for his World Class Banquet video which made Vincent asked me to post it in public.

Linda Chum, Unknown reason except making me a fool.

Lashon Kempton, Making me a fool, lost my bag I carry for drinks, and got me lost during network marketing. Then again, also waste my time.

Suggestion
=============================================================================

Want to become the supreme Megaman 4 hacker? Then start your hobby by going to Datacrystal.org and look for Megaman 4 ROM Map. Be sure you get your level editors too to edit the maps.

Megaman Showdown 3 isn't created yet. I'm not invloved with this one. I may have to modify Vagla's Megaman Showdown 6 to 2.0 version because Vagla cannot find the data.

I have another Megaman 1 project called Megagirl another fight story, I have to finish this one.
