Mega Man X2 MSU-1Description

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.

Mega Man X2 MSU-1
Version 1.0
by DarkShock and Exort

This hack adds CD quality audio to Mega Man X2 using the MSU-1 chip invented by byuu.
The hack has been tested on SD2SNES, bsnes-plus and higan 094. The patched ROM needs to be named mmx2_msu1.sfc.

Note they are two IPS patches:
- mmx2_msu1_emulator.ips is the one to use for proper volume in emulators.
- mmx2_msu1.ips is for the SD2SNES

The music pack can be found here:
