Mega Man X3 MSU-1 AudioDescription

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.

- mmx3_msu1_emulator.ips is the one to use for proper volume in emulators.
- mmx3_msu1.ips is for the SD2SNES
- mmx3_msu1_zero_emulator.ips is for Zero Project to use in emulators
- mmx3_msu1_zero.ips is for Zero Project to use on the SD2SNES
