I've now uploaded a new version that fix this.

I've included the sourcecode in the archive if anyone's interested.

Next upcoming patch is for "Clu Clu Land (VS)" as soon as I can get my hands on a VS-to-NES palette conversion table for this title.
Someone?

I've noticed several more issues in vs_pinball.
Title screen is missing outlines around the letters, since they are colored black.
Bonus stage is missing colors for the initial state of the number circles, so they are black.
The dots and flags on the pinball table are missing due to incorrect palettes, they have black instead of 'flesh color'.

Edit: seems to be due to an incomplete palette remapping table.

I need a new palette obviously..

Try this table:

Code: Select all

	.dc.b $35,$3f,$16,$22,$1c,$09,$30,$15,$30,$00,$27,$05,$04,$28,$08,$30
	.dc.b $21,$3f,$3f,$3f,$3c,$32,$36,$12,$3f,$2b,$3f,$3f,$3f,$3f,$24,$01
	.dc.b $3f,$31,$3f,$2a,$2c,$0c,$3f,$14,$3f,$07,$34,$06,$3f,$02,$26,$0f
	.dc.b $3f,$19,$10,$0a,$3f,$3f,$37,$17,$3f,$11,$1a,$3f,$3f,$25,$18,$3f

Where did you get it? You don't happen to have a table for Cluclu Land aswell?

PocketNES source code.

Code: Select all

@battlecity/clucluland/iceclimber/smb/starluster/topgun?
	.byte 0x18,0x3f,0x1c,0x3f,0x3f,0x3f,0x01,0x17,0x10,0x3f,0x2a,0x3f,0x36,0x37,0x1a,0x39
	.byte 0x25,0x3f,0x12,0x3f,0x0f,0x3f,0x3f,0x26,0x3f,0x1b,0x22,0x19,0x04,0x0f,0x3a,0x21
	.byte 0x3f,0x0a,0x07,0x06,0x13,0x3f,0x00,0x15,0x0c,0x3f,0x11,0x3f,0x3f,0x38,0x3f,0x3f
	.byte 0x3f,0x30,0x07,0x16,0x3f,0x3b,0x30,0x3c,0x0f,0x27,0x3f,0x31,0x29,0x3f,0x11,0x09

Should be same as ice climber.

It's not

I appreciate the patches, I haven't used them yet but I might eventually. I've been playing with a VS Unisystem board and I also have patched VS SMB to use the NES palette. Because I'm using a Playchoice-10 PPU on the VS board.

After I did that though, I found another nice patch someone made, that adds high score saving. http://scoresaves.com/VsSMBHSFP.html

Wonder how Retrozone's patches work in terms of the palette.. Has anyone dumped these repros?
Has anyone got a repro of VsExcitebike? Is the palette accurate compared to the VS-version?

I've now done an almost complete rewrite of my Ice Climber (VS) hack. It should now work properly (haven't tried it at PowerPak at the moment..). It's now using mapper 1 instead of mapper 99, coins are inserted by pressing "Start", palette is patched in realtime.
Check out the ips-download on page one.

Enjoy it. And feel free to submit ideas/feedback etc.
