How can I patch Ikaruga to 60Hz?
Any idea how I might be able to patch Ikaruga to play at 60Hz on a PAL DC?
The standard patch doesn't work Thanks |

Yeah, I downloaded it this morning (believe it or not it's only a 20Mb dl). The nfo says it was released by W00T (never heard of them) but it definitely works. Only problem is, as I said, that it runs at 50Hz on a PAL machine, and the standard patch doesn't work (I also tried the Pal Patcher util with all the other patches and none of them work either).
Am I allowed to post here which newsgroup I got it off?? |

I've just burnt it, it's coooool.
It works fine on my PAL DC. You can't remove borders, since they are on original game... |

Trust me, it's running in 50Hz (my tv's display tells me). The borders are there top and bottom on a horizontal tv, or at the sides on a rotated tv (like i'm using).
I suppose we'll just have to wait and see if any groups can release a specific patch for it. I'll just try and pick up a 2nd-hand US/JAP Dreamcast somewhere. Thanks anyway, have fun with it. |

If you don't care about wasting 1 CD, try this :
_ open Ikaruga image with an hex editor _ look for "0B 42 09 00 03 88 04 8B" _ replace it by "0B 42 09 00 03 88 09 00" _ burn it and test it _ tell me if it works |

Megalexxx: I tried it, but I can't find that particular hex pattern in the .cdi. Do you have any others I can try? I don't mind wasting CD-Rs...
Thanks a lot |

That's strange : I found it in 1st_read.bin. You should find it in the image...
I'll try tonight and let you know. |

I just tried it, but it's still 50Hz
Any ideas, or should I give up? Thanks for your help Megalexxx. |

Ok, thanks Megalexxx.
I'll post here if I DO find anything that works. |

60hz fixes
Hi Megalexxx, just wondered if you had any other 60 hz fixes for PAL DC games? I have a few old ones I'd like running at 60hz.
Also what Hex editor do you use to apply these fixes? Thanks for any info........... SlipperChin |

Slipperchin: for most games which run at 50Hz on a PAL DC, you can use a hex editor to search for:
01 E4 03 A0 02 E4 01 A0 03 and replace it with 00 E4 03 A0 00 E4 01 A0 00 Doesn't work for these though: Surf Rocket Racers Maximum Pool Sno Cross Championship Racing Hidden + Dangerous Quake 1 Midway Greatest Arcade Hits Wild Metal Bust a Move 4 Virtua fighter 3tb Rainbow 6 Urban Chaos Sonic Shuffle Railroad Tycoon 2 NBA 2K1 Armada UnderCover A.D.2025 Kei Ikaruga And probably some others as well..... I use a hex editor called Hedit. |
