    Some hacks by AsadAwan

    in Arcade Emulators [/pc/arcade]

    Posted · Edited by iq_132

    Well, I can tell you the legalities of hacked roms :huh: Hacked roms still contain copyrighted from actual game companies.

     

    It's like stealing an already stolen bike. Yes, the bike still belongs to the original person it was stolen from.

     

    I do agree with GC that patches are a bit iffy. It's hard to know if a byte or two difference is really considered a copyright violation. I can't imagine that it is, especially since it can be applied to pretty much any file.

    Well the xors were fine, but for it not to have gotten anywhere in the next part, means that it couldn't find any block of 512 bytes in the first 2mb of the decrypted one, that a partially decrypted other one had in common. Which is, um, surprising I guess. I'll have to take a look at the actual rom myself.

     

    I have the real svcchaos v's now (thanks to the patches), and I verified that the crcs are correct. I have shown here a diff of the effects of the patch, on the decrypted and encrypted roms:

     

    --- 269-v1.bin 34f9e19c 800000

    +++ 269-v1.new c659b34c 800000

    0 c3c3 ec29

     

    --- 269-v1d.bin a81da99a 800000

    +++ 269-v1d.tmp ff64cd56 800000

    c73d8 00 2f

    +ffff 00 ea

     

    Obviously, both `c659b34c' and `a81da99a' can't both be correct (ie. it should be either patched or not), but thats not a big issue.

    I've been told that svcchaos' V roms are watermarked somehow, so I'm betting the one that you produced is actually the correct one (or at least more correct that the current a81da99a one.

    Thanks for the svc patches.

    As for what's going wrong, it gets past the data xor though right? It should also be able to get past the first part of the shift thing. Is it stuck at the bit where it says searching? You're using the new version?

    Unless the roms don't actually come from each other, i think it should generate a shift value, even if its completetly bogus.

     

    yeah. It gets to the "search" part. I let it run for about 20 minutes... Do you think it should take that long?

    Here's a patch from:

    Edit

    I'm still having the same problem with mslug5 it gets to the same point and then goes and goes... How long should this take? (I have a p4, 2.4ghz)

    Here are the results for svcchaos's Vs. (It never finished the shift detection though I left it running for an hour!)

    btw, here's a program that was made to convert svcchaos's V roms

    I tried both of those sets and have gotten nothing.

    The program loads, writes a 0 byte.txt and then just hangs.

    Am I not waiting long enough?

     

    I've heard that the decrypted Vs of these new sets are watermarked, so you may not get exactly the same decrypted Vs that you're looking for.

    I'm guessing (odds are that I am wrong) that is the reason why the program doesn't work.

     

    btw. I'm sure you know this, but there are two versions of the neo-pcm2. One is the 1999, SNK one (which is used by rotd, mslug4, and pnyaa) and the other is the 2002, Playmore one (which is used by kof2002, kof2003, svcchaos, mslug5, samsho5, and samsho5sp).

    something about KOF2K4se

     

    check out this site there some kof2k4se file parts DL and check it out

     

    (i dont know if there are roms or ips patch) just tell me what it is ?

     

    oh yeah the site is not in english, but it is not hard to find it  ;)

     

    *snip*

     

    Moderator's Edit: the site hosts rom images, linking to it is against the rules.

     

    Why did you re-add that link? Are you trying to get banned??

     

    @DragonKeeper -- I'll see if I can figure out the problem.

    *edit*

    Here's a fixed page (I forgot to add a few things :D )
