Patched rom doesn't run #83

Closed andoruB closed 9 years ago

andoruB commented 9 years ago

So, I've tried to run a patched version of Super Puyo Puyo Tsu (patch here: http://romhacking.net/translations/465/), with the distinct patch in the patch folder, by patching the rom directly with LunarIPS, and by downloading an already-patched rom, but none of these work. When I boot the FPS counter turns to yellow, and I'm left with a black screen and with 30-40% CPU usage (which is typical for normal usage). I remember that with the previous versions of Snes9x (stable) I was able to run the same patched rom...

Here's what I get as ROM info:

This ROM has been modified or damaged

The unpatched version runs well:

It's not mentioned in the readme, but the patch probably requires a headered rom to work. The patched game is running fine on my end.

Got a different version of the ROM and now it works. Thanks.
