There's A Patch For Ikaruga !!!
 

There's a patch for Ikaruga so its runs at 60 Hz.
It's name is "adr-ika.zip".
I need someone who could spread it...

Or try this :
_ open the image (or 1st_read.bin) with an hex editor
_ look for "0B 42 09 00 01 1F 0C 84"
_ change it by "0B 42 09 00 01 1F 30 E0"

I think it might work if you only do that, but if it doesn't :
_ look for "63 74 20 31 32 20 32 30 30 30 20 31 39 3A 32 30"
_ and change it by "00" until "69 6E 00 53 45 4C 45 43 54 2E 70 76 72 00 00"
==> 255796 bytes !

Please, can you mail me the patch?

Done.

Put it somewhere so that everybody can get it.

Send me the patch please Megalexxx.
& I'll patch & post the 60hz PAL edition.

Cheers.........

P.S

I'm looking for 60hz patches for these 2 also

Fatal Fury Garou
King of The Fighters 2000

Hi Megalexxx, the patch worked. I just replaced
"0B 42 09 00 01 1F 0C 84"
with
"0B 42 09 00 01 1F 30 E0"
and it worked fine. :)

Thanks a lot!

Cheers Yod@ I'll try this in that case, I'll post it tomorrow all been well.

Again thanks............

I would also like the 60Hz Patch please. A link or in an email.

At least Ikaruga is still good at 50Hz. The boarder are very small and I don't think I can notice any speed decrease when compared to playing it at 60Hz(On a VGA Box).

Does anyone else agree?

Thanks.

Now all we need is 60Hz patches for Garou & KoF2K. These games should be played 60Hz on a TV, not a monitor.

It works a treat.

Thanks Megalexxx & Yod@

I'm posting the patched version on 2 obvious news groups to share it about.

Cheers again.

Yod@ : thanx for testing ! :)

For all of you who can't wait for the patch to be available everywhere, do this :
_ open the image (or 1st_read.bin) with an hex editor
_ look for "0B 42 09 00 01 1F 0C 84"
_ change it by "0B 42 09 00 01 1F 30 E0"

I'll have a look for your patch...

first of all, thanks to everybody for posting this

playing around with the code posted by Megalexxx I found that the same code will also fix the following games (make them run at 60 Hz):

Mark Of The Wolves
Space Channel 5 Part 2
Sakura Wars 4

I don't have KOF 2K to test it, but I think it is highly likely it will work there also

Well...

Have you checked your games are really running 60 Hz ?
I mean, finding this code doesn't mean it will work the same way on other games...

yes, the games now are running at 60 Hz

Ok, thanx for confirming. :)
I'll had that in my PAL Patcher. :)

Just wondering, is there a known 60Hz patch for Sega Rally 2? The existing ones don't seem to work :(

Thanks
