King of Fighters 2002 problem

Arucard · #1 04-07-2003, 11:03

I am having a problem with King of Fighters 2002. All of the characters shadows in the game flicker and are made up of seperated lines. Now I know this is only a minor annoyance but I would just like to know if someone knows how to fix this. I live in the US and I am using an NTSC version of Dreamcast respectively. King of Fighters is a japanese game and as far as I know the japanese also use NTSC. Is this correct?

I thought about using the PAL patchers but then i realized that I don't have a PAL Dreamcast........would it still help me with my problem? I just wanna make sure before I create a bunch of coasters

Thank you in advance for your help

I have a PAL dc, kof2k2 seems tu run at 50hz and i've noticed the flickering of the shadows. Maybe that's the way the game is (?)

Thats the way te game was made.

The Neo Geo arcade version also has flickering shadows.

lol

and I thought it was a problem with the way I burned the game (it was my first time ever burning a dreamcast game). I have never seen the arcade game so I had no idea. Thank you for your help though

Have you tried "PAL Patch 2" ?

Yes. I tried PAL Patch 2.
The game doesn't seem to boot anymore after applying the patch.
("Sega" -> black screen -> nothing)

i used pal protection 2 and 3 and it worked perfect!

PAL Patcher v1.0 is bugged.
Be sure you used PAL Patcher v1.1...

nope...

Can't get it to work.

Used (as always) v1.1

Patched PAL Protection 2 and 3 -> doesn't boot

Only Patchted PAL Protection 2 -> same

Me -> resigned

Maybe i'm just too stupid or something... bleh
