Whoo, nice!
And I noticed you've finally gotten somewhere on God Medicine, it's been a while there.

I should probably take another look at the script and re-edit it one of these days.

...And I'm still waiting for the SOBS spec... I don't have as much free time as I used to, but the sooner I get it the sooner I can do it. ^^;

Great work, Gid! Nice work on God Medicine, too.

Though, I was half expecting some Megami Tensei news since, you know, Nocturne finally saw its US release...

Might as well start playing then.

Awesome stuff. It is great to be able to play this game in English now.

Wow, I'm impressed, didn't even know it was being worked on.

Now I understand the sigs and posts claiming Gideon Zhi is awesome

Very nice.

Cool! I'll download the patch and try it right now!

Gideon Zhi, you're awesome.

Edit: Question. Would it be best to apply it to the ROM NSRT recognizes? Thanks.

Cecil- That's the ROM I hacked, so yes, it'll work on that. It'll also work on two other ROMs that goodsnes recognizes, and will turn them into that.

In short, yes.

Cecil · Post by **Cecil** » Mon Oct 18, 2004 6:37 am

I just tried it. You all at Aeon Genesis did a pretty good job on it.

Pretty fun game, too bad it was never officially released.

I presume that in the end it doesn't matter which of the compatible ROMs you use, right? Otherwise I'd have to go nuts looking for that one...

Louis Cypher · Post by **Louis Cypher** » Mon Oct 18, 2004 7:14 am

Right.

See, thing is, there's five dumps plus the NSRT ROM floating around. One of them is the early one that was stolen from a trade show, two are early and faulty dumps, two are approximately good, and one is the NSRT "private beta" version. The NSRT one is the best of them, so as such that's what the patch was built off of, but the IPS was constructed so it would work on the two "approximately" good ROMs as well as the NSRT one. It should turn all three into the same game.

Ah, good.

...Now to wait for the ZSNES WIP...

And that would be my fault it took so long... :/ Thank you Steve Jobs..... in fact you can still continue to thank him and my laptop manufacturer. OS9 = tEh suck (and no not the OS9 CDI runs on)

anyway Gid, did you try what I suggested about that jump to the other pointer tables in the beginning of the pointer tables about making them 24bit and repointing then? (wow confusing sentence...)

Thanks to good ole Gideon Zhi, now I'm going to resurrect my search for the StarFox2 rom.

He means pagefault's special Star Fox 2 build which Kiki KaiKai mirrored.
