MSX Gradius-2 Enhancement Patch(c) 2009 FRS ([email protected])****************************************************************************** You must read the license and agree with it before running, copying ****** or distributing this patches. If you don't agree with the terms and ****** conditions, you must delete all its files. ******************************************************************************Background----------The MSX version of Gradius-2 (aka Nemesis-2) is a spin-off story of the Gradiusseries, developed specifically for the MSX and later ported to X68000 and PSPunder the title "Nemesis 90 Kai".As many other Konami megarom titles for MSX, it suffered from a bug in thetiming routine that made it run at twice its normal speed if the processoris fast enough.And, the game is too CPU intensive for a standard 3.57MHz Z80A to sustain afull frame rate. As a result, the game drops frames constantly, runningnoticeably slower than its predecessor: Gradius (aka Nemesis).This patch contains many fixes and enhancements for the MSX version of the gameGradius-2:1) Speed optimizationsMany internal routines were optimized. There are also new copy-to-VRAM routinesthat take advantage of the V9958 high-speed transfer if a MSX2+ or aMSX Turbo-R is detected.2) For MSX1 and MSX2: Dynamic-Vsync patchThe Konami's timing routine is based on static-vsync, so the verticalsynchronization is always enabled for their games. Any recent PC gamer knowsthat vsync takes lot of CPU time, resulting in a lower frames per second rate.Which wasn't known until now was how this could affect a slow CPU like the Z80.And it turned out that the Z80 did had a lot of power being wasted by thatroutine.This patch replaces the bugged-static-vsync-interrupt-handler from Konami bya new one, featuring dynamic vsync. This is a new method used by modern gamingconsoles (like Xbox-360) and 3D graphic cards that enables and disables thevsync on the fly, according to the CPU usage. If the CPU is falling behindthe target fps, the vsync gets disabled. Once a less cpu intense area of thegame is reached and the CPU usage goes down, the vsync is enabled again.This algorithm releases enough CPU power to run the game at a much betterframerate. Combined with the speed optimizations (1), the game now have runmuch smoother than before. It will also fix the timing bug, so now it ispossible to run the game on a turbo MSX at the correct speed.This patch will also automatically enable the turbo on the following Panasonicmachines, because those don't have an external switch to enable the turbowhile running the game. It was also included to allow people not used tothe MSX standard to get the benefits of the patch by just selecting "Turbo-R"on their MSX emulators.- Turbo-Rs - FS-A1ST - FS-A1GT- MSX2+ - FS-A1WSX - FS-A1WX - FS-A1FXAs a bonus, this patch will also adjust the palette to CoolColors on a MSX2 orhigher. CoolColors is an improved palette specially designed by me to enhancethe visual of MSX1 games on a V99x8 VDP. If you ever compared any MSX1 gamerunning on both an MSX1 and on a MSX2 (or higher), probably you have noticedthat colors are all wrong. This happens because the MSX BIOS set the palette tovalues that try to balance everyday use with backwards compatibility. Theresult was good for using the MSX-DOS and terminal programs, but verypoor for running MSX1 games. Back in the 90s I developed CoolColors to solvethat. It took about two years of extensive testing and improving to getthe final result, published in 1997 and used by many MSX programmers sincethen.2) For MSX2+ and MSX Turbo-R: Smooth Scroll and TurboFixThe original MSX game featured the "jumpy scroll", which was common on MSX1games, but always made the NES players to think their versions had superiorperformance, as it looks like the game is running at a very low framerate.This was never true, and the reason why the scroll is jumpy has nothing todo with the system speed: It was that way just because it was scrolled bymoving the tiles that have a 8x8 dimension.This patch implements new smooth scroll routines inside the engine, usingthe V9958 horizontal scroll feature. It runs quite well even at 3.57MHz.Off course, if you run the game on a turbo MSX2+ or a Turbo-R, the resultswill be even better3) Invincible patchThis one is not a bugfix, but rather a trainer. It will turn your shipindestructible, even against walls. I used the patch mainly for debuggingpurposes and included it here as a bonus.This patch is optional. ExecROM will ask you if you want it to be applied.4) Enable Cartridge combinationsAs many other Konami megarom games, Gradius-2 feature "cartridge combinations".If you insert some specific Konami game in another slot, you can get someinteresting effects: - Penguin adventure Effect: metalion is changed into a penguin, and the power-ups are fishes - Q-Bert Effect: You can enter some passwords, press to pause, enter password and press to resume. - METALION Your ship turns green and you're immortal. it wears of after a while; just re-enter the password. - NEMESIS You go to the next stage. - LARS18TH You get full power up (two options, laser etc.) and no speed ups. - The Maze of Galious Effect: when your ship gets destroyed, you can get your weapons back (backup). However, this does not work after a continue. So, there are one patch to simulate each cartridge combination. As thosepatches are optional, ExecROM will ask you if you want them to be applied.This archive is composed of the following files:READ-ME.TXT : This file;LEIA-ME.TXT : Readme file in Portuguese;GRADIUS2.XPC : All the patches above listed in XPC format. This is the format used by EXECROM, a tool by Adriano for running ROMs on a real MSX using a MegaRAM. No emulators support the XPC format yet, so you can grab XPCtools from to apply the patches directly to your rom.If your emulator supports patching ROMs on-the-fly, you should prefer it andpreserve your original ROMs untouched.The patches are compatible with both GameMaster 1 and 2.This patch was developed using the original ROM dump, which has the followingchecksums:SHA1(GRADIUS2.ROM)= ab30cdeaacbdf14e6366d43d881338178fc665cbMD5(GRADIUS2.ROM)= ee3e6a50e3de131d217e5dab55519011---------------------------------------------------------------------------Using the Patch---------------There are two easy ways to use the XPC patch:1) Easier: ExecROM. Just put the ROM and the XPC patch on the same directory(of a disk containing MSX-DOS, off course) with the same filename (ie:GRADIUS2.ROM and GRADIUS2.XPC). ExecROM will detect this and will autoload thepatch. You'll need a MegaRAM. (OpenMSX do emulate the MegaRAM). To run the gamejust type ExecROM GRADIUS2 on the MSX-DOS prompt.2) Apply the patch to the ROM. Goto download XPCtools. You can apply the patch just as you do with an IPSpatcher.The problem is: Most emulators require the game to have an exact size (multipleof the page size of the megarom in question) to execute a ROM. Otherwise itwill not run the ROM correctly. You can fool such emulators by attaching an 8KBdummy file to the end of original ROM before patching.So the steps to patch the file for an emulator would be:1) Google for "dummy file creator", get one tool for that.2) Create an 8KB filled dummy file filled with FFh3) Open a shell on Windows, type: copy /b NEMESIS2.ROM + dummy8KB.rom GRAD2ENH.ROM4) type: xpcapply GRAD2ENH.ROM GRADIUS2.XPCIf even this way your emulator still refuses to load the ROM, repeat theprocess using a 128KB dummy ROM (what a waste of space...).---------------------------------------------------------------------------Special Thanks to:- openMSX team, for their excellent emulator and openMSX Debugger;- Adriano Rodrigues Camargo da Cunha, for ExecROM and XPCtools. =========================================================================== License Terms of use---------------------------------------------------------------------------1) This patches are free (gratis) for non-commercial purposes.
