Has anyone touched other Taito games such as Runark and Thunder Fox? I would love to see the horrible colour choices by Taito fixed on those two.

That looks stunning. I own the Raiden arcade board and always thought the MD version played great but looked drab by comparison. This is exactly what MD Raiden needed! :DQuote:

Of course that the way he has started to pave must have given a lot of ideas about games that actually have good/nice gameplay but could have looked better. For instance, I remember a certain Turbo Outrun that when played overclocked gets much better. If the overall look of sprites and maybe backgrounds could be retouched then it would become a killer conversion...:D

Are you still working on the Kid Chameleon color hack?
My KC hack was paused but i still want to finish it and release with more improvements beyond the colors...Quote:

Well that sucks.
This is the worst thing since sliced Hitler.
Last I checked(a few moments ago), it's up again.
I found a few interesting hack combinations:
-Combine Pyron's Double Dragon Enhanced Colors with hiro1112's Arcade Fixes for an alternative version with some nice changes. You can make a normal or scroll-fixed version.
-Combine Pyron's Altered Beast Arcade Color Restore with Linkeui's Arcade Voice Samples for improved voices.
-Combine Pyron's Super Street Fighter II Arcade Color Restore with Stephane's PCM Driver Fix for high quality audio.
-Combine Pyron's Street Fighter II SCE Arcade Color Restore with Stephane's PCM Driver Fix for high quality audio.
I haven't had time to thoroughly test these, but they all boot and seem to play in emulation at least.

I asked for making a reproduction cart with both Pyron's Altered Beast Arcade Color Restore and Linkeui's Arcade Voice Samples for improved voices and it works perfectly on real hardware.
Can't tell if it will work for the rest of the others, though.
Hi Pyron,
I know you got a ton of projects and I love them, but if you're ever looking for a new idea, how about Soleil/Crusader of Centy?
It's my favorite action RPG on the Genesis.
But I've always thought the choice of colors was weird. Looks washed out.

This choice of desert color seems too dark and gritty. Maybe the colors used in Aladdin or Taz-Mania's desert/beach stages would look more appealing?
Attachment 13275
The grass doesnt look vibrant and other colors look washed out
Hey Pyron, keep on the good work :) This is amazing
Test for the future

The purple hue used for the background makes the game much more vibrant! :ok:
Pyron delivered again. Fantastic colours!Quote:

Solid improvement Pyron. Thanks a lot!
I love this game but the drab colors always bothered me on the main table.
That looks excellent. Great work :D
Am I the only one who's having HTTP 504 errors on romhacking? I'm not able to download the hack because of this.
EDIT: I managed to download the hack already, but it makes very difficult to navigate the website being like that.
I know it's not an arcade release, but Lunar for the Sega CD...man terrible colors it appears at times it has less than 15 colors total on screen. One of my all time favorites, I am sure a ton of people can chime in on the complete lack of color in the game.
can you improve terminator, robocop vs terminator, earthworm jim 1/2, mega turrican, world of illusion, mickey mania, donald maui mallard are my favourite
I second Mega Turrican. I cant the colors used on the big robot on the first level, the one that is red and green...makes it look like a toy. Also dont like the color purple used on parts of the background on the first level. But really, any game Pyron takes his time to fix is a huge win for us.Quote:

There is an atrocious hack for Snes, but the colors are ok, it would be cool to see a Sega version following this color approach.

Double Dragon 3 might be an easy one for you, if your changes for DD translate to it. Maybe the control issues could be fixed at the same time.
I still don't know how to put the Final Fight CD color hack IPS onto cd/iso for sega cd=( What software do I need?
Rip you japanese game on bin/cue format and later apply the patch on bin file using this programQuote:

Yet regular Cue works. Frustrating after years, I'm done trying. :( When I patched Golden Axe I just got a red screen of death however the Bloodlines patch worked :cool:Quote:

Thanks bro it worked ! + rep. It would be cool if somebody uploaded the already patched Pyron v2 (final) color version cue though...but this v1 version (I presume) looks better than than cd game we got in 90s at least.Quote:

I even tried this revision https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BipjycqoUnE but still no luck. Oddly Bloodlines and other hacks he did works fine. If I had Pyrons color hack of golden axe rom and had a hack to play as maroon/purple dragon that shoots fireballs from start to finish (like all the sor2 type hacks) I'd rule the world ha.
Alright, downloaded Lunar IPS, patched the BIN with version 2 patch, tested it in Kega Fusion (works) and began the upload. Once done (in about 30min) the DL link will be PM'ed.
EDIT - just seen the rest of your post for the other two games you requested. Try it with "Lunar IPS" and others from romhacking site and see if that works (sort by your OS and date of release). If not, it's no problem for me to upload those too.
A working pre-patched copy has been up at EP forums for quite some time.
I have no idea how to access those forum links.Quote:
