R-Type colors hack (arcade)
Post Posted: Sat Apr 04, 2020 11:35 pm
Well, this is my first work in hack colors in Master System.
The work not is good because i only changed the game´s colors with palette disponible. I would must to have changed the tiles but im in bad level and i dont know use mastertileconverter. This is a idea how sms R-Type could use color close to arcade´s game.

Nice work! The too-dark blue (not enough cyan) of the SMS R-Type's cockpit always bothered me, and you fixed it

I converted it to a patch that can be applied to an existing dump of the R-Type cartridge using Floating IPS or another IPS-compatible patcher.

Apply to: 512K 'R-Type (UE) [!].sms'

edit: updated the patch, it now repairs the export header checksum

For these I think it’d be good to have screenshots of the original and arcade for comparison.
