Can't get the game to start.
« on: April 14, 2008, 12:02:16 am »
When I upload the rom to my ZSNES, I can get to the opening screen with the Frozen Flame and some text, and then I press the X key and it just fades to black. :/


What do I do?

If you applied the headered patch, try the unheadered, or vice-versa.

I've tried both, and I'm still getting the same problem. Should I try to download a different .zip, or try a different emulator?

Snes9x, but I should probably try to use a different patch on ZSNES

I can't get it to work either. I've tried both patches on three emulators (snes9x, zsnes, bsnes), but it still just fades to black and does nothing.

linkdude, are you hard-patching or soft-patching? I find it best to use hard patches with ZSNES.

What version of ZSNES were you using, if I may ask?

What details can you get on your ROM before patching it?

1.51, the latest version. Vehek, what kind of details do you mean? The rom works fine before patching it, by the way.

Any luck, linkdude? Have you stripped off your ROM's header in Temporal Flux before hard-patching the ROM with the unheadered patch?
