Hello,

I cannot get the Super Mario World 1 hack Panic in the Mushroom Kingdom 2 to work with ZSNES.

I have tried headered and unheadered ROMS, obviously, both from downloads or from adding/removing the header myself with NSRT; to no avail.
I'm not sure whether there are different versions of the (U) ROM.

Well, if someone could check the problem or host the right ROM for this hack, I'd appreciate it.

Run your rom through this: http://www.smwcentral.net/online/clean/

That did help me find a clean ROM, thank you for that, but the IPS still does not work with either headered and unheadered version of the clean SWM ROM.

Is it because of ZSNES?
Should I patch the SMC file instead of simply having the IPS file and the unpatched SMC file in the same folder?

This is the first time I have encountered a problem with an IPS file, ever.

I think PITMK2 is only compatable with the Snes9X emulator for some odd reason.

It works if you hard patch it. You will need to have a header on the ROM to patch it.

The issue is somewhat ZSNES related. The patch expect the game to have a header, and part of the patching process removes the header. ZSNES IIRC chops off the header internally, prior to patching. This causes any patch that removes a header to fail outright... because it will attempt to "remove" the header again, making the ROM unplayable.
