F-Zero Final VS Online Playable at Combo Breaker 2022, check last post!

[Grego]

Your copy of xkas.exe needs to be in the same directory as the code, not in its own directory. Everything else looks good!

I have uploaded the Ultra Net stream to youtube with improved audio and removed down time:

F-Zero Final v0.2 is now available!

Please check GitHub for the update: https://github.com/originalgrego/FZeroFinal

Improved installation directions are included so I hope this helps the less technologically inclined.

I made a video now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPy_vtN0ucM

It's still not working. Sorry.

[Grego]

Heavymetalrocker, put xkas.exe in your FZFinal folder.

[HeavyMetalRocker1988]

I understand up to that point, by put xkas.exe into the FZFinal folder, with a txt file: 'PUT XKAS V0.06 HERE'. But it's not working anyway.

[azidahaka]

Amazing stuff, are there some vids on youtube?

[Freestate]

Enjoy

[Grego]

@HeavyMetalRocker1988 please do the following:

1.) Open a command prompt, type "cmd" into the run textbox in your start bar and hit enter
2.) Type "cd C:\Users\You\Directory\F-Zero_Final" into the command prompt and hit enter, this will take you to your F-Zero_Final directory
3.) Type "apply_patch.bat" and hit enter

Now take a picture of the command prompt and post it, I need to see what's happening when it tries to apply the patch. Sorry it took so long to respond, I was on vacation.

@Freestate

That is amazing! I was having a bad day after F-Zero Final VS was rejected for AGDQ, that box art makes my day! <3

[duiz]

This is what happens when I try to patch the game. I confirmed the CRC is the correct ones.

C:\Users\duiz\F-ZeroFinal>apply_patch.bat

C:\Users\duiz\F-ZeroFinal>SET ROM_DIR=..\SNES_ROMS

C:\Users\duiz\F-ZeroFinal>del "..\SNES_ROMS\F-Zero_Final.sfc"
The system cannot find the file specified.

C:\Users\duiz\F-ZeroFinal>copy "..\SNES_ROMS\F-Zero.sfc" "..\SNES_ROMS\F-Zero_Final.sfc"
The system cannot find the path specified.

[Grego]

That means either your ROMs are named wrong or your directory structure is wrong. Please check the README.

[duiz]

and inside snes_roms

[Grego]

SNES_ROMS should not be in the F-Zero_Final directory, it should be in the same directory as your F-Zero_Final directory.

C:\Users\You\Directory\SNES_ROMS <- ROMs go here

C:\Users\You\Directory\F-Zero_Final <- Code and xkas.exe goes here

A corrupted file is the result. It's just not working.

I'm just glad I'm not the only one who's having issues to patch.

[Grego]

@HeavyMetalRocker1988:

It looks like it can't find F-Zero.sfc... not sure why as it looks like everything else is correct.

Please do this:

1.) Open a command prompt, type "cmd" into the run textbox in your start bar and hit enter
2.) Type "cd C:\Users\You\Directory\SNES_ROMS" into the command prompt and hit enter, this will take you to your SNES_ROMS directory
3.) Type "dir" and hit enter

Take a picture of the command prompt and post it, it looks like everything else is working correctly and is named right so I want to verify your file extensions are correct.

[ShadowOne333]

May I ask, and with all due respect of course, why not provide an IPS/XDelta/BPS patch of the hack instead of having to compile it using xkas or a batch script?
I'm just legitimately curious, that's all

[HeavyMetalRocker1988]

https://bin.smwcentral.net/u/31036/10.png

F-Zero.sfc is located in the SNES_ROMS Folder. But how can it be there Nothing to be found then?

[Mugi]

it's because your file is named F-Zero.sfc.smc instead of F-Zero.sfc

you propably have "known file extensions" hidden in windows, thus it doesn't display the .smc extension for you.

just go to the directory in command prompt and type "rename F-Zero.sfc.smc F-Zero.sfc"  and try again.

[HeavyMetalRocker1988]

It worked, but there's a scrambled screen shown in the last 5 Courses.

https://bin.smwcentral.net/u/31036/11.png

And the Gameplay is corrupted.

[Grego]

@ShadowOne333

Because it is combining two roms into one.  Any bps or ips patch would contain a copy of gp2 within it.

@Mugi

Thank you for helping him, this seems to be fairly difficult for some people, we need people to help spread the word/help the less fortunate.

@HeavyMetalRocker1988

Please repeat these steps and post the image again:

1.) Open a command prompt, type "cmd" into the run textbox in your start bar and hit enter
2.) Type "cd C:\Users\You\Directory\F-Zero_Final" into the command prompt and hit enter, this will take you to your F-Zero_Final directory
3.) Type "apply_patch.bat" and hit enter

Also, please check the crc of your gp2 rom.

[HeavyMetalRocker1988]

https://bin.smwcentral.net/u/31036/12.png
https://bin.smwcentral.net/u/31036/13.png

The crc of gp2 is C4808858.

The new file ain't corrupted, but the last 5 tracks are still messed up.

[Mugi]

again, your command line says that F-zero_Grand_Prix_2.sfc is not found.

this is because your file is named F-zero_Grand_Prix_2.sfc.smc
