- Leg Dash defaulted to the L button.
- Generated passwords are saved into SRAM
- Control scheme saved into SRAM.
- Subtanks stop depleting at full health.
- Disabled double-tap to dash.(optional)
ONLY APPLY ONE PATCH:

Besides zsnes, it should run on all emulators.

The ultimate version of Mega Man X! (Just a couple suggestions)
Reviewed By: ShadowOne333 on 01 Jun 2020Finally, Mega Man X sees a proper boost in performance, and now the awful lag that plagued this game are no more!
And that’s not where it ends!
This hack adds a lot of Quality of Life change into Mega Man X to make it the definitive version of the game.
The subtank changes, the bugfixes, heck the SRAM option alone was enough to get me into this hack.
I would just like to suggest 2 additional features to this hack, so that hopefully the author takes them into consideration:
1) Port the Hadouken changes from “Capsule Fix” into this:https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/3409/ Mostly so that you can get the Hadouken upgrade on the 1st try, instead of dying multiple times until it appears. The other 2 changes for Hadouken are welcomed too if deciding to implement them as well.
2) Port the Air Dash / Walljump hack from “Capsule Fix” as well (originally made by Justin3009) https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/3409/ http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4390/ Basically, have the dash enabled by default from the very beginning, and once the player gets the Boots upgrade, they gain the air dash as a reward. This will give the players a ton more flexibility when tackling bosses, and more replayability to the game, instead of always going for Chill Penguin’s stage 1st just to get the dash. Also, the Walljump patch from the same hack allows the player to press and hold the ‘A’ button like the later X games to do a stronger jump from the wall.
All in all, this hack is an absolute must have! I hope the developer takes these two suggestions into consideration for an upcoming update.
What are you waiting for? Make this your definitive Mega Man X version!
