Hack description

This hack restores the original color palettes for all the enemies that got censored in the American version. It also restores Dean's original dialogue from the beta version and fixes text errors that were made by Capcom as well.

The patch will also work on the European version as well.

The 0xED hex editor was used for this project.

Very good, but I feel like there's more could be done here.impurekind2021-05-02Version Final

What's been added is good, but I would really like to see someone replace the Dean character with Cody from the original (could simply be a sprite swap in-game, and possibly also with some updated art to replace Dean in the cut-scenes if going the extra mile), and maybe also add in a simpler way to activate the super moves (as I can never remember what the hell I'm supposed to press, or it just doesn't work very reliably). Beyond that, I don't think there's much else can be done to make this a significantly better beat 'em up.

Should use the no-intro deinterleaved rom as base (FIXED)SCO2017-07-24Version Final

By using a interleaved rom this more or less makes sure that it's difficult to use without that exact same version because while there are programs to deinterleave (nsrt) they don't do the reverse.

Edit: This was a mistake from the submitter and it's fixed now.
