Rockman X2 Sample Version Released

The third and final prototype I'm releasing this month is a sample version of Rockman X2. (You can find the previous X3 prototypes here and here)

There are a number of differences going on here: different graphics, different level layouts, audio differences, text differences, debug controls, glitches, and other changes are present. One neat difference I'd like to point out is the Irregular select screen has the "X" icon with DATA written beneath it, just like in the Rockman X2 manual. The grey tower is also labeled as "I.H", indicating that this building is, and always has been, Irregular Hunter HQ. Neat! Check out the TCRF page here for more differences.

You can download this prototype (and lots of other prototypes, sample versions, etc.) from the green "Betas & Protos" button on the right side of the blog. The file is "Rockman X2 Sample.rar".

CAUTION: This ROM will NOT function correctly in most emulators. Running it in something like SNES9x will produce emulation errors:

• Morph Moth's first form will be badly bugged and his second form's beam attack is broken
• Some Cx4 wireframe objects will not load
• Some stage images on the select screen do not move into proper position
• Misc. errors

You might need to try a few alternatives to get it to run properly. Everyone's done all they can with this one.
