I've come across an old topic here mentioning the translated C&E's Beggar Prince (by Super Fighter Team) resetting after trying to get the healing spell from the mage nearly at the very beginning of the game. I made some investigation and finally found a ROM that has the Super Fighter Team's logo removed and no resetting issue. I don't know if it is legit to put a link here, but if it wouldn't break any rules I can give the file. Hovewer, the in-game save feature doesn't seem to work. When I try to write my progress into any slot, nothing happens - there is just a jingle and the slots still remain empty.

I've found some short videos showing both a ROM hack and a hack made on a real hardware cartridge that has all the issues (game reset and save not working) fixed.

The comments under the videos are closed though, and the author didn't leave any info on how he did that. Is it possible to achieve the same results somehow by hacking the existing ROMs, and what steps should be done for that? I don't have a flash cartridge to play on a hardware console but I'd still like to figure out how to make that for Kega Fusion 3.63 (that's the emulator I use for Sega MD most of the time).

Any ideas or desire to try and help with the ROM hack (as I'm out of the loop about that) would be appreciated.
Thanks a lot!

If the rules remain unchanged from back when this website was called "Pirate Games Central Forums" then you should be able to post a ROM file. If you look at each console's forum board you'll notice that there are places to upload ROMs, so I'd say you're probably allowed to do that

Edit: You may want to read up on those old rules just to be on the safe side. To my knowledge this was the last time they were updated
