Bao Qing Tian MMC3 Conversion
« on: May 31, 2012, 04:10:02 PM »
I recently got a real cart of "Bao Qing Tian" (a crappy Famicom pirate). Out of boredom I ran the dump in Nestopia and looked in the data, the data seemed VERY similar to what MMC3 used (256k PRG & 256k CHR), I then changed the mapper to mapper #4. The game seems to work perfectly fine  :) . If you want to download this conversion, go to the link below.

Mapper 4 is actually MMC3, but thanks anyway.

[/quote]What a "coherent" answer that was...  ^_^

Okay, on my part. When I tried to run this ROM on Nestopia, the background was all blank.

MMC3 is one of the commonest mappers there is, I'm sure if it worked fine on that no one would have bothered assigning it a new mapper in the first place.

Here's a patch that can be applied to a normal Bao Qing Tian rom that makes it work with mapper 4.
Palettes are altered to give you no more black screen.

Not perfect but better than nothing.

The name of the file is correct, it is an IPS file.
Use a patching utility like Lunar IPS and apply the patch to a normal Bao Qing Tian NES file.
The correct filename is "1 Mapper 4.ips"
Also that MediaFire link's been down for sometime.

I was talking about the mediafire link. Wasn't referring to the ips. Thanks for the info about the patch. If you or somebody would reupload the game. That would be nice.

The MediaFire file is lost to time, even having scourged the web archive.
Here's an NES file.

I have made my own mapper 4 hack of the game that retains the original colors. I have only tested this by playing through it with a cheat. This implies that issues may remain, but that the game is finishable.
