Title: Pyron's Genesis color hacks
Post by: lukester on January 11, 2018, 03:20:14 PM
I don't know who else knows this, but someone named Pyron on Sega-16 has created a ton of genesis color hacks, that replace some of the dull colors with much more pleasing ones

Some of the differences are night and day! This link has all the IPS patches.

This is very interesting...

Also, sadly, on a more personal note, the temptation to recycle an old advertisement is too strong...

He is a super skilled guy, I think he was working on a hack for Punisher as well but is not done yet.

I first heard of him on an episode of game sack.

One day I plan to ever drive the way the pros do.

With fully patched games that include better translations new colors and all the trimmings.

But I am to lazy to do the work. Lol

Anyone happen to just let me dump their rom and files set onto a SD card for evwrdrive use?

Other guys have also done some amazing color hacks too.

The Punisher hack may not get completed because the game is so limited in the firsf place.

That's what kills me.  The game has some major shortcomings, but it's already some crazy expensive game on the Genesis anyway.

It’s okay game. Not bad but unfortantly I feel it would have translated better on the SNES from the arcade.

I want to say cart only isn’t to expensive.

I just did an ebay price check on Punisher out of curiosity.  I am consistently amazed what some games that I consider sub-par go for.
