Added the patch for the Rev. A or 1.1 version of the Golden Axe ROM.

The revision fixed some text and a graphical glitch on Death Adder.

Excuse me my ignorance, but this can only be played on a real MegaDirve? There is no emulator capable of running it? like the Snes9x.

Thanks for your attention.

No emulators are available currently. It can only be played using a MegaSD on a real Mega Drive or Genesis. The developer of Genesis Plus GX was interested in implementing MD+ functionality into his emulator, but that was 3 or 4 months ago and there's no sign of it yet.

Thanks for your answer, Relikk

This is SO good! Great work!

Thanks guys for everything!

I tried several ROMs of Golden Axe and I couldn't get it to work, the game was muted !!!

Are you using a MegaSD?

yes, im using on mega sd

Did you rename any of the audio files or change anything in the CUE file?

Also worth noting that there are two versions of the patch for the two different ROM revisions, make sure you're using the correct patch for the ROM you're using. You also need to have the patched ROM, the audio files and the CUE file in the same folder.

I managed to do it with other roms, like strider, monwalker, but this one is really having difficulties ... I left it in the same folder, I didn't change anything in the audio tracks or cue, I'm using the lunar to fix the rom

I honestly have no problems. Works fine here. The only thing I can think of is that you're using the wrong patch with whatever ROM you're using, or the ROM has a header and the patch is being offset by the header. No-Intro ROM's are recommended.

PC Engine CD OST added.

The Symphony cue file skips from TRACK 9 to TRACK 11 which makes the subsequent track numbers off by one. Is this correct?

FILE "09TheBattle.wav" WAVE
 TRACK 09 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 00:00:00
   REM LOOP 0
FILE "10ThiefsTheme.wav" WAVE
 TRACK 11 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 00:00:00
   REM NOLOOP

Track 10, whatever it was mapped to, isn't used in-game or in the sound test menu. It shouldn't have any adverse effects on a MegaSD, I've only seen problems on the version of MAME that supports MD+ that was never publicly released (and maybe any future emulators that might support it), because it wouldn't let you mount the CUE file with that missing track. That's why in my CUE file for the PC Engine OST, I have it mapped as a dummy track so that wouldn't happen.

It'll be fine on a MegaSD, I have no idea how it'll behave on a Mega Everdrive Pro with Krikzz's patches. But if it has problems then just add the extra track and map it to an existing track like I did in my PC Engine CUE below.

Code:

FILE "10_ThiefsTheme.wav" WAVE
  TRACK 10 AUDIO
    INDEX 01 00:00:00
    REM LOOP 1367
    REM COMMENT "This is a dummy track so the CUE file can be mounted in emulators without errors"

Excellent thank you. We've noticed that Golden Axe is freezing on MiSTer and I wondered if perhaps that had something to do with it. I'm going to try adding the dummy file and see if that fixes it. The other MSU-MD games seem to be working

That could be the reason then, yeah. MegaSD isn't particularly fussy about stuff like that. It's just looking for a track number in the CUE, and if it finds it there are no problems.

Seems to have worked. Played several levels with no freezes. Does this look correct to you?

Code:

FILE "09TheBattle.wav" WAVE
 TRACK 09 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 00:00:00
   REM LOOP 0
FILE "10ThiefsTheme.wav" WAVE
 TRACK 10 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 00:00:00
   REM NOLOOP
   REM COMMENT "This is a dummy track so the CUE file can be mounted in emulators without errors"
FILE "10ThiefsTheme.wav" WAVE
 TRACK 11 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 00:00:00
   REM NOLOOP

Looks good.

I noticed someone in the MiSTer Discord saying this...
