Mega Man X2 FastROM Plus
Rockman X2 · ロックマンX2
Builds on kandowontu's FastROM speed-up of Mega Man X2 with a set of quality of life options: double-tap dash, smarter sub-tanks, saved settings and faster menus and dialogue.
What's new
llethas started from kandowontu's FastROM patch, which makes the game run faster and smoother, and added comforts on top of it:
- an EXTRA OPTIONS menu with a double-tap dash toggle and sub-tanks that stop draining once your health is full
- passwords, controls and options saved to battery memory
- dash mapped to L by default
- quicker dialogue boxes; holding Y or B no longer skips text by accident (START still does), and START skips the boss introductions
- faster ways back to the main menu from the option and password screens
It works together with the MSU-1 audio patch and the Relocalization Addendum.
Playing it
