Street Fighter II' Special Champion Edition: 3-Buttons Arcade"

This patch aims to elevate the Arcade experience by introducing several refinements implemented as cleanly as possible:

New in V3.1

Touched up some aesthetic elements from the Hardware Test and Boot Process.

New melodies for the 12 stages!:

When a fighter is low on health, the game plays a sped-up version of the main theme. This version restores the original Arcade melodies and converts them to the sound driver format of the final version.

12 new melodies lost from the Coin-op version, music listenable from the options menu.
They trigger at the exact same point as in the Arcade.
Instruments, octaves, and levels adjusted with the highest possible precision; new versions with improvements will be released.

New in V3.0

3-Button Support!:

Remap any action to any button on a 3-button Sega gamepad (Start now pauses the game instead of switching P/K). Fully compatible with 6-button pads. (Hold Start before a match to reconfigure).

Randomized 8 Stages:

Restores the random opponent order for the first 8 stages (just like in The World Warrior and Super SFII), which was missing in SFII’ CE and Turbo. Each game now is a new challenge!

Authentic Boot Sequence:

Replicates the arcade hardware check and incorporates a credits screen recognizing the developers behind the foundational patches utilized in this project.

Accurate Bonus Stage Sequencing:

The progression of bonus stages now mirrors the original arcade release.

Score Reset Upon Continuing:

Complementing the SRAM patch, continuing a game now correctly resets the player’s score to ensure legitimate high-score tracking.

Additional Minor Tweaks:

Various small code-level optimizations have been implemented. The sound and graphics engines remain entirely untouched, preserving the pristine quality of the original work + other mods updates.

Author’s Note

The creation of this patch incorporates three existing modifications to capture the authentic arcade atmosphere. Building upon the exceptional work of those creators was essential to moving this project forward, and this release serves as a token of appreciation for their contributions. Thank You!
