What are your favorite romhacks?

no, the readme file straight up said that it could never work on the original hardware. it loads too much stuff at once.
Oh, I see.. Well, if that's the case they just have to make a way for it to load everything. It could probably be done, but a PC as far more reliable for that kind of issue.

here's a wiki page about it. it lists some of the options that need to be adjusted to get it to run properly.
you might know more about the workings of dolphin better than me, so you might know what exactly it is doing. i just went with what the readme said.

Ooh, no probably not if it puts  all the vanilla objects into a single area.. It could work but yeah that's a lot more than a normal hack would do. ::eggmanlaugh

yep. all 201 treasures, at least 1 of all 81 enemies and bosses [there can be duplicates], at least one of every possible room type used for dungeon layouts and i think it includes the random plants that you see in levels which are not counted as part of the level, but their own separate objects. this made it very hard for a randomizer to be made because the perplexing pool has a ton of objects loaded in all at once and sometimes the randomizer prototype would crash instantly if it loaded up that level.

This is an interesting Zelda 1 "total conversion".

I generally prefer romhacks that restore censored or removed content like in Breath of Fire IV, and the ones that replace English dubs with the original Japanese voice acting in games like Valkyrie Profile: Leneth.
Kingdom Hearts has those. Same for all the Working Designs stuff.
 
There are many good hacks out there. The first Double Dragon for the Genesis is a great conversion, but the hack made it even better. Double Dragon II isn't a bad game, it just has terrible controls! The MD version, even with the hack, is mediocre (the conversion, not the hack). Golden Axe Plus is spectacular, especially for 32x. I've always said I was hoping for an improved Altered Beast hack, even if only for the Genesis; there are plenty of them. :)

P.S. It's a shame that many shoot 'em ups and some conversions are single-player only.
 
Some of the romhacks over the years that have made me say "wow" are

Ys 4 TG-CD and Bulk Slash Saturn - Fan translations are awesome, fan translations that also fan dub a game? That's just incredibly impressive.

SMZ3 - There are tons of randomizers out there, but the smoothness of combining two amazing games into one has me coming back to it over and over again.

Also any mod that adds multiplayer to a game that didn't have it, being able to play Mario 64 split screen on real hardware 🤯
