I wanted to check differences between ROMs, and to research that I've hexed my M6.dsm to (almost) synch with JP ROM:
http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/1655783369/M6.dsm still requires OHKO cheat because the lag being different, the RNG also is, and I forgot how that formula works so I can't hex around it
HP address is 1A14A8
changes that came up:
1. JP ROM seems to be much faster at starting the game and has less lag in general, making me have to add in a lot of blank frames
2. JP's Grit's COP takes more time, probably due to the longer name, this doesn't affect the final in-game time because the game is smart enough not to count this screen
3. for some weird reason, JP ROM has 1 frame of lag less compared to US's right after attacking the first Neo
I might do the Campaign TAS using JP ROM, seeing as it apparently has less lag
this is all on DeSmuME's v.0.9.6 though, but I think it holds true for 0.9.7 too
