📋 About This Mod
============================================================== # Nightmare Busters - Bug Fix 1. 1 + Extra Options w/ or w/o Infinite Lives (SNES) Two separate patches are included in archive.zip, both built on top of upsilandre’s Bug Fix 1. 1, which fixes a crash caused by certain magic items and a collision issue between items and the ground Patch 1 – Bug Fix 1. 1 + Extra Option – Automatically unlocks the hidden “Turbo Shot” and “Level Select” options in the Options menu right from startup, without needing to enter the usual secret title‑screen code (Y, R, L, Down, Down, Right). – Because the input check is bypassed, the confirmation sound normally played when entering the code no longer triggers. Patch 2 – Bug Fix 1. 1 + Extra Option + Infinite Lives – Includes everything from Patch A. – Additionally grants Infinite Lives to our favorite leprechaun. ENJOY !
Nightmare Busters [Bug Fix + Extra Options] is a SNES romhack that includes two patches built on upsilandre's Bug Fix 1.1, which fixes a crash caused by certain magic items. One patch adds extra options, the other adds extra options with infinite lives. It's for players who want a stable experience with optional cheats.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fixes a game-breaking crash from magic items, so you won't lose progress mid-run.
- Gives you a choice: play with extra options or add infinite lives for a more relaxed experience.
- Two patches in one archive means you can pick your preferred difficulty without extra downloads.
⚠️ Cons
- Zero endorsements and downloads, so it's untested by the community—use at your own risk.
- No detailed instructions on what the extra options actually do, so you're flying blind until you test.
- Compatibility risk: built on a specific base patch (upsilandre's 1.1), so it may conflict with other mods or require that exact version.
This is for SNES romhack players who want to experience Nightmare Busters without the crash bug, and who appreciate having optional cheats like infinite lives. It's also for completionists who want a stable version of the game to finish it.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Apply the patch to a clean, unmodified ROM of Nightmare Busters (SNES) to avoid conflicts.
- If you're new to romhacking, use a patching tool like Lunar IPS or Floating IPS to apply the .ips or .bps file from the archive.
- Test the patch early in the game to confirm the crash fix works before investing hours.
