House of The Dead 2 Naomi Red Blood

[TobyRieper]

Hey guys, anyone have the bin file or know how to play HOTD2 with red blood instead of green?I used a bios file CRC32 16b4e74d, hod2-rb.bin. Unfortunatley it doesnt work.
I erased the bios and re flashed it with both epr-21330 and epr-21331. They both worked great and i flashed them excactly the same as I did the blood mod one so that rules out any problem with the chip or the way im flashing it.

Cheers folks!

you should use US BIOS (EPR-21330) and then change blood color in game options. when running with Japan (epr-21329) or Export (epr-21331) BIOSes game will work in censored mode only.
there is no need to do any "mods", no idea wtf is "hod2-rb.bin" you mentioned.

Hi,
I did try that file but the options were missing? Maybe I got the wrong file. If you could provide the right file for me to use or checksum then I'll try again. Is there anything I have to change on the Naomi itself or just the ic27? New to this hardware so not sure about jumper settings, dipswitches etc.
Cheers

are you sure you was cared enough to check game settings/options ?
NAOMI TEST MODE -> GAME TEST MODE -> GAME ASSIGNMENTS -> BLOOD COLOR

Maybe I got the wrong file. If you could provide the right file for me to use or checksum then I'll try again.

google for MAME romset, hod2bios.zip from it
epr-21330.ic27 CRC 9e3bfa1b SHA1 b539d38c767b0551b8e7956c1ff795de8bbe2fbc

Is there anything I have to change on the Naomi itself or just the ic27?

nothing else, just IC27 BOOT ROM
