What's new

UPDATED Release! NBA JAM Tournament Edition SE 5.02

The trick appears to be rename it nbajamte to nbajam05 and then it works. If I can only get aspect ratio to stay 16:9 so that it's fullscreen that's my only issue remaining. Thanks for the advice on hbmame.

Griffey and Jordan on the same team is pretty boss.

Thanks so much for this!

I wanted a flyer and marquee to have my frontend display for this edition, so enlisted the help of AI. Not perfect, it struggled with the net in the logo, so had to leave it out altogether. It also summarized points from the whatsnew txt, I might have added some different ones. Still, happy enough with it for my frontend . Attached is compressed, bigger one here:

Here is my attempt at a arcade marquee for this version of the game if anyone is interested.

Midway did special versions for Payton and Griffey. This is that version. I've fixed up all the source and wrote my own tools to get the source to even compile properly.
This was quite a lot of work, i had to redo the tooling for the gfx roms to build properly.

This is all original. Nothing hex edited, hacked, whatever. This rom set never saw any arcades, and was only in Midway's offices and Paytons' and Griffeys' homes.

Enjoy! (

No other apparent issues with SE. Boots and plays without any other issues. All roms show up green and pulled each one a verified them with the code. Using 27c040 roms.

Thanks for the reply. No rush on the fix. I thought it was an issue with one of the roms.
 
Thank you for this!

I've had rewind on my event machine a long time and trying to catch up here .

So can this special edition also work on a non-TE, original NBA Jam?

Or is it another thread and another hack that can of great original NBA jam?

I did it without issues, but I needed to burn also the U3 Sound eprom from T.E. (a 27C010A)
 
Thx so much! I can convert my boards then for sure.

Does anyone know if this hack also restores the MK ninjas and the cheerleaders on "Team ?"
 
Yes, everything from TE 2.0 is there in the base game. It has the fixes from 4.0, but restores the cut content from 3.0 upwards.
This version was likely built for Griffey personally, and has all the good stuff active: Cheerleaders, MK Guys, Developers. Backboard breaking. Goro in the audience .. :)
