If you're keeping track, this works great on zx32.
Also works on ZXDS, although there's a need to dive into the tape menu whenever the game needs to load data. Luckily, it tells you exactly what it's searching for, so you can get on with the next fight without too much waiting around.
Hi Presh, thank you for this update. I played the new file, again, on a 128 equipped with a DivMMC EnJoy and ESXDOS 0.8.9.
Everything was going well until I noticed something strange while playing as Sagat. When he blocks an attack, the winning stance sprite (i.e. standing with crossed arms and laughing) is displayed, instead of the blocking sprite. Please investigate into this.
Again, I would like to suggest you what I did in my previous comment: a TR-DOS disk image file, the possibility of different colour combinations to be selected while playing like in the US Gold conversion, scoring, fighter portraits and end-of-game messages.
Sadly there was no blocking sprite for Sagat in the original release, and the victory pose was the best I could come up with from what was available! 😳 (although I do think it's kinda menacing the way he just laughs at your attacks!)
Source will be released in the coming weeks, as I don't feel comfortable developing for hardware which I don't own and therefore can't test on a real-world Spectrum/clone. Scope of the original project was to get something which would run on my +2 via cassette, which it does 🙂 and DivMMC compatibility is also incredibly useful to have, though it may vary by model... I'm so glad it works on my Future and seems to on many others!
There was no memory left for scoring or other mechanics, although disk/DivMMC loading could allow these by ditching code for e.g. title screen once the game begins. I may work on an expanded DivMMC version in future, but no promises... and I'd be happy for it to become a community project to see how much further others can take it! 😁
It looks like absolutely amazing, but unfortunately the game doesn't start on my ZX Spectrum + 128k. I use a DivIDE 2k20 AY and esxdos, the screen remains black when I launch the tap file and the led activity of the CF card is on continuously. It's the only game that fails, all the others 48k & 128k games are working perfectly on my spec.
There was a bug in the loader code which only affected some devices but not others. I've uploaded a fixed .tap file - please let me know if it works now? Thanks 🙂
Absolutely superb, very well done - master piece actually given the limitation of the hardware... You are a true programming sorcerer! And you've made the 13 year old boy in this late 40s man very happy. And plays fantastic using a DivMMC and my grey +2 Spectrum from my childhood. Even with just one fire button, which I thought would limit its play-ability, but absolutely not - vertical and horizontal axis for punches, diagonal axis for kicks and sweeps - perfect! The controls are exactly how it should have always been mapped in my view for one button controllers. Thoroughly enjoyable - and a game I wanted for my Spectrum back in the day... And the in game music, the fact its there - just wow. Very well done - pure magic of the strongest kind :) Thank you.
Sorry I forgot to mention it, as you requested it, I am using a DivMMC Future with my +2. I think SF2 came out early 1993 for the Spectrum ZX from memory, and it coincided with the end of the Spectrum's commercial life really. The port of SF2 is like the metaphorical equivalent of getting Doom working an Amiga - its the same 'nemesis'/ seismic changing game really ending one era and starting another in my view. So the fact you got it working so beautifully is truly wonderful & amazing. And the beautiful paradox about it being 33 years later. Back in the day as a child I wanted the home port to be identical to the arcade. Now I'd play a good port on my +2 over the arcade any day of the week, because its anchored in childhood with some wonderful memories playing on my Spectrum :) That and I like seeing the impossible done by supremely talented folks like yourself ;-)
It took me a little time to get used to the controls, and I was surprised when I managed to win some bouts, but at the end of the video, I got to a "Load tape..." section, and then it all ground to a halt. How do you deal with that, please?
The tape needs "rewinding" to find the other character's data... I don't know which emulator you're using, but on Spectaculator there is a "stop at end of tape" option which needs disabling to allow the tape to loop indefinitely. So you'll need to find your emulators similar option or "rewind" button. Hope that info can help you, and if so please reply here with details so I can add the info for other players if you find it! Many thanks 🙂
Tools > Options > Cassette Recorder > Playback Options > Stop at end of tape Untick that one, but be sure to have all the options below it ticked (Enable Fast loading, Flashloading and Edge detection) 🙂
Spectacular, congratulations! Could you do a port of the first "Mortal Kombat" in the future? I would also like to know if this could be ported to ZX Spectrum Next. It would be nice to have this with stages and characters in the classic 8 colours of the Spectrum.
Works as a charm in ESPectrum. No problems seen with fast loading. ESPectrum "Fast tap index" feature can be used too (it speeds up, making load almost instant, loading taps with many blocks as Final Pack's one) but as your .tap don't have too many blocks it makes practically no difference.
I played it at 125% and 150% speed with sound and it's quite enjoyable! :D
As pointed below, a .trd version would be wonderful. ESPectrum and many other emulators can load .trd disks in any model of emulated Speccy not only Pentagon.
Also support for second Kempston button or even more buttons would be nice. There are a lot of possibilities today for real machines and emulators to take advantage of modern gamepads.
Anyway, as said at start of post: Congrats! Great work!
On "The Spectrum" from RetroGames, some of the tape loading hangs. I am using the .tap file. Ryu works for example, but if I try to play as Balrog, it loads Balrog, but when trying to load his enemy, it will just hang.
Honestly though, this is an amazing effort. I can't believe what you have achieved here. Phenomenal!
The tape needs "rewinding" to find the other character's data... I don't know how you'd do this on The Spectrum, but on Spectaculator there is a "stop at end of tape" option which needs disabling to allow the tape to loop indefinitely. Hope that info can help you, and if so please reply here with details so I can add the info for other players if you find it! Many thanks 🙂
I know this wasn't asked, but in case anyone was wondering: The TZX files work fine. You just have to switch tapes/sides with Home>Media select when needed and then use the tape controls to pause/stop as required (for the benefit of anyone yet to try this: Home+Down for tape menu).
For the TAP file... it works fine until it doesn't. The tape controls are unresponsive and unless I'm missing something, you'll have to use the following workaround:
- When it freezes on a "Insert Side" screen press Home to go to the options menu.
- Go to Media Select and press the listed button to clear the "current media"
- Close the media select and then the options menu to return to the game
- it still won't work because now there's no "tape", so head back to the options menu and into Media select
- re-select Sweet Fightin' +II and close the media select and then the options menu
- the game will now auto-load to the required fight and you can go about your brawling.
You may have to do this again during your playthrough, depending on what data the game needs, but it's still a lot quicker than using the TZX files.
The seemingly pointless step of returning to the game without a tape inserted is because even if you remove and re-add the TAP straight away, The Spectrum doesn't seem to recognise that anything has changed.
Thanks for that. Those steps didn't work for me unfortunately, but I found an easier way to work around the issue. Just add an additional tap file for another game when starting SF2 and then when you get the freeze on the insert tape screen, use Home and L button to switch to the second tape, and then Home and L button to switch back to the SF2 tape. This takes only a second to do and works perfectly!
Bug report... on your loading routine, after checking the header of a tape block, you expect register C to be different than 0, why? The return of C register on the loading routine is not a documented behavior (can have different values 0x01, 0x21, 0xFE, 0xDE...)
Not a bug.... JR NC checks the carry flag, not what the C register contains... and LD_BYTES returns carry flag unset (NC) on error, so this is the error handling (JR NC) for an error within that CALL to LD_BYTES.
Please see the full screenshot. The first JR NC is not relevant (it was in red due to a breakpoint I put on my ZEsarUX emulator). See the LD A,C just some opcodes below that ;)
Ah, ok! Didn't see the rest of that image before, and I'm far, far away from my computer at the moment (about 2500 miles, haha) so I'll have to pick this up when I get back! Cheers 🙂
looking at that code, I don't see any use of the C register before calling the rom load routine (and you would also need a push/pop probably). C register on return from the rom load call is undefined (usually value 01, 0x21 and others) but it doesn't tell anything relevant (I think it's the last value sent to the port feh to draw the border stripes). So I think that's a bug in your code ;) Some emulators like Fuse return C=01, others like mine (ZEsarUX) didn't return anything on C register, so the game was failing and that's the reason I started debugging it, hehehe. Now I'm returning C=01 and yours is the only game that failed loading (of course this is the "fast load" tape method, if I do a "slow" load (realtime) it was working. I assume your game doesn't load on other emulators either
OK, so I think I've figured out the issue here... the section below your breakpoint (red line) is supposed to check the filename in the header... check 10 characters (LD B, $0A) and JR to tl_header (JR NZ, $A14B) if any characters don't match.
The highlighted LD A, C should really be LD A, B - however we already know that B=0 after the final DJNZ, making this extra check redundant!
I will test and release an update once I'm confident that this is the issue... it is likely replicated in the main code loader so I'll need to fix there too.
Verlo impresiona, pero jugarlo y tener la sensación de estar jugando al original de arcade no tiene precio. Muchas, muchas gracias por esta obra de arte
ZXPresh congratulations on achieving the impossible with such a highly technical game running on such a limited system.
Suggestions for the final release:
- The game name should be changed to simply reflect the original arcade title for the sake of accuracy and authenticity as it already infringes copyright. It would look much better to present it as Street Fighter II: The World Warrior with a well designed colour logo that avoids colour clash. The name change would be the most important suggestion.
- An MGT disk image version for DS/DD 3.5" 800K (720K formatted) disks as this would be suitable for the +D Disk System such as the PlusDLite.
For future revisions of the mass storage version of the game (non-tape version) may I suggest the following:
1. Kempston multi-button joypad support for Sega Master System (2-button), and Sega Mega Drive (6-button) controllers
2. Possible speech when SFX and music are not used such as "fight", "you win", "you lose", "round 1" etc.
This may require additional sound channels and could require the addition of a 6-channel AY TurboSound chip being present. TurboSound is fast becoming a common standard via add-on expansion for original hardware and built-in to clones like the Sizif-512 and ZX Next.
3. Add the arcade "continue" screen with the number counter and character portrait
4. Use the "Versus" screen before each level to display the fighter and opponent for that match
5. The inclusion of bonus levels and the points system
6. Include the world map and flight path to show the level progression for the player before each match
7. Include a mono "attract mode" screen showing the two fighters in front of the office tower block followed by character bio and stats
8. Include each characters win quote after each match
9. Each character has a different ending when the player completes the game.
I have to admit I am completely amazed with this fantastic release. It's 100 times better than U.S. Gold conversion, with difference. Of course, visually looks very good, but its playability is disastreous.
But this remake IS THE BEST AND NEEDED ONE. My congratulations, ZXPresh!
Tested without issues on my +2 with a Divtiesus Maple Edition divMMC as you'd already tested with a divMMC Future.. Have you thought about doing a native esxDOS version which loads the files directly off the card rather than having to access the .tap file sequentially? I've hacked together a version from the .tap file and I can send you my changes to do this if you're interested - it makes the loading faster and you can take out all those 'stop the tape' messages. :)
Hi Presh, congratulations on your amazing "homage"; this is how the Spectrum conversion of Street Fighter II should have looked and played back in 1992.
I can confirm that the game works on a real 128 Spectrum with a DivMMC EnJoy interface and on the latest version of SpecEmu, with and without DivIDE emulation.
If I may suggest you something in order to further improve an already impressing result, it would be:
a disk-based file, preferably TR-DOS, because it is readable by many emulators and compatible with ESXDOS for use with SD card-based interfaces;
fighters portraits before the match, like in an enhanced hack of Street Fighter II you can easily find on the Web;
end-of-game messages for each character;
the possibility of changing the stage colours;
scoring.
Thanks again for your time and effort and for making it available to us all.
An incredible achievement!!! Congratulations! Maybe you can add dandanator version? And if you add de zx0 compression what level of reduction can you archive? And finally final fight maybe your next challenge? ;) again thanks for gift us this master peace for our beloved little speccy! :)
Because they're from Thailand. Well, it's never officially canon confirmed Bison/Vega is Thai, but working on the assumption that character nationality = stage then he's from Thailand.
exelente juego y programacion como dice los fans que somo nosotros no es ilegal si se hace sin fines de lucro y homenaje a todos Mi querida Speccy , CAPCOM , el Street Fighter y los arcades casi nada y asi es como se avanza en la vida todos casi siempre copia algo bueno de otros programadores Exencia y gusto a programar algo y no quedarse.
What a fantastic version! If you have a Spectrum clone with a faster processor, I recommend check it at 5.2MHz. At this frequency, the game with music runs with speed almost like on arcade. Is it planned to use a three-button Mega Drive pad that uses e.g. Sizif 512?
An exceptional version of sf2, the one it always deserved. It has everything: great gameplay, smooth movement, fantastic music... everything. Congratulations on this talented work.

Any chance of a +3 DSK image for +3 owners? (or +3 with Gotek)
Very good new fighting game, fun to play. I added it to my video along with other games released in March. Hope you like and share the video.
Making it required guts, doing a good job required mad, phat skillz. I salute you, my friend...that's a top job.
Incredible port, It is so good, I featured it on my channel
Estoy alucinado. Increíble !
I just finished it, it is really excellent. Some opponents are not easy if not played in the easiest mode.
very good

Impresionante lo que has conseguido! Esa velocidad de movimientos no pensaba que fuese posible en un Spectrum! Como lo has hecho?
Works very well on Spectaculator (Tested on latest version 9.1)
Incredible work, congrats. Thanks for sharing.
Just imagine if this game was released 35 years ago!
Game of the year,
Love it

Increíble, enhorabuena a los desarrolladores por llevar aún mas al limite al Zx
Why have Sagat and M Bison got Thai flags above??
Because they're from Thailand. Well, it's never officially canon confirmed Bison/Vega is Thai, but working on the assumption that character nationality = stage then he's from Thailand.

Pedazo de juego.
Amazing! Congratulatios!
