Following my crusade against CPS3 protection, I created an unencrypted BIOS, an unencripted ROMSET and an unencripted MAME's cps3.c. I put everything together (it's easier to say that to do) and finally I run it.
Good news is that it works great and ONLY one bios, SFIII NewGen works with all 6 games.
Actually if you check the code when the game is running it doesn't go back to the BIOS (at least I didn't see it), what makes me believe that once it starts running the game BIOS is not needed anymore.
If we press the service button AND select rewrite the game or the graphics, then we'll jump back to the BIOS.
Another interesting thing is that the Service menu is located in the game code, not in the BIOS.
I also managed to remove all protections in this decrypted BIOS and now it takes any code. I still need to remove the Capcom format CD check.
Unfortunately for some strange reason (probably related to the encyrption) this BIOS can only update the char roms, it doesn't update the code.
Another problem, probably originated by the same reason as above, it gives a failure in the SIMM memory check of the BIOS, but only in the SIMMS that hold the code, the rest are OK...needs further checking.
More news soon.
