G'evening fellow Lemmings fans.

You remeber the ROM Hack of Lemmings Colour Palette & Level Title Fixes for the Sega MegaDrive/Genesis I done months ago.
I decided to give the Super Nintendo version the same treatment. with some other changed too. :lem-mindblown:

What are those changes you ask?

Well for those who got the SNES Lemmings games for the  NTSC-U and PAL regions. You noticed there were so many changes to some level due to Nintendo of America's censorship laws. I found a way to restore the original levels that were stored in the ROM which was absolutely mind blowing. I gone and restore them so you can play those levels.

I also taken upon me to also rename ALL the 5 SUNSOFT levels to what they are called on the SEGA MegaDrive/Genesis version.

=================================================

CHANGES AND FIXES:

Dirt levels no longer the pale brown look and now a rich red and golden yellow just like the Amiga version.
Yellow Pillar palette now match the Amiga version, now a proper golden Yellow rather than a bright lemon yellow.
Blue Crystal palette now matches the Amiga palette including the very dark one now black rather than BG blue.
Red Hell Fire Levels showing more reddish grey rather than a yellowish grey like the SNES retail version, Blue bricks are more Aqua Blue than a purplish blue..
Marble Levels now Pink and Lavender blue rather than Beige skin colour & purple.
SUNSOFT Intro at the start is now Blue gradient with SUNSOFT logo now Gold rather than Pink gradient and Silver.
The Game Title has improved a lot, Now a Mid Green gradient to replace the pale Light Green.
Improved the Level title & results writing palettes to be more like the Amiga Version.

LEVEL TITLE FIXES:

Level 17 Tricky – Diet Lemmingade
Level 28 Tricky – Lost something?
Level 3 Taxing – Heaven can wait (we hope!!!!)
Level 16 Taxing – Marry Poppins' land
Level 11 Player 2 – Just for fun or to the death?

ALL SUNSOFT LEVELS TITLES RENAMED TO THE ONES SHOWN ON THE SEGA MEGADRIVE/GENESIS VERSION:

Level 1 SUNSOFT – Two heads are better...
Level 2 SUNSOFT – I am A.T.
Level 3 SUNSOFT – Private room available
Level 4 SUNSOFT – Final impediment
Level 5 SUNSOFT – Lemmings' Ark

RESTORED LEVELS THAT WERE CENSORED BY NINTENDO OF AMERICA:

Level 21 Tricky – All the 6's ........
Restored Level 16 Fun & Level 3 Taxing level to show HEAVEN than PARADISE!
Level 24 Taxing – Take a running jump..... Has it's original level layout restored to show DEATH rather than TERMINATE.
Level 17 2 Player mode Map is restored.

"NOTE: Do NOT patch this Hack with the Lemmings v1.0 or v1.1 USA Revision ROM or the Lemmings Japan ROM. it will not work. You MUST patch this with the Lemmings Europe PAL ROM."

I can confirm this ROM hack is compatible to run on real hardware using the SD2SNES Flashcart on a real Super Nintendo Hardware on a SNSP-CPU-1CHIP-02 motherboard Revision .
