Dreamcast Guides : Super Street Fighter/Puzzle 2 X Hacking

https://pastebin.com/9uhYHjTF

Use Family Guys Selfboot Pack v1.4 32-bit Edition and TOSEC GDI files to ensure you are working with quality files. Simply open the 1ST_READ.BIN with a hex tool and look for this string 1032 0D8B and replace it with 0800 0D8B and run binpatch.exe with all options unchecked but changed LBA value to 45000 on DP2 files 2_DP.BIN, MAIGO.BIN, SG_DPLDR.BIN to crack protection of GDI files. BTW this hack also works for Super Puzzle Fighter 2 X to get it selfbooting and has similar DIP switches to alter as they are "Arcade Perfect" ports of the CPS2 boards.

Thanks goes out to NRG for the help cracking this one, updated by atreyu187 of ReviveDC/DCCM on 1/24/2013

Introduction
============
  Super Street Fighter II X: Grandmaster Challenge for Matching Service
(SSF2X) is an arcade-perfect port for Sega Dreamcast which is only available
in Japan.  The North American arcade version is called "Super Street Fighter
II Turbo."  One of the great features of the DC port is the hidden dip switch
menu which allows you to tweak all kinds of settings, including the option
of enabling English victory quotes and endings.

  This document is a guide to secrets and the dip switch menu contained in
Super Street Fighter II X for Sega Dreamcast.

----------------------------------------------
  Highlight the desired character, press LP, enter the corresponding code
from the list below, and press LP. When a character is selected with this
code, he appears in his original "Street Fighter II" colours.  In the
following list only, L means Left on the D-Pad, R means Right on the D-Pad,
U means Up on the D-Pad, and D means Down on the D-Pad.

Character               Code
---------               ----
Ryu                     RRRL

Sagat                   UDDU
Vega (USA: M. Bison)    DUUD

Access EX Option Menu
---------------------
  To access the secret EX ("Extra") option menu, highlight "Options" at the
main menu, hold down L (or Z on the arcade stick/fighting pad), and press A.
For an English description of the options available in this menu, please
refer to my SSF2X Translation Guide.

Unlock Dip Switch Menu
----------------------
  Finish the game with the "Turbo" (normal) version and "Super" (SSF2)
version of each character. At the main menu, highlight "Options", hold down
Y and press Start.

Select Gouki
------------
  At the character selection screen, press START + LP + MP + HP
simultaneously.

Select Shin Gouki
-----------------
  Enable the hidden dip switch menu. Change switch "28" (the switch in the
3rd row, 9th column) to "1".  At the character selection screen,
press START + LK + MK + HK simultaneously.  Unlike regular Gouki, Shin Gouki
has a double air fireball.

Select Ten Gouki
-----------------
  Unlock the hidden dip switch menu. Set dip switches "27" and "28" to "1".
Switch "27" is the switch in the 3rd row, 8th column. Switch "28" is the
switch in the 3rd, row, 9th column. At the character selection screen,
press START + MP + HP + MK + HK simultaneously.  Ten Gouki is like Shin Gouki,
except he also has the Shun Goku Satsu Super move.


Dip Switch Menu Guide
=====================
  To unlock the hidden dip switch menu, finish the game with the "Turbo"
(normal) version and "Super" (SSF2) version of each character.

  To access the dip switch menu, highlight "Options" at the main menu, hold
down Y and press START.  A screen containing a grid of zeroes and ones will
appear, where a zero represents an "off" switch and a one represents an
"on" switch.  The programmers have provided several preset configurations
under the heading "Auto Setting", each of which is assigned to a date:

1993/10/03 ver
1994/02/23 ver
1994/05/29 ver
2000/12/22 ver
????/??/?? ver

  To select a preset configuration, highlight "Auto Setting", press A,
highlight the desired date and press A again.  To set the dip switches
manually, highlight "Manual Setting" and press A.

  In this guide, the switches are represented by a hexadecimal grid:

00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0a 0b 0c 0d 0e 0f
10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 1a 1b 1c 1d 1e 1f
20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 2a 2b 2c 2d 2e 2f
30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 3a 3b 3c 3d 3e 3f

  For example, the switch in the third row and fifth column is represented by
"24" and the switch in the second row and eleventh column is represented by
"1a".  Many of switches' functions are unknown; a list of the known switches
follows.  A description of each switch is given, and its behaviour when
turned "off" or "on" is listed.

Comments
--------
- When switch 19 is off, the game slows down when a player is stunned (not
  dizzied) by a projectile such as Ryu's fireball or Guile's sonic boom.
- When survival mode (switch 1e) is enabled, you have to fight all 16
  fighters in Arcade mode.  In this mode, players cannot continue or join in.
- When switch 2f is off, the introduction movie and music are taken from the
  arcade version of SSF2X.  When switch 2f is on, the intro movie and music
  are taken from the arcade version of SSF2.
- The effects of switch 2a (language) on various parts of the game are:
  Description           Off                 On
