Has anyone tried to play Urban Strike on Sega genesis core?
The game crashes just few minutes after start for me.
my ROM is a good one from Smoke Monster archive..

it's such a shame because it's a good game and the best version of it.(the SNES version -including on original hardware-has very choppy low frame rate and unplayable)

What is the checksum of the rom file? Does it crash randomly in the middle of the first mission?

You can calculate the CRC32 checksum with various programs, for example this online tool: https://www.romhacking.net/hash/

I played through the entire first scenario (although I failed the 5th mission). No crash. I used a SRAM hack of the game but I am certain that the original rom is not more prone to crash.

CRC32 of original rom: cf690a75
CRC32 of hack: 329a851c

No freezes/crashes here with the mentioned No-Intro Pack Rom. Even with "Turbo" on "High" and tons of cheats enabled.
