I am trying to play Bio World, which is a SMB3 hack listed in the Hack List thread in ROM Hacking-Related Releases.
However, it does not work. I have tried patching it to both a PRG0 and PRG1 ROM, and the same results occur.

On FCE Ultra:
the game freezes at curtains, ground sometimes flashes for a second at the bottom of the screen

On Nestopia:
the game freezes at curtains, pressing a button causes it to report "CPU jam!" and the same ground flashing problem

On VirtuaNES:
the game freezes at curtains, turning Throttle on will cause it to display many glitched graphics, the longer it runs the more it starts glitching

On Famtasia:
Unknown opcode 17 at FEEC, nothing more happens

On Nintendulator:
game does not run, it complains about unknown opcode 17 at FEEC

On NESten:
Exception while drawing to the canvas

On LazyNES:
Unrecognised Opcode on startup. Game can be started as Luigi (with swapped around A and B) but the animations on map screen are very fast, I cannot move, and A opens the inventory (but switches it back very quickly)

So, those are all that I had and I've tried. None of them work.
Anyone know how to get Bio World running?

I use an old version to play alotta NES, you can snag an older version of FCEU here. Bio World runs smooth with 0.96 on my PC so give it a whirl, hope it helps you.

For me, Bio World works perfectly in all emulators.

Hmm, could either the ROM or the patch be the problem?
The same ROM has worked for several other hacks (Luigi vs. Mario, Mario Adventure, Mario in Some Usual Day) so I don't see why BW wouldn't work. Maybe I will try redownloading the patch. Thanks anyway..
