Is there any full description of all the differences somewhere?
(Going beyond the original posting by Plasmo at the beginning of this thread and the Icarus video)

Also: is there any video footage that was grabbed directly off the signal and not via cellphone standing in front of the cabinet?

The opening post is exhaustive for the differences. However, the version available at Stunfest had some additional tweaks, most importantly that you will also get an extend when the zan counter rolls reaches 5000 (i.e. 5k enemies killed with Rose Cracker) and not only when it reaches 0 (i.e. 1k enemies killed with Shot).

I guess it would be futile to wait for a "release" of this, would it?

This hack was done by a team called the Four Horsemen. They're apparently working on a new project.

Direct-feed footage can be downloaded here.

More discussion/info at the Cave-STG forum here.

Thank you to Muchi Muchi Spork for actually providing information on this finally.

Well, there it is.

A quote from Spork on the cave-stg forum's PSSC thread mentioned by NTSC-J:
It was made by Four Horsemen (programmers/hackers group) and there's already another Cave game project in the works that is wild as a child on cocaine.

When you have the ROMs you can just get someone to swap the program and graphics chips on a PS board. The ROMs I think should be released soon.

Recently heard about this and it sparked my interest as a long time lurker and owner of a couple sh-3 boards, you say this group who did this and has another project in the works but what's the goal here? are they at any point going to release the roms for ppl to do their own boards?

Nice, I'm looking forward to more CV1000s dying because of fucked up traces and pads.

These games should run on things that aren't PCBs, imo.

Ugh, somehow it doesn't surprise me that OG CV1000 boards have been killed this way...

Maybe we want to open a new thread for this in the near future. Sounds like some interesting projects are in the pipeline.

I tried everything with this one and nothing changes or happens, just a quick flash of the console window and it closes.

Smells like this patch is only for those who have a pcb, what's needed to flash it, and are ready to take the risk.

We peasants will have to wait until this lands on MAME, so not yet but probably in not too long.

Maybe I'm completely misguided here, as I haven't emulated an arcade game in too many years, but if MAME can play other CV1000 games, shouldn't it be pretty easy to trick it into playing anything else designed for those boards?

I know it's possible for each game to carry a different FPGA configuration, but do they actually?

Took me a while to make the patcher work since I'm not familiar with command line.
So after it's done I've renamed the files and put them back into a zip, then carried it to my roms folder.
But it didn't work. MAME gives me a red warning with crc errors.

Yep, that's what I remember from every time a patch for an arcade game has been released in that form.
So I'm going to wait for it to be included in the official mame romset and games list after all. ^^
