I want to try the 'HardType' patch of this but I can't get it to work. Can anyone upload the iso?
Is it even any good? Is Castlemania dead?

you need
1. vanilla SotN NTSC-U iso
2. the HardType .ppf (playstation patch file)

3. ppf-o-matic (a program for using .ppfs)

hope this helps

I had problems getting it to work too. It turns out it's a bit of a sloppy/lazy hack and they didn't do it properly. They only hacked the game data, but didn't touch the error correcting data. So it won't work on Mednafen.
After patching the game normally, you need an additional program. Run ECCregen and it will patch the ECC data. After that it'll work.

Really? It works on my PSOne :)

There are a few different iso's out there. One of them will work, most won't. There's probably an MD5 hash or something to verify which is the right copy.
The copy I used was called, when i downloaded it:
Castlevania.Symphony.Of.The.Night.NTSC.US.cue/bin
