And just for fun, a friendly anonymous decides to rip the sprites from the game.

>>153
The Pokemon.

Does anyone know a way to rip music off the ROM without using VGMTrans? I'm hating this program right now.
ALSO, HNNGH SO EXCITED I MIGHT BUY A FLASHCART.

This ROM work quite well. So far, no crashes(after being patched). Most of it is still in Japanese though.

Battles on the other hand...

Are fully translated, and run smoothly.

The patch that Honky is using. Uploaded by AmDragonite.

I am overjoyed by this thread.

animation animation redux as requested :P

Okay, so I got a clean SS rom. Then, I used the DSLazy thing to fix the arm7.bin. After that, I put it in the "encrypt" folder of the pokefix, and ran the eNDryptS.exe.

While that ran, I got popup messages saying windows couldn't open files like PatchEngine.da1. I don't know if this is related, because eNDryptS said that the rom was patched successfully.

Then, I did the pokefix with the Bios and whatnot, I got the default DS menu to come up, with the name of the SS cart showing up. I clicked on it, and then the rom image crashed.

What the fuck did I do wrong, /emu/?

This link is to an All-in-one, pre-patched rom of Soul Silver.
It has a shortcut file that directly opens No$gba with SoulSilver.
So far, no crashes and is as translated as my previous posts in this thread.

The encrypter is corrupted. Redownload it.

This is a link to a .nds file for HeartGold.
It is pre-patched like the one in my previous post. Enjoy

Delicious, Lance and Will have this Baroque clothing thing going on. Hnng, GIOVANNI~

I'd really like to know why the Sinnoh Frontier Brains are on here...

>>169
There's a Battle Frontier somewhere in HGSS, and essentially its the same as Platinum's Frontier

>>170

Ha! Just to show off the Pokemon status screen.
I just caught a shiny bellsprout :D

>>172
Lucky bastard.

I wish there was a fully translated patch, but oh well. I suppose it's still way too early, if there's ever going to be a full translation. I'll play my SoulSilver all the same, and shut up about it.
>>172
Lucky sonofa-

>>172
Hey wait, is it's overworld/following sprite also shiny?

>>175
You bet it is!
Shininess is retained even in the overworld for all pokemon

>>176
Awesome.

Okay, I'm hoping one of you guys can help me with this.

Playing a pre-patched SS rom on no$gba (with the required settings) creates all these black lines around everything, savestates don't work (but in-game saving does), and the game freezes up every so often, so I have to quit and restart every now and then just to be safe.

Playing it on Desmume, the graphics are fine (if a little laggy), and savestates work, but in-game saving doesn't (it goes through the motions, but when I try to hit start on the start screen after opening up the rom, it goes to start a new game, which means no post-E4 stuff) and the game pretty much breaks down at the city with the first gym (city doesn't load all the way, game freezes, etc).

Is there a way to fix either of these to run smoothly (desmeme - get through the first gym city and save in-game; no$gba - get rid of the black lines all over everything and random freezing)?

it's not working, all I get is a japanese error message.

>>179
god mother fucking dammit, not enough RAM I think.

>>181
Buy a flashcart.

>>182
I intend on ordering one within the week.

TO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE USING NO$GBA AND HAVING TROUBLE, OR PEOPLE WHO ARE SICK OF OTHER EMULATORS NOT WORKING, OR PEOPLE OVERWHELMED BY THE AMOUNT OF POSTS ON THIS THREAD (Those using flashcarts need not apply):

First, download this:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WIXS0M4X
It contains no&gba, with an ALREADY PATCHED Soul Silver rom. It does not crash or freeze. It is also patched with an early ENGLISH patch. Battles, menus, and items are in English. Everything you need is in here ready to go already.

IMPORTANT: That zip file comes with a save file already. You cannot delete it in-game. You will have to go into your computer and delete the .sav file.

After that, you just open no$gba and select the soul silver rom. All of the no$gba settings are already what they need to be to function properly. Your game will autosave. Very convenient.

NOTE TO MAC USERS:
Download both Darwine and xquartz to run no$gba on your computer, found here:
http://www.kronenberg.org/darwine/
http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki

Hopefully I have been of assistance. This thread was becoming a bit of a scavenger hunt to find the useful information.


Copied from that board with the twerps
Pic related, it's my happy Todadile on that ROM

Are the colors on no$gba is washed out for anyone else? Know how to fix that? The colors are much brighter and vibrant on desmume, but the game won't save in-game (which means no post E4 stuff), so I'd rather play it on no$...

>>188
Hey I downloaded that and when I catch my first pidgey and it shows the pokedex entry, the game wont take any button input. Help please?

>>187
I'm ordering a flash cart but my DS (original model, purchased the release week) just died on me. I have to wait until I can save up for a Lite.

can i transfer the save file on my computer to a flash cart and continue on there?

>>200
yes

So my flash cart shipped from DealExtreme, and I just have to wait for it to get here. Awesome.

>>202
heh, just ordered mine too. i really wish they would translate the story text as well. i often have no idea what's going on

>>153

I came at sight of Red sprite.

Do you think a computer with 2 gigs of RAM could run it? I'm replacing this heap of shit computer.

>>233
2 Gigs of RAM is more than enough. I have a 2Gig and even when emulating, I have never seen it go over 1.5Gig used.

my heart gold emulator dosn't work any suggestions on what to do?

Stole this from a thread on that board with the twerps. Apparently this version has the following translated. To quote~

This seems to be the best one, but the following is incomplete:

"Item Descriptions ~95% Completed
Locations: ~85% Completed
Pal Pad ~90% Completed
Wi-Fi Menus: ~95% Completed

By FAR the most helpful information I've seen on running HG/SS and patching roms in general
