despite the Dawn / Dusk use the same compression format (pak) but it is different version from Lost Evolution & Xros Wars,
regarding Digimon World DS, the files are encrypted, hope one day someone write a tool for that, or perhapse this tool may do: https://github.com/Garhoogin/NitroPaint
regarding Lost Evolution, I played alot with my brothers by using melon ds emulator, it has local multiplayer feature on the same pc,
you can check here: (the old version)
but better get the latest one which is easier (no extra tools) and more stable
I know what you mean at the beginning,
whatever it is local or online connections, it needs NDS SDK which contain wi-fi hardware instructions, beside that you don't have the game source code.
sadly the online feature cannot be done as you expect, it requires reversing the game & understanding how nds wifi works,
which make it extremely difficult.
better to create entire game from the beginning!!!
mostly welcome, I would like to team-up !!
but at the mean time I'm finishing my current tools, after that I will go deeper into Digimon NDS games,
The Translation has been done so our goals will be beyond that like:
- Adding digimons from Dusk / Dawn / Xros Wars or perhaps custom one
-...
I don't know how to thank you Pious, that what I was looking for months, till I said I have to reverse Kaido's tool uncompress routine!!
I found some stuff in memory, now I can make them permanent, I have some ideas like inserting custom digimon, manipulating digivolution trees, etc..
once...
still my question is there,
after updating the files & use the tool, I got larger pak than the original,
the tool just merges the files without compressing, which makes the game acts weird and crashes most of the times
idk how they put shoutmon & updated the text file back to pak files
I have some experience in romhacking, I want to create some mods like randomizer, adding modifying digimons / digivolution and etc...,
I want to manipulate the game data but it is compressed,
there is a tool can decompress the pak files but cannot compress back,
any kind of help is really...
jst
download the patch from the 1st page,
download the tool from here romhacking.net/utilities/598/
then open the tool & apply the patch,
its fairly simple
@Xdqwerty you are not dumb or stupid, you need to stop saying that, you are very smart, even about alot of things I have no clue about. We all love you here, like a big family.
Only thing drive me crazy is all these new horror games nowadays is its so dark, all time. I can't even play them. I understand they trying to create spooky but be creative a little, not just darkness with pop out scare scenes.
