    GBAtemp Exclusive Smash Bros. Ultimate - online tournament - watch on Twitch

    My roommate and I said the same thing hahaha. Unfortunately I had to take care of some stuff last night at the last minute. Here's hoping we get matched up at some point during the next bracket! :D

    ROM Hack GBA Romhacking Help

    At least I'm on the right track in some way. Ran into a snag though: If I mov r15,r0 for example, the PC automatically changes to the new address without saving a return address. I can't seem to use any function other than bl r15 in the assembler (bl r0, for example, generates a parameter...

    ROM Hack GBA Romhacking Help

    Yep, you were right about that. Playing around with Crystaltile2, I was able to get a good look at the font. I have one main question now, though. If I wanted to add asm code at the end of the rom, in blank/expanded space, what would be the best way to branch to it? My idea was to copy the...

    ROM Hack GBA Romhacking Help

    Already having significant progress over what I would have found last night. I had read that the BIOS had its own function calls, but it never clued into me to actually trace them and see what they do. Managed to find the location of the compressed text almost instantly, and was able to...

Namely: -Finding the decompression routine for text/graphics -Finding the location of graphics such as fonts I've been using NO$GBA's built in debugger to...

    Help clearing up Famicom image

    I recently bought an original Famicom off eBay, but of course, the picture looks like trash for the most part, unless I fiddle with the RF cable enough. Basically, what I found was that getting a RCA female to Coaxial (F-type) male adapter, and an RCA cable would yield a significantly better...

    Homebrew conivert gameshark/other cheat decice codes to orcana codes (n64)

    It's possible, but you'd need a ram-dump from your version of the game. Back from my old days in the WiiRD community, you'd have to get this using a USB Gecko on your Wii. Nowadays, I'm sure you could accomplish the same thing using Dolphin. (Don't ask me how, I've never used it for hacking)...

    Hacking [How-to] Spoof firmware (to access eShop and more) on New 3DS and Old 3DS

    I dunno if I'm missing something or not, but I'm trying to activate System Transfer from System Settings in NTR, but the debugger disconnects upon entering System Settings, meaning that the Transfer app sees that an update is available and won't start. I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing...

    Hardware Smash Bros for 3DS issue

    I've run into a strange issue with my room mate's 3DS and Smash Bros. He's had the game since launch, and the 3DS for a few years, and never had ANY problems with the system. Now, his system has great difficulty reading the cart at all. It shows up momentarily, but disappears, or sometimes...

    Hardware Low Firmware 3DS System Value?

    I've come into contact with some Low Firmware 3DS systems, and XLs in the past couple days, and I've been wondering what the general consensus is on the value of them. I obviously only need one, and think it would be a good idea to see what the general going price is.

    Customs bill on Imported games

    Coming back to this almost two months later, I figured I should update my situation. After all this mess occurred, I sent in a form found on the government website, and included the Paypal and eBay invoices for my items, along with my request of refund of taxes on the overestimate and they...

    Customs bill on Imported games

    Alright then. One final question: should my value include shipping costs or not, because Paypal will only show the total with shipping.

    Customs bill on Imported games

    But I don't have a bank transaction record, as it went through Paypal. Sure, my bank account is tied to Paypal, but I imagine pulling up my transaction history would simply describe the transaction as 'money exported to Paypal' or something similar. Would this be enough, or does it need to be...

    Gaming is this a good deal for a 3ds?

    I would buy it. It's still $60 off gambling on a lower firmware at a retailer. Unless you'd rather have an XL, there's no reason to not do it.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
