Yes Lt. Surge is also not working properly for me as well.

On the pokedex completion percentage, if I read everything correctly, the names are 100% translated. The game already has the English descriptions in game, you just need to trade over an English pokemon to read the English text. I suppose it may be possible to swap the English and Japanese text, so that if you get a pokemon from an English game you will have the option of reading the Japanese, but I don't mind the way it is now.

I have no idea what version of the patch I'm using since it wasn't put in the files (hint hint) but has anyone else noticed that HMs are acting like TMs? My Surf and Fly disappeared after one use. D:

Other than that, I like this patch because it allows me to keep the original names of the Pokemon.

EDIT: if that was fixed though, someone inform me so I can update my patch. ._.;

SS works pretty good on CycloDS Evolution with latest firmware (1.55) and I use a totally clean ROM.
I'm able to save and stuff but the game still freezes sometimes, lame as hell =/

But I'm gonna insert the language patch now, maybe it will help =P

Thanks for the translation, can somebody help me with the patching, I am a noob and have never done this before.
I have read the readme and how to patch.
It says Drag an UNTRIMMED,
UNPATCHED original HeartGold/SoulSilver ROM onto the apply patch.bat file.
However when I cannot drag my rom onto the patch.bat file, and when I drag it into draguntrimmedromhere it doesnt work, its probally something really something silly and easy im doing wrong
any help?
thanks

Do you plan on translating the text when you try to teach TM/HMs to pokemon? The "able" "unable" or "already known"?

Great patch so far. Can't wait for 4.0

I had the same problem, just go to Ercshit city ( rare name) and enter the kimono girls school, your rival will be there, and youll have to fight all the beautiful girls (ironic).
Now after that, depending on your version SS OR HG, you can catch HO-OH or LUGIA, wich by the way i recommend, since they are outstandingly powerful, and then finnaly surf to kanto.

I still cannot solve the route 35 problem.

I did however use Pokesav before battling the gym. But even then, saving was fine until route 35.

I have a backup save before i hacked it. On this save, i have yet to battle the gym, but saving on route 35 and up works.

Perhaps pokesav is not compatible with it?

I have a question does the new 3.5 patch stop the freezing or do i need to get a separate patch for that and in what order do i patch them if so, freeze then 3.5 or 3.5 then freeze? and im useing an EDGE if that makes any difference.

You don't need one. This patch includes the anti-freeze patch if I'm correct.

Has this patch been tested on "DS X-Treme yet? cuz I can't get it to work with the patch...
It freezes when I'm trying to save. when I used another patch it saved but it would freeze after 3 minutes or something..

Amazing Work !!!

Pls guys try to include this

You are the best Group ever !
One: The title image can't be larger than the original, which is shown below.
titlescreen.png

Two: I prefer the japanese titles over the English ones, honestly.
Though, if you want the hack the subtitle to say "Soul Silver" in some cool font- go for it. Remember to do any editing as .bmp files and don't make it larger than this original if you ideally want it inserted.

Kosheh is already working on an English logo in the style of the Japanese logo.
What about this, I just photoshopped it once more:

HG:

SS:

oh and an example (photoshopped of course):

hope you use this

Those look phenomenal. Can you re-upload those as bitmaps? If we may, can we use those exclusively for our patches as well?

So I heard that your patch makes the game start freezing after beating the 3rd gym. I'm using AK2i + AKAIO. Is this true?

With the release of 4.0 creeping up, I have a few questions for you all:

1) Is there anything that I didn't already include that you'd want me to include? (Please don't request story dialog, as I do not want to compete with Nintendo's translation.)

2) Is there anything I already included that you would want me to change? (For example, the change from 3.0 to 3.5, when I replaced "Report" with "Save)

3) If there was any other title you'd want me to translate, that has no chances of localization, what would it be? (Do not request games that have already been announced for localization, such as the next Professor Layton)

  • 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!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
