ROM Hack Pokemon HG/SS FIXED rom test

[FTommy]

I didnt see anybody trying this before but my friend was looking into the problem and he saw people saying that the Anti Piracy code is usually in files named guru,guru2.narc so we unpacked the roms with DSBuff and we really found that file.We deleted it,packed the files into an NDS file and my friend tried it with his R4 with the freshest r4li firmware, for like 30 mins and nothing,the game runs just like magic for him but i'm still not sure about how it acts on other cards so please if anyone tries out the roms give us feedback here.Don't worry about the size,this is the real thing,i only compressed it with winrar.

Since i cant post roms you can do it easily just google DSBuff

So you unpacked the rom, deleted guru2.narc and repacked it? Wasn't that done before?

What We Think We Know

OMG WHEN WILL THE WORKING PATCH BE OUT?
As soon as the people working on it stop being spammed and can concentrate for long enough to find one.

RARELY CRASHING DOES NOT MEAN WORKING PERFECTLY.
THOSE "RANDOM" CRASHES TYPICALLY FOLLOW THE 24 EVENT PATTERN.

CURRENTLY WORKING:
(These do have occassional freezes.)

Acekards work most of the time.
CycloDS.
Latest version of Desmume can play the game.
No$GBA has a fix which makes the game playable.

CODETHE PROBLEM:

- We do not know specifically how this AP works.
- The Open on No$Zoomer or simply press F12.
6. Open your game again. RESET function won't work, as you will get a rom image crash.
7. Choose your game just like you would do it on a real DS.

*For no$gba to recognize a save, the save must be in the "BATTERY" folder.[/code]

PEOPLE WORKING ON A FIX:

- M3 Team
- R4 Ultra Team
- Supercard Team
- Xenophobia (Maybe)
- Many Forums
- ...and countless others.

3D games don't use sprites

3D games can use sprites, a sprite is simply a 2D image that's not applied as a texture. For example, some of the effects in the original smash brothers (like captain falcon's flames) used sprites, and that's a 3D game. I picked that because it's an easy examle, if you hit somebody with a falcon punch or kick, then pause and move the camera around (when it's zoomed in), you'll notice that the effects are always oriented to the camera. Their orientation isn't fixed because they're not a texture, they're not affixed to a plane, they're just free-floating sprites.

In the fourth-generation games, in-battle, all the pokemon graphics and almost every move effect is made up of one or more sprites.

Furthermore, the word "sprite" can be used to describe any 2D image in a 3D game, if you loosen your interpretation from a more technical one to a more artistic and design-oriented one.

3d games can use both... pokemon use sprites zelda models xD

 

[Rydian]

No it doesn't... 3D games uses models

Says the person who has obviously never made a 3D game.

It's entirely possible for a game to use both at once, like the example I gave for smash brothers.
