ROM Hack Ace Attorney Investigation (2): Prosecutor's Path FINAL [RELEASE]

[diav]

Thank you so much for your hard work over the years!

 

[guedesbrawl]

uh, i don't get this, i downloaded both BEAT and XDELTA and... uh, i don't see how to progress here.

The beat patch apparently couldn't be extracted, but there is folder here anyways. it has a readme file and the game's cover.

the Xdelta has the same things plus a PDf file named "AAI2 Whole thing CMYK"


what do i do?

You read readme or first post in this thread and find this:

3) How to patch it??
First of all you need the ROM of the game (don't ask us where to get it, Google is your friend).
Remember to keep a copy of the clean ROM for future patches (we have yet to decide if we will make a progressive patch or you will always need to use a clean ROM.
For this patch we offer you 2 patch formats:
BEAT: http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/893/
Xdelta: http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/598/

For BEAT, choose the BEAT download link, decompress the patch, run BEAT, press "Apply patch", choose your .nds file and your .bps file, then "Patch" when you finish, play it on emu or transfer to your micro SD card.

For Xdelta, choose the Xdelta download link, decompress the patch, run Xdelta UI, select your ROM, select the patch, then "Patch" when you finish, play it on emu or transfer to your micro SD card.

For mac users:
MultiPatch is your friend to patch the ROM.

i was a little lost ther,e i though those were the patches.

anyways, i went with the BEAT option, and as far as getting the program to work, i'm doing well.

But the patch itself is a rar file, and WINRAR is having problems doing the work, saying the file is damaged or the format is different


i tried Xdelta, smae deal; i can install the program but the patch is in a unworkable state AFAIK

Already starting on the Youtube Playthrough. I know I'm not the only one, but still.

Sorry for DP.

 

[guedesbrawl]

Can someone help me please! i can't extract the patch files!

Qinrar says the file is damaged or the extension isn't supported... please HELP!

 

[BlackAngel5]

Thank you so much Auryn (and the rest of the team, of course) for putting so much time into this translation!! I was one of the ones who wanted to wait till the whole game was patched and since I remember the Case 1-3 patch being released only a few months ago, I was surprised to see this released so soon! . Playing it on my R4i 3DS and so far no issues whatsoever, I'll edit if this changes.

So glad that all of the Ace Attorney fans will be able to play the whole series (until Capcom lets us down again with some future unreleased AA game...let's hope that doesn't happen...).
Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT! Congrats on completing the project!

EDIT: The voices of John Doe and Knightly also don't show on my flashcart (again, R4i 3DS)

Hey, just as a followup, I tried re-patching with xdelta, and the save issue's fixed

Thanks again!

Hey can you detail exactly how you were able to fix the save problem? I have the same problem, but even though I use the xdelta patch, the problem still persists.

The "problem" I'm talking about (for anyone else that may know how to fix this problem) is where you hit the start button to save the game, but the only thing that pops up is a black screen at the top and silhoute of the characters at the bottom screen. This looks like a problem for only Drastic on the android. I'm running it on a Samsung Note 3 if it helps.

EDIT: I found the solution. It doesn't have anything to do with the xdelta or beats versions. I just had an old version of the drastic emulator, after I updated it fixed the problem.

Can someone help me? I had a save file (on desmume 0.9.8) where I had completed all 3 cases on the previous patch.
I downloaded this patch, applied it to a clean rom file, and tried to play it. I then loaded my save, when I clicked on something or pressed any buttons it crashed. If the game was in the middle of an automated sequence or something it crashes, if i perform a soft reset it behaves as if I haven't even started case 1 when I have finished the first three.

I did everything as instructed and loading the save from the previous patch results in either a crash or a loss in all progress. I am using desmume 0.9.8, although I have tried 0.9.9 and had the exact same results. I would try no$gba, but every attempt I have made to convert my save has ended in failure.
I would like to resolve this very much as I have been waiting for this for a while. An alternative to this would be if someone gave me an action replay code to use which unlocked all of the cases (this way I wouldn't need my save that doesn't work)

By the way, you guys have done an awesome job with this!

I thought I had an account here on GBATemp before, but oh well. Just made a new one to comment here.

Playing it on my R4i 3DS and so far no issues whatsoever, I'll edit if this changes.

Ah good, someone else with an R4i. Have you encountered these two minor quirks?

1) When a character is in the middle of dialog, and a new BGM is starts up, things pause for a quick second it feels like. The sound effects don't stutter, it's just the character's animation/dialog pauses a bit. I can't remember if this existed in previous games. I'll test it out on a different flash card later, maybe it's just the R4i not loading fast enough?
2) Occasionally I'm given the option to fast forward through text, which traditionally isn't possible unless you've seen that dialog before, or you're replaying that part of the game. Otherwise it's locked out entirely. It's noticeable if I tap with the stylus cause it can fast forward it easily.

And I should've taken a note of when it specifically happened, but there was a minor glitch during Case 2.

Spoiler

I'm somewhat sure this was during the encounter with Elbird in the Special Cell. In one of the times when somebody asks you to present evidence (during usual chatter, not in a cross-examintion), once I presented the evidence, the following dialog didn't "scroll" properly, that text box was already completed.

I just finished Case 2 so I'll look again to see if I can pinpoint it.

But anyways, those are just minor quirks, and I gotta agree: So far so good! I'm really impressed with the quality so far for everything. Even recording voices for new characters. If I didn't know better I'd assuming some of the Capcom localization team secretly helped you guys out! The chosen puns for names are top notch!

 

[Korn]

Thank you very much! A slight problem, it currently doesn't work on my M3 (white screen), but I will just use an emulator. Used the infolib.dat in the first post, but maybe my firmware is too old.

 

[KingVamp]

Good Job. Wonder if Capcom will try to snatch this up.

 

[porkiewpyne]

Just got about to getting it today. I would sincerely like to thank you and the team for the hard work all these years. I still remember the first time I saw this on CR. Heck, I remember when the game got released and I was involved in pretty much every petition and what not to get this localised. Can't believe the wait's over.

Thanks to everyone who has put their time in making this translation, I'm very gratefull for this. I've been looking forward to it since the anouncement of getting the first cases released in December (no idea which year it was lol) but you didn't make it in time, so since then i've been visiting these sites every now and then. Always very happy if there was any new information about the progress.
Patience is a gift not many people have as you can see in some comments. I know 1 bad comment gets stuck more on you than 10 good ones, but you really shouldn't bother with these people, as you shouldn't bother with this comment. If you reached this spot I'll have to say thank you again (whoa 2 thank you's in one comment ) for not passing by it.

tl;dr
Thanks to all the team that worked on it, don't bother with disrespectfull people.

PS: Currently playing on a R4 and working just fine, no issues.

I know it's been just over 10 hours since my last post but I NEED to play this.
These are the LAST two cases I need to do in the entire series!
Can someone please help me?

Hmmm, for the 1st one I haven't noticed anything, but I HAVE noticed number 2. Like you said, it only happens occasionally when I tap the screen it does fast forward, which surprised me as well. Doesn't really bother me though so meh

I haven't gotten to Case 2 yet so I can't speak for that one :3 Sorry.
Also, do your voice commands work by any chance? Cuz mind don't (Auryn had that as a noted issue)

Quick question, what is this code supposed to do?

Quick question, what is this code supposed to do?

It fixes the AP that turns all text in the game into gibberish.
