I would like to convert my soul silver randomized rom into a cia file, but sadly I can't find any good methods to convert ds roms to cia files :(

So, anyone here knows if it's possible to convert a pokémon soul silver randomized rom to a CIA file, so I can play it on my 3ds?

You can use a forwarder with DSi menu++ and create a shortcut CIA I play DS games this way.

I tried that but the program says that there is not a patch for that rom ;-;

Mind if i link you the rom privately?

Just use TWiLight Menu++. there is no need to convert it to a .cia
Tried that too, and sadly it doesn't work

That's against forum rules.

The romhack works with TWiLight Menu++ v6.7.1 if you follow the instructions Set-up (CFW 3DS/2DS users). I used the Universal Pokemon Game Randomizer with 4788 Pokemon - SoulSilver Version (US).nds (128 MB - EBB387E7) selecting everything randomized.

Alright, time to give you a detailed explanation. Remember the AP + Randomized patch is hypothetical, and I'm not sure if it'll work.

1. Randomize your game, then apply the AP patch. If that doesn't work, AP Patch first, then randomize. [This is the hypothetical step that I do not guarantee will work. Use RetroGameFan's DS-Scene Rom Tool to apply the AP Patch. If the patch is not included, look through here. If you'd like to use cheat codes, add this to the layers upon layers of patches you'll be adding.]

2. Then, extract the files required to make forwarders run from this thread to get nds forwarders working, and download Forwarder3-DS.

3. Insert the SD card into your PC, and open Forwarder3-DS. Select the target card you're using, in this case it'll be from the 3DS SD card, as you're looking to "install" the rom as a cia. Then, enable "Automatically set ROM path"

4. Browse your SD card for the ROM file using Forwarder3-DS, and select them.

5. Click the Floppy Disk button to save, and transfer the .cia file generated to your SD card.

6. Install the CIA forwarder

7. Play SoulSilver.

Have you been able to randomize Soul Silver and use Twilightmenu? I can't randomize and patch, I am running into issues, any advice?

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
