    Hacking ROM Hack LZ77 and Huffman Compression tools

    In case anyone ever finds this thread, I found a solution - The differences in compression don't actually matter. The game will run the code just fine. There's also no reason for it to be at a 1 to 1 ratio, as you can just put the data in a different location in free space and force the code to...

    Hacking ROM Hack LZ77 and Huffman Compression tools

    Does anyone happen to know of any tools that can compress data in a 1-1 ratio with the GBA? So far I have been using these tools by CUE (which are AMAZING) - but if I decompress data then recompress it (without modifying it) the data somehow is not exactly the same Here's a bit of context...

    Hacking No$GBA assembling instructions?

    Thank you SO MUCH for this guide.... The last time I attempted to mod this game was in 2017, and today was the very first time I have been able to get anything really concrete done. I just figured out how to load any text box into RAM into any NPC. I'm not quite to the point where I can change...

    ROM Hack Hacking GBA games that no one else does

    Hi all, I'm pretty new to this site so bear with me. I've been searching on and off for a few months now for hacks for the GBA version of Tales of Phantasia. Unfortunately, no one seems to hack it except for one translation patch that I found (even though the game is already translated???). The...
