Gambia, The
Simple hex edit: Starting from 0xA7890, replace 6A6170616E657365 ("japanese") with 656E676C69736800 ("english\0"). This makes the game look in a different folder, instead of swapping around folder contents.

Or, get xdelta (xdelta.exe) (if you don't already have it - comes packaged with most ds patches anyways) and the delta file (6rz-pdj-en.delta), then apply the patch using this command: "xdelta patch 6rz-pdj-en.delta 6rz-pdj.nds 6rz-pdj-en.nds".

Quick tutorial:
1. Download dslazy
http://blog.dev-scene.com/ratx/archives/1

2. Open your populous rom and select 'NDS unpack', wait till it's done.

3. Go to the folder data/text/ and open the English folder, mark everything and select copy.

4. Now go back one folder and open the Japanese folder, select paste and select yes to overwrite everything.

Save the text file and go back to dslazy.

5. Select 'NDS Packer'
When it's done, select where to save it and there you goÂ

EDIT: Didn't notice I used the text file way on the rom I already copied the language folders onÂ

Will work now.

Thanks Killermech, this worked perfectly for me.

The ROM is 64 Meg in original Japanese form, but only 41.5 Meg once I mess with it in DSlasy and change the language...
Any idea why this happens?
