ROM Hack Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver translation

if everyone agrees, i can make a super N00B Tutorial on How To Patch Pokemon HG/SS.
I mean, im getting tired of reading the same problems again and again, and i dont think that the problem is " oh the site loads so slow". You're just a bunch of lazy people.

you kidding me? i often have to refresh 5+times to load one page..... though right now its very fast

as for anyone having trouble. try making one folder, put the patch in there.the rom in there. should work fine.

I have tried to patch the rom without changed it's name first to xpa-phg or xpa-pss
it works fine to me
the most important thing is you must put all necessary files and the rom in one folder [ make a new folder ]
if you have done so, I think there won't be any problem while patching the rom

...Maybe it's not loading so fast because you're refreshing it so much, dumb dumb.

And yes, just putting the ROM in the same folder as the patch and whatever patching tool you're using should work. If that doesn't work, then you're computer just can't do it.

hey there,
Is the patch going to translate the whole game or is it only going to translate a few certain things from the game?
I looked at the main post and it doesn't say whether character texts is going to be translated or not.

Wow now i wont have to wait to 2010

Wil this be a full translation ¿?

Raqib12 · Sep 14, 2009

Quick update: It seems Ace Trainers and Gym Leaders can't have names over 5 characters... I've yet to confirm this, but that's what it seems like.

Erh, no.

(Reading is such a good habit. I wish it was more spreaded.)

I've done this as well. No luck. I even put it on the root of a flash drive that was pretty much empty beforehand. No luck there either.

Guess I have to face facts. I can't use this patch for some unknown reason.
I'm thinking it's either a bug with xdelta (there is one bug currently unsolved dealing with "too many filenames") or the batch file is not properly written (no offense).

you're not using a clean, fresh extracted rom...

Freshly extracted: same problem.
And it's verified clean using NDSHeader

EDIT: Placed necessary files on Desktop. Same problem.

try throwing in everything to C:/ root (Patch+rom) if it doesn't work, then ur computer is broken =\

catasthrope · Sep 14, 2009

yes, if you still can't patch it,then maybe your computer has been messed up with viruses .

and yes, japanese version games can't have more than 5 character.

Then keep it Japanese, I'd hate it to see weird short versions of the names =/

I am currently having a problem where I can't save with this patch. When I save it says "saving a lot of data" like if I just used the pokebox and it stays like that for a long time... Not so sure what the problem is. Tried deleting the old save file and play the game through but same problem still persist.

xvolution · Sep 14, 2009

Still wouldn't patch on the C: root. Running a virus scan right now, though I doubt I have a virus.

EDIT: I was able to get the game patched using Kazo's patch, so it's definitely some problem with xdelta (since Kazo's patch uses NDSTool instead of xdelta).

Chotaz · Sep 14, 2009

if you're on vista/seven, change the batch and xdelta priorities so they run under adminsitrator previleges, then try again patching on C: root =)

KaelKazaki · Sep 14, 2009

Patch works great on Supercard Lite. Thanks for the great work, and the patch inclusions helping my game play perfectly now. (Wifi works! Yay!)

Envi · Sep 14, 2009

i patched an the patched work fine, but it is still crashing out i have renamed Soul Silver to xpa-pss.nds

any thoughts on this?

mattmagician · Sep 14, 2009

Make sure your rom is fresh, with no previous patches applied to it.

Hello, I just wanted to point out that All of Nurse Joy may not be translated. When My first pokemon was fainted and I went to the pokecenter, after healing, it said something about My first pokemon in japanese before it finished handing them back to me. I don't know if it is something Nurse Joy says, or whether or not it is just telling me my first pokemon is going to be the one following me instead of the one next in line. Just wanted to let you know, in case it is her.
