Does anyone know if the Lucina, Marth and Minerva DLC are on disk or do their files need to be downloaded. Is there any way to obtain them on the US version through hacking. Thanks!

Those DLC need to be downloaded. There are various way to obtain those characters in US version:

  • Extract the extdata from JP version, then use it on US version
  • Rebuild the DLC for US version, using JP DLC files.

Thanks so much for your help. Would you be able to do a quick tutorial on this?

Dude, this is awesome! Would it be possible for you to walk through exactly how you did this?

Sure thing. Some text is still untranslated though.

How I port Cipher DLC (and other JP DLC) to US version:
  • Create "@E" folder in "m" folder, then move all files in "m" folder to "@E".
  • Because the file structure is changed, you need to edit "fst.bin" file. It's basically a file list, contains some pointers that point to file name. Edit: Now you can generate it with this Python script.
  • Hex edit DLC entries in ContentInfoArchive_USA_en.bin file, and add icon files to "icons" folder (optional).
  • Rebuild the DLC.

With what tools? :P

Not really getting the 3rd step what do I change in content 0 -_- this is harder than it sounds

Rainthunder senpai we beg u for a CIA or easy to follow tut for this !(0-0)!

I will refrain from saying anything that would go against this site's policies. However, I will say that if you look elsewhere, you will be sure to find that RainThunder senpai has noticed us :)

Thank you for answering our fervent prayers! :bow:

To repeat RainThunder's disclaimer, the cia is experimental, and RainThunder will not be responsible if you get a shadowban. I'll actually go ahead and test this at some point this weekend.

The only other thing to note is that the Pegasus Knight class description is "????????" as is the dialogue when you pick her up. As far as I can tell, this is the only "shortcoming" so to speak, at least until I test this online to see if it triggers the shadowban. I personally doubt it, but we shall see.

I saw an Outrealm class online and I was actually wondering how we can actually add an outrealm class character or maybe Ganon!

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too

    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
