No, unfortunately models and textures aren't possible.

Not asking for an ETA, is it being worked on? I want more mods on the switch since it's portable, playing on PC is great but I can't bring my PC with me to other places.

I might do more research about it when I get the time but you can ask on the souls modding discord. There are lots of pro modders there with much more knowledge than me.

Unfortunately it's not possible to port new textures made for PC to be used on Nintendo Switch because of differences in API for rendering vector graphics and so on... So, there won't be any new texture models ported from PC to Nintendo Switch, unless access to internal tools for making textures used by the studio which ported the game to Switch, Singaporean studio Virtuos, are published. This is very evident with the fact that DS Remastered was ported by the Polish studio QLOC for all platforms except the Nintendo Switch.


@maxx488, looking forward to an updated version of your awesome DS Ascension port! :)

Hi:

First of all thanks for this amazing job, very well done!

I have an issue.

I put all 4 archives from 8.1 in my atmosphere/title/01004AB00A260000/romfs directory and, when I run the game, it works fine but, not character creation menu. I start with original classes and weapons so, it's imposible without new weapons for new classes.

How can I solve this? It's strange that all enemies and difficult works but the character creation menu not.

Thanks for your future help @maxx488

Hmm thats wierd.. Just tested it and everything works fine. I've heard atmosphere's layeredFS folder name changed tho, maybe thats the problem. If not try downloading the hq sound file for the ascended version (The one you have) so you don't have to download 4gb again and replace the file.

Also the mod does not show you the gear in creation menu, just shows you class's and rings's names, thats normal

The fix patch is for the 5.1 ASCENSION.
ASCENDED does not require any patch but you can download the HQ audio optional file if you want.

I keep both versions because past 5.1 the mod was renamed and changed lots of core mechanics. So everyone can choose whichever they want.
I personally think ASCENSION is the hardest.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • 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)

    run h2testw on it

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