DS #3055: Chrono Trigger (USA)

[Haruspex]

Does this work for G6DS Real out of the box?

Because i tried it and it worked perfectly (saving and loading also works)

Although i didn't played much, so i am asking if i encounter problems later on if i do not patch the game.

 

[crescentsaber]

Anyone from Australia here knows when its gonna be released here ?! I'm friggin impatient to just grab my FIRST EVER legit DS game and they keep delaying it...! I might not want to buy it by the time its released ! T.T

 

[iNFiNiTY]

infinity made the patch, thats why it doesnt work!

Yeah i just want to make people not be able to play the game so badly

 

[crescentsaber]

bump! ( can ppl bump topics in Gbatemp ?? )

 

[kingkong]

i know the chrono trigger programmers are reading this thread so i just want to say `hi` to you guys.

So I can buy the game, transfer my flashcart save to the retail cart, and use the retail cart to play.

How do you do that??

For EZ-Flash IV, you use the homebrew ETool v3.13.

In the menu you can choose "Copy SRAM to EEPROM" or "Copy EEPROM to SRAM".

I've used it before to extract save from retail cart, or inject save into it. It works fine.

WOW, this is my first time playing Chrono trigger, and i screwed it!

I called my frog Ben, and my Robot Glenn, and throughout all the story where frog is a human they kept calling him "glenn", so i thought it was saying the robot used to be human, so I got mega confused with the story, only recently i learnt the frogs real name is Glenn. Grrr I was so excited for this game yet now ive ruined the story since I got so confused

Still fails hard on CycloDS -> Epic double white screens.

Make sure you patch an unmodified rom, that could be the problem. Its just hard-patching the codes so no reason it shouldnt work. if it still doesn't, try the codes or another patch from here on the forums. Unless CycloDS can just not do it.. didnt they release a fw patch for this anyway?

For all you curious people, I've just tried (U) ROM with (J) save on Supercard DS One V3.

Save works flawlessly, I can warp with Epoch and everything works fine, but I do get endless blue portal animation when traveling.
(U) ROM doesn't have Japanese language option.

I'll just use (J) ROM, no problems with it.
Props to Supercard team for making a quick fix so we don't need to patch the ROM, and we don't need to use cheats, they'll hopefully fix the (U) version soon!

Well, we actually don't need it so fast as (J) version is actually English, but I like to have settings in my Raffles ROM renamer to ignore (J) versions and have (U) versions of my ROMs (hey, backups only!

)...

Definitely using a clean xpa-ctu.nds file, I can boot xpa-ctu.nds just fine, but of course it will freeze at portal.

Every single patch I apply sends me straight to double white screen on CycloDS.

I'm using their 1.5 FW, but that only fixes the (J) release so far.

 

[GreenBanana]

So... the only apparent difference between the US and JP versions seems to be the included languages, then? Nothing else?

At least... it's apparent the copy protection routine is different between the 2, if the JP is fixed in Acekard 4.12 but the US version won't work.

Actually, the JP one freezes at the same exact point that the US one does, even when you have the cheat codes on.

I can't even comprehend this post.

It makes as little sense as:
QUOTE(GreenBanana @ Nov 26 2008, 10:49 PM) Um... there's nothing to include a patch with, here. So they didn't include a patch.

for those who don't know what to use with ppf files
use ppf-o-matic

 

[Mangofett]

Will I be able to play this version and understand it if I've never played Chrono Trigger?

 

[phatdade69]

I disagree. I used PPFOM and it completely crashed No$ upon trying to load the "patched" version.

Of course.

It's the original with a few new bonuses. I never played the original and now this is one of my favourite RPGs.
