DS #3055: Chrono Trigger (USA)

[blu9987]

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

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

i was saying what program to use with ppf files (for those not google inclined), not my fault the ppf file with the rom is bodgy.

What happens if you load a J save with the language option set to Japanese?

Just wanted to confirm, patch (the one with the .bat and .exe files) + clean Chrono Trigger ROM works fine on my N-Card clone. Haven't seen any stop signs yet. Currently just went back in time and Lucca is filling me in on what's happening. : )

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

Edit - Next year

... N..N..NEXT YEAR ?! I mean, EARLY next year as in 2nd of Jan or something ? Links to articles about this would be helpful ?

HELLO EVERYONE! I didn't read the thread...could someone just tell me if this will work on the R4?

 

[Banger]

Isn't this supposta to be 3055?

The site where I got it from and GBAtemp say it's 3054 so 3054 it is then.

Looks like someone agreed with me.

Been playing for the past 4 hours fun times!

They weren't specific about exactly when in 2009, just "early 2009". Apparently there was a press release on Wednesday. Check out the post on the Wired blog here. Sorry you have to wait so long! Is importing the US release not an option for you?

urg, for those of you pulling your hair out over the patch, just use the cheat in the cheat DB with that Japanese ROM, its practically identical apart from including Japanese as well as English. either that or buy a card that has released an updated firmware.

If the is absolutely no difference as I suspect I don't see any point what so ever to switch. the was just not enough time between the jap release and the usa release for them to add more features or different translations.

edit: it seems that narin has updated the cheat DB to support the usa release too.... so you can use the cheat with the usa rom too now

edit again: the cheat db can be downloaded from cheats.gbatemp.net before anyone asks....

Is there some point where the game will stop working? Because so far it's been playing good on my CycloDS without any cheats or patches.

When you enter the Portal in the Millenial Fair it should go on an infinite loop and never end.
Another check happens when you play the Organ in the Monastery (the door won't appear).

Tried it on my AK 2.1 with the latest firmware and didn't experience the infinite loop when entering the Portal at the Millenial Fair.
Haven't tried the organ in the Monastery yet.

I just want to (sadly) confirm that there is no possible solution for me on the M3 Real yet. I tried the ppf, adding (Narins updated) cheats manually, DSATM, clean rom, sakura, original firmware, defragging the sd card, formatting it with FAT16 and 32, savegames from other cards, arm7 patch, dancing on the grave of jim morrison, sacrificing young virgins (ok, i lied about the last one, but its on the list) to NO avail. It alternates between hanging at the portal or not starting at all.

IT HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BY ANOTHER SOURCE THAT PARTS OF THE ORIGINAL GAME ARE MISSING WHEN YOU´RE NOT PLAYING THE ORIGINAL CATRIDGE!!!!

 

[Narin]

The massive cheat database has been updated with the piracy fixes for Chrono Trigger DS (U), Professor Layton and the Last Time Travel (J) and Cid to Chocobo no Fushigi na Dungeon Toki Wasure no Meikyuu Plus (J) as well as many other codes. http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=849...p;#entry1586743

I use Sakura 1.12+1 with a clean, unpatched ROM, and Narin's cheat file. I didn't add the copy protection cheat manually, I just downloaded the latest cheat file after Narin had already added it himself.

Working perfectly for me. I've already finished the game and gotten 4 different endings.

Whoops, I forgot to mention that I'm talking about the Japanese ROM. I don't see what the big deal is about having to have the US version if the Japanese one already has English in it.

His gigantic buddy King Kong, of course. Not to be confused with the broadcast call signs KING and KONG.

Yeah I guess I will have to import a copy from PlayAsia or something... even then I will only get it a day before Xmas ( thats what the estimate says ) and if there are delays that means I will get it early 2009 ( which will means I have imported a game for nothing ) - I'm in a dilemma and on top of that I just got a $150 speeding ticket !!! T.T

A copy of Chrono Trigger will make my life so so so much brighter =) and BTW what the hell with the last 4 posts above me.. all removed by mod ? LOL xD
