About HG/SS Anti-Piracy Measure

Okay, I have kept track of the time I started playing (resuming SAVE) and found out that WITH THE PATCH the game CRASHES EXACTLY EVERY 45 MINUTES. A method of anti-piracy like this is also used in the SQUARE ENIX game: FFCC: Ring of Fates.
So in retrospect, the EXACT SAME PATCHING METHOD could be implemented in fixing this F*%&ER!

Until the patch is fixed and the game works seamlessly...Save every 10 Minutes, after the 4th Save, re-start your DS and re-boot the game!

I call this method the "Time-Out" method or "Timer" method.

Interesting. If I'm not mistaken, there's an AR code lying around either here or the ROM Hacking forums. Maybe I should check it out...

By the way, I remember seeing a 45 last time I tried to save before freezing.

Hmmm maybe it's only for certain flashcarts because YSMenu and an R4DS are still random freezes (sometimes it will be 5 minutes others 20 minutes).

Here are some cheats, haven't confirmed them but I'm gonna try since I really want EXP multiplier for games I'm playing AGAIN.

Improved Patch Released!

How to play "Pokemon Soul Silver and Heart Gold" on your DSTT and R4


1. Download Patch.rar and get a Patch.exe file from the RAR archive.

2. Drag your ROM and drop it onto the Patch.exe. That's all.

Note:
The file having the ".bak" extension is the backup copy of the original nds file.
You can use Patc.exe to both "Pokemon Soul Silver" and Pokemon "Heart Gold".

For all the large and colorful text, it doesn't necessarily work.

And yes, it goes without saying that this should be tested on an M3i Zero running M3 Sakura.

Keep in mind, so that we're all on the same page here (damn forums are inconvenient): The problem now is the saving issue.

 

[Chris_Skylock]

testing the new patch on Acekard 2i. I placed the .nds file to my flashcart, was that it? or the .bak? lol. I did placed the .nds pokemon heartgold file and im testing it later as I just switched off my DSi for a moment

Playing on an Acekard RPG with Rudolph's patch. So far no freezes.
But that does not say much, I used it just for the last hour.

Hey, just for future ref, but you can convert no$gba save files to a format readable by your M3 by changing the sav/sna file format to raw (not rawr) or something, right? Meh, not that important I guess.

Got a black screen walking into a Pokemon center with Rudolph's patch.

If it's not an M3 it might as well be Max Media Dock.

Yeah, works for me too (Acekard RPG). Three hours playtime with rudolph's patch until now, not one crash. :3

 

[Chris_Skylock]

3 hours straight on Acekard with Rudilph's patch? Might try to go 3 hours straight tomorrow.
