DS #DSi 0182: Fossil Fighters: Champions (USA)

[jimmyemunoz]

There is no AP patch in the DS-Scene Rom Tool anyway. The game has been added in an update to the program but the program doesn't have or apply any AP patch. I don't know why Retro told you to do this? Just speculating, but maybe he forgot to add the patch to DS-Scene Rom Tool. I don't know.

It was the same with Professor Layton and the Last Spectre. What I did was a batch process with the ROM in its own folder, and it seemed to apply a patch. Try that, while I try to find a clean ROM. (I was trying to use the XXXX release, which must have something modified.)

EDIT: Just got it patched. White screens on EZFlash-Vi with the latest FW and Kernal. Guess I'll just have to wait. :-/

MarcusRaven,
Just to let you know that an AP patch has nothing to do with the loading data that is required for your cart to load the game properly.

Also, for those of you that seem to be having trouble with the DS-Scene Rom Tool, delete all files from data\databases then run the Rom Tool and update the AP Database by clicking on 'Databases, AP Database, Check for Updates' with the app. It doesn't matter if you are using the XXXX or proper release as they are identical.

Alternatively, here is the hex fix :

That totally fixed the problem Retro! I erased the databases and the AP patch was applied to Fossil Fighters: Champions successfully. Thanks Retro

Probably already been asked but, what DSi features are in this game?

I think there's none.

Then why does it have a DSi number? Is it a DSi enhanced game or something?

Sorry but I'm not quite understanding how to get this to work. How does this application "patch" the file. I opened the file and got the update but do I have to do anything else? I can't find a place to put in a hex code either.
Edit: Well I did some patch which fixed freezing at heliport but my hero's level(exp) still isn't moving. As in my dinosaurs can rank up but my character still can't.
2nd Edit: NEVER MIND disregard what I've said before, just got out of the fight with that Rupert's robot and leveled up(character). I just don't see the exp bar move from battle to battle -_-.

Probably already been asked but, what DSi features are in this game?

Region Locking

As far as I know, that is the ONLY feature in DSi enhanced games

 

[phoenixclaws]

I have never ever had a crashing problem with this game on my DSTWO. I keep hearing about it but i have yet to run into it. *shrugs*
As for the game, the gameplay is not as bad or repetitive as the first. Also the graphics have seriously been improved compared to the first.
There is some obvious repetition (digging/cleaning) but there are more areas to go to in this version.

You can freeze the game easily by using the Save State feature though.
If you load a save state when you are not cleaning that was saved during a cleaning session it will freeze the dstwo eos up. If you load it during a cleaning session though it will not freeze up.

Just use the clean dump and enabled the special mode.

 

[tlyee61]

Thx for the help guys! I finally got to applying the AP Patch after deleting and downloading the files again.

 

[InuYasha]

Been dying to try this game,hope it improved on the first game...

 

[SS4]

I wanted to try it but can't find it anywhere. At least none of the place i trust and always go to. Now if anyone knows of a good place to grab this, I wouldn't mind a PM with a link or something

 

[InuYasha]

AP patch didn't work on the cyclo (for me anyway,white screens) but seems to be fine on the new wood firmware...

 

[HunterJ]

None of the fixes work on AK2i as there are still the glitches for helicopter, sonar - dont find rocks upgrade, cutscene (use desmume to avoid). Shame.
