ROM Hack [HELP] SNES VC Decrypting doesn't work

[ElyosOfTheAbyss]

Even though No other games use the Title Screens as their icons except nintendo on VC because they are lazy lol.

That's why I like to have them as a title screen icon. To blend in with the others and because I just prefer it

If someone could graciously put the Chrono ReTranslation romhack inside the newly-RE'd HiROM VC's, and/or tell me how to decrypt these CryptoFixed CIAs (PackHack doesn't work) so I can do it myself, I would be a very very happy Temper

Thanks! I really appreciate it.

Also, maybe you can help me. I want to tinker with some of these for a bit, but I was never able to decrypt them. What's the quickest way to get from a cryptofixed .cia to an unpacked romFS? Or, at least, how do you do it?

Edit: Actually, hold on, I might have it. Decrypt9 was doing something weird with the Chrono Trigger .cia you made, but then I redownloaded it and now both PackHack and Decrypt9 can extract it fine.

Well then. Next part will be trying to figure out how the heck to inject a larger HiRom without borking up a checksum or something, and then packing it all up. Should be fun.

WOW we can inject hiroms now but how?

got it
Just used Chrono Trigger as base to understand how it works.

I tried to inject terranigma with this method but the game not have sound and crashes randomly. Anyone have this problem?

 

[ubergeek77]

So I tried injecting Chrono Retranslation. It didn't work :/ (as in, the .cia I made installs and launches, but I only get a black screen with restore points and all that)

The patched ROM itself is ~50% larger than the original, but since HiRoms apparently have the Rom's size 00'd out in the data.bin header, I figured I'd try anyway. Who knows, either I did something wrong, there's some kind of 4MB rom limit, or something else is going on. Although I left the "rom type" byte @0x54 alone, I don't think that makes a difference since Earthbound by itself is larger than Chrono Trigger, and they both still load with that byte set to 01 which is supposedly 512KB. Not sure I fully understand what that byte does.

Oh well. Best left to the professionals I guess. At least I have Chrono Trigger working so well on my 3DS, so I guess I shouldn't be picky

thx guys for working so hard on these
*patiently refreshing that iso site, waiting for new injects to pop up*

 

[Nashoke]

the iso site have nothing, thnx guys for your awesome job, patiently waiting mario rpg

Don't bother waiting for Mario RPG. It uses an SA-1 expansion chip, and the VC emulator currently does not support it.

You will not get a VC version of Mario RPG until Nintendo either release it themselves or they release another SA-1 compatible game (such as Kirby Super Star) that can be injected into.

Same goes for Super FX. Absolutely forget about SFX compatible games ever happening - there is a reason why Nintendo have never released Star Fox on any VC and why they've never rereleased the SNES version of Yoshis Island - there are patent issues with the SFX chip between Nintendo and the remnants of Argonaut software who designed it.

So that's that.

well, Cellenseres got "Donkey Kong Country 3" (HiROM Game) to work. woop

Sorry to burst your bubble, but DKC3 has been up on that ISO site for about the last half a day or so.

Also, what the fuck, is that guy seriously adding his own name to the game? No one wants that shit on their home screen. I'll stick to the other, more professional release thanks.

Finally, my first SNES injection that is working.

Ok, im trying to inject kirby's dreamland 3 to share with the world. I understand to set the bottom number to 08 because the rom size is 4mb, but i dont understand how to translate everything tinto the top 2. Also not sure exactly where to put the rom in the data.bin. Im not the best with hex editing; all i've really done before was early badge creation and nes rom hacks. Im going off the picture of the color-cordinated hexes in this thread btw.

Oh dear.

Kirbys Dreamland 3 is a game that uses the SA-1 expansion chip. It won't work with the current VC emulator - you are wasting your time. Give up.

i mostly just wanted to test with some of my favorite snes games. I have backups, it's mostly just to see how to do it for future reference. I was thinking of trying megaman x and sieken densetsu III.
