It's possible. There is a guide on the forums on how to inject your own ROMs into VC releases, look around for it, the same method can be used to replace any files in RomFS and repacking the ROM.

that method doesnt work for the likes of pokemon though, how i did it was re-xoring the rom to keep it as close to the original as possible, but its much more complicated and in my case (although im sure some people have better methods) more restrictive i.e keeping file sizes the same etc so as to not have to adjust the rom layout etc

but unfortunatly there is no public tools for doing so, and the ones i used where given to me by someone else so i cant share them........but if your truely interested in learning look into how the rom is made and see how you can inject files and re-xor instead of using the makerom method which doesnt work on too many games

PS its not really all that difficult to understand just readup on 3dbrew about stuff like IVFC hashes and the rom layout and hash regions etc.......if you have any sort of programming knowledge it would help speed up the process

I was wondering if it will be possible to create a patch from the modify BLANK.bin and patch to the same rom since repacking all the file with Re-xor is taking forever on some computer and makerom is still not strong as of this moment.

I will try this out later after work

thaosnake If you're able to get something working after repacking it, let me know. I'm having quite a bit of trouble making heads or tails of this stuff. Most of the explanations given on the topic are incredibly minuscule portions of what actually needs to be done.

what else do i need to be able to make the rom....since i dont have the banner or icon( dont know where to get them)
plus do i have to convert the file to a romfs to be able to use make rom...
