Hey all. I just stumbled upon this site, http://www.phuongmods.com/, and was wondering; has anybody heard of it?? I've tried googling it and have come up with next to nothing. I just wanted to know if this guy is reputable or not. Thanks!
Never heard of it (and neither have search engines save some classified ads), the site being dosed with flash and a 5 second loop of lift music it does not inspire.
Not to mention the services provided (backups provided you sign to say you own it: pleads entrapment sort of thing).
In short avoid, $45 Canadian is not bad for installation but you can do better.

On top of it all, that logo looks a bit dodgy, and the flash site seems to be a template with the logo slapped on.
Would stay well away.

This guy just popped out of nowhere and is claiming to be very experienced - he is also advertising in many BST forums and classifieds - he has no prior feedback or established customer base. I would be cautious.

if you dont trust my service, I cannot do anything about that
and regarding
if someone came on the board with a newly joined account and 1st post was
"phuongmods.com is a scam site he took me wii"
would you believe that to be valid?
we all know what you would think, there are 2 sides of the coin, make sure you see both sides before deciding.
point is, I rather good replies to my service and gain more customers then take one persons wii and lose out on profit that is infinite, where as to a wii that is worth 320$, i make that much in a day, if not more.

TwoSpikedHands:
yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -
