Hello!
I have been working on a Mario Kart 7 hack for awhile now (With the help of Luigi Bro) and it has been repacked into a .CIA, Now all that is needed is a tester to test the ROM Hack.

EDIT: Nevermind, I already found someone who will test it.

Pink Gold Peach, I know it's your first day here and all, but you're not allowed to share warez on GBAtemp out in the open nor via private means, nor are you allowed to offer to PM someone the files. Please read the GBAtemp.net Terms and Rules.

We actively encourage sharing ROM hacks and such here as it fosters a fantastic community effort and great communication and discussion, but if you are going to share a ROM hack it needs to be distributed in a way that contains no copyrighted code, assets, etc. For many game formats in the past modders have distributed their patches in the form of an Xdelta patch; I'm not sure if that method will work for a 3DS ROM, but regardless of if it does or doesn't work, the ROM itself is forbidden to be shared here.

You are the most gracious of moderators.

Pink Gold Peach, might I suggest creating an xdelta patch?

Patches aren't efficient for encrypted roms, you could make a patch that would require the user to decrypt & re-encrypt the game themselves but that's not a friendly process - which is why modified roms often end up on a 3DS ISO site instead.

If you want to show off your real MK7 hack, go to DSHack.org, we've figured out much more than just music hacking like save hacking or physics hacking. Recently thanks to Hex Editor we've made it possible to texture hack as well.
Also Luigi Bro was banned from DSHack not without a reason. I think people over the site will teach you much more than he did.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ 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 @ 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 @ 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 @ 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 @ 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 @ 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 @ 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 @ 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
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ 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 @ 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
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
