ROM Hack Metal Slug 7

[GeekyGuy]

Actually, you don't need to make a batch file at all.[*]Extract all the files to a folder on the root of drive C:, for example C:\patch.[*]Open a command prompt (open Run from the Start Menu and type "cmd" and press enter).[*]Type "cd C:\patch" or whatever folder you dumped the files into.[*]Type the above command "bspatch xpa-ms7.nds patched.nds sq-ms7p.bdf" and press enter.It's a little more work than making a batch file in Notepad but it's a more sure way to get it done.

Worked like a charm! Many thanks for getting me on track, there.

.bat files are executable, or to be more precise: they are script files for DOS, or command, depending on which you have.
and their codes are executed by that program/OS(DOS=OS) when you try to execute them(the bat files)

don't die.
you get prisoners by attacking them, which destroys their ropes, and then accepting their reward.
but when you die you lose them, and have to redo the mission to get them back.

Anyone know how I can patch this using linux?

My text document wont save as a batch file when i rename it ??!!

Edit:

Ok so i got that patch thing working and applied it, but I'm still getting a 90% translation, the option and combat school menus are still Jap, is this meant to happen?

Because I have a slot 2 device and it loads off the r4.. or something like that. If I use latest firmware it wont load gba games

no clue what your talking about. my r4 with 1.18 firmware can play my m3lite (gba mode), my 3-in-1, and my flash2advance gba cart with no issues - all the time - everytime.

did you use a clean rom?
did you grab the file "patched.nds"?
when starting the game you should get a menu where you can choose the region.

I don't know about the other formats, but I know there are IPS patchers for Linux, grab one and use my patch (sig or first post).

i'm at mission 3 and there is a point were i cant get any further. is this a bug?

there is a big yellow ball with a skeleton-face on it, than it is right behind me, and then there is a elevator that wont work. the GO and its arrow point to the ground, the arrow at the elevator points to above. but i cant get anywhere. the yellow ball kills me everytime, you cannot jump over it, and even when you get behind it, it makes no diffrence, there will come another yellow ball when the first one is broken.

i'm just stuck, i tried so much stuff. anyone know what to do ?

Is the patched.nds located in the same folder?

 

[thedicemaster]

yes, it's the output file from the patcher.

ehi you can post a guide to extract tex and traductio this game for recomprimer file ad play' thx

 

[cinderella1arian]

don't waste your time patching the game... just download the patched game at mininova.org

 

[Mentz]

I'm not sure but this game got all the language we need... (EUR got multi5)...

 

[Devil May Cry]

I'm trying to do the patch but I don't now how to make the .txt into a .bat. I tried the cmd way but the bspatch application in the folder will run for a split second and then nothing would happen. I searched my laptop for the patched version but it isn't there. What exactly am I doing wrong. I am using a clean ROM.

You might be applying the wrong Patch. To get a 100% translation, follow this guide:

1 - Download this: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GP23N409

2 - Extract the contents to a separate folder.

Note: The html file which leads to nds roms will not be in the download folder. But you don't need that file.

3 - Place the Metal Slug 7 rom in the folder and call is 'xpa-ms7.nds'.

4 - Open up 'Commander Prompt'. Enter: CD 'folder location of files' (e.g. CD C:\Users\Thomas.Thomas-PC\Downloads\sq-ms7p). Press return.

5 - Now in 'Command Prompt', enter: baspatch xpa-ms7.nds patched.nds sq-ms7p.bdf

6 - Press Return and wait until the next sentence appears.

7 - A file called 'patched.nds' has been made. Just place that in your DS flash card memory, rename the file and PLAY!

8 - If you did everything correct, when you load the game, you should see a menu with three language options.

ok, for everyone who is still bothering with this patch business, STOP> lol. Since cheats.gbatemp.net had been updated with an AR code to change the language. No need for patching. I used the code, followed the simple instructions and played in full english and beat the game and all challenges. High five, fun, if albeit short game....
