Dude, just use my IPS patch from my sig. I assume there are IPS patchers for Mac OS, even Jesus patched his ROMs with IPS.

I tried patching it and after it says "Save Data cannot be read". Anyone else getting this problem?

If you're using an R4 you need the latest firmware.

WTF has R4 firmware got to do with GBA games?

 

[SuperUpperCut]

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

 

[bunnybreaker]

I'm using the latest firmware and it loads my EFA just fine.

edit: technically, that's a lie, sometimes it says it can't find anything in slot 2, so I have to powercycle the DS (then it usually works first time), but my EFA is faulty, so I always assume that's the problem.

Used dominator's way and it worked perfectly! There is some scattered Japanese text, but everything else is in English.

 

[VISHI SO FISHI]

works like a beauty from even the patch and renaming the file way...

Gr8 stuff guys really appreciate it..

 

[Alastair]

bunnybreaker, is your patch to English or American?

Edit: Whichever language it's in, it work's a treat! Cheers, mate!

 

[litium]

Awesome. I tought that i would be stuck with japanese MS7. Thanks.

 

[BoosLee]

Weird, I've done the patch tutorial (i dont know how to apply ips patches and stuff so i just did the tutorial) and I'm still getting japanese text in the options and combat school screen like some other people, is there a workaround for this?

Applying an IPS patch is extremely easy. http://fusoya.eludevisibility.org/lips/index.html

 

[jHoNDoE]

patched and trimmed:

with ms7US.zip = 61.8 MB

with ms7jpn2eng.rar = 61.5 MB

mine, manually made, following the guide: 61.3 MB

I swapped "jp" with "gb", so technically, it's UK English, but I suspect the US and GB variants are the same.

Cool, so there are Mac IPS patchers, I thought there would be.

Thanks DarthNemesis, I really should have added some more ifo, but I assumed (wrongly) that everyone knows about IPS patches. Damn, now I think about it, I have been using IPS patches for over 10 years.

For anyone that doesn't know, there is no way to get 100% English, but it's really not necessary, the patches translate the missions in challenge mode, the character descriptions and some other stuff, you don't really need the few things left in Japanese.


edit: Thank you Dominator for putting a link in the first post
