I have a bit of a problem..I am stuck on level 2-7 and I am not sure what im doing wrong can somebody give me tips? I keep getting raped by those friggin football zombies and the final wave after the graves spawn a crap-ton of zombies.

Use the angry-explosive cherry plants for the final wave.

I've had 2 graphical glitches so far. One time the main menu background was black and the other time some yellow lines were drawed in the top right corner during the minigame with the overheated plants.
That's just bad.

I haven't had any at all. You must be doing it wrong

The invisible background was the fault of the DSTWO's soft-reset feature.
The other is unknown.

quick question. is it possible to cancel out the crosshairs/aiming mode of the cob cannon? i often tap it by mistake and end up activating it when i dont mean to.

This game suffers from major slowdown! I completed adventure, mini games, puzzles, and surival and got the golden flower trophy with no problems. The only cheat i used was the max money.

However, when i played endless survival the game crashed when i reached 7 flags! I had 2 rows of flowers, row of cob cannons and 3 rows of tall-nuts.

Obviously the DS is so underpowered it can't handle too many sprites. I tried again, this time whittling down rows of flowers, tall-nuts but could only manage to reach 8 flags before it crashed again. Yet some people have claimed to reach 14 flags!

And, i cant fill out the Almanac, there is one last zombie, i think it's the trash carrying zombie. Well i've reached him in survival endless, purposely died before the game crashed to save but it still won't fill out the Almanac.

Also, how do i get mushroom and acquatic plants in the Zen garden?

Does the retail version run faster than the ROM backup? With no freezing? If so i might have to get it as i'm obsessed with zombies. I heard it was only $20 i can live with that.

May I ask, who here owns the original retail cart? I want to ask if the game does not lag and freeze(specifically on Survival Endless) and reads faster rather than on flashcarts? I'm interested in buying a copy if its better there.

Thanks

I have an retail cart, but haven't noticed any lag so far. I haven't opened up Survival mode yet, but I will load my save back onto my cart to compare.

anyone else really wish this game had an online leaderboard for the endless modes? would provide an incentive to keep playing for me.

Another graphical glitch; this time level 4-1, when selecting the plants on the cards dissapeared and some weird yellow lines
What are you using to play the game? I'm using a DStwo, and I've beaten the game and haven't gotten any of the glitches you described.

I'm using a DSTWO and I've completed Adventure mode one time.
There is a small possible chance this one is also caused by the soft-reset feature but that is very unlikely.
I'm using the RobotKillers dump, even if both are the same.

    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
