I'm not very good in English so I decided to create a video showing exactly the problem



But in summary, I can use AltWFC without problems in Mario Kart DS, but even using exactly the same configuration I can't use in my Pokémon SoulSilver, the game freezes after try to connect on WFC

I thought the problem could be ROM (I'm using a ROM with the Portuguese Translation Patch from Brazil), but none of the normal ROMS work, some even work before applying the WFCPatcher, but the majority I tested presents Error Code 5, none of the ROMS of Pokémon Diamond worked (even running on DeSmume) with or without patch

Pokémon Diamond does not have any Save File (since I did not play the game), but the Pokémon SoulSilver has the save file that I use in VC Inject on Wii U

Please someone help me, I just want to be able to transfer my Pokémon Classico between Diamond and SoulSilver, none of the '' local '' options worked, No $ GBA hangs, Melon DS only works on 64 Bit systems, I only have the option to try online between DeSmume and my Nintendo DS systems.

Start with trying to connect with a unused save file. If that works try removing anything related to WiFi on the Pokemon save like friends.

So... i can't use my Wii U VC Inject save file or my diamond file from R4 ?

Anyway I'm having another problem, after switching to a more current Wood I can not put any SoulSilver Pokémon ROM with the WFC Patch = / nor if it wants to execute, when it runs black screen


One of the ROMS without Patch worked

We are just trying to narrow down the issue. If the clean save file fixes it, we can try to get your original to work the best we can. By unused save file I mean delete your .sav file (after backuping it)

Try cheat code and DNS method instead of patching/DNS?

How I do this?

I did the Patch of the game but along with this I also used the server's DNS in the settings, this is how it had worked with Mario Kart by the way

Does your patched mk work with the newer wood? Make sure your patcher isn't specific to Mario kart.

I'be always had issues getting wfcpatched ROMs working on wood. Im suprised they boot at all. All my wfcpatched ROMs just whitescreen or blackscreen.
Same here with Pokémon Diamond and SoulSilver

for some reason Mario Kart DS works fine.

I Format my MicroSD 2 GB again, Pokémon Diamond and SoulSilver it's work fine without patch now, but the same games with WFC Patch don't work...

Diamond don't boot up ( it's a DS ICON with ''?'' )
SoulSilver it's got a black screen again, some solution ?

I think I solved the problem, I bought another 2GB Micro SD (one used, it was the only one I could find, the old store I bought the previous one had no more 2GB cards)

I formatted, I spent the games with the AltWFC patch and to my surprise, everyone was with the normal icon and Pokémon SoulSilver FINALLY worked, did not give the problem of getting black screen and only the sound came out this time

Other than the previous video it did not crash when connecting to AltWFC but I can not connect because they give these errors:

But I do not think this is a Kernel / Wood, MicroSD or R4 problem, because this time I already have Friend Code, I believe the problem is just the internet (my WiFi is WPA2 so I used my Smartphone to create a SoftAP with the 3G Network, and 3G from Brazil is by far one of the worst internets I've ever experienced) I think I can solve this problem if I find a way to create a SoftAP WEP by computer or by the mobile phone itself
Thank you all for your patience with my English and for helping me, I really wanted to find a way to reciprocate all of you.

I tried to change the configuration of my router to WEP, but the error in the Pokémon persisted, despite having managed to connect with Mario Kart DS I decided to delete my WFC configuration to see if I could connect, now I do not even want to configure the connection =/

Try making sure you are in your patched rom when setting up internet.
Can your phone/non ds device connect to the wep wifi correctly? If you don't live in a crowded area you can try temporarily making the wifi no password.
Also use https://wiimmfi.de/error to look up errors.

    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!
