ROM Hack Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver translation

[wshader]

If i use this will the pokemon still be legit?

As long as they are legit caught in the game they will be. If your that concerned use the Katana patch.

Anyway next version of getting the names of important phone numbers translated like Oak and Mom so I can delete all these useless trainers calling me

Things you will find in my patch that won't be in others

Spoiler

• The menu no longer yells at you. (example: Attack instead of ATTACK)
• Translated text. That's right, I do not copy and paste from previous Pokémon titles for the most part. All new items and descriptions will have translated text.
• When possible, I change "OK" to "okay".
• Other tidbits of text that won't be found anywhere else.

What remains

Spoiler

• Physical menu interface [75%]
• Pokédex [100%]
• Pokémon [99%] (I have the strangest feeling that I may have missed something. People, please report to me ASAP if you find anything)
• Bag [90%] (All items and descriptions inserted; most items translated, no descriptions translated yet) [NOTE*Mostly inserted from Platinum]
• PokéGear [75%] (Most locations done, no descriptions done yet)
• Trainer Card [100%]
• Report [100%]
• Options [100%]

Hey. if I patch this will it translate the game to English? I only need the patch to stop freezing but not translating patch since I speak Japanese better than English..

 

[Kasumi Yawa]

No more freeze and blackscreen with the patch 3.0 on SuperCard

 

[XxOblivion77]

I'm using M3DSiZero flashcard with m3 sakura, and I tried to save right after getting access to the menu and it's just hanging there. Just says "saving a lot of data... Don't turn off the power." The music is still playing in the background but I guess it's frozen >

Just download this and unfold it to whatever directory you want, and just Drag'n'drop the CLEAN unpatched rom on the Patch.exe. It may take a while, but the executable tells you when it's finished with a pop-up that says "patch finished" or something like that. The .nds is the patched file and the .bak is your clean rom, so use the .nds on your Emu/Linker/everything else, and rename the .bak to .nds if you need to try an other patch

I tried to patch the game but I got, "xdelta3: target window checksum mismatch: XD3_INVALID_INPUT"
I'm using a brand new pokemon soul sliver and heart gold, untrimmed and unpatched, anyone know what's wrong?

 

[blackfoxx]

Could someone please tell me whats the difference between the localized translation and the katakana translation ?

Also will all the dialogues be in english too ?

 

[Chotaz]

Katakana= Japanese pkmn names.
Localized= english/european pkmn names.

 

[iFish]

when is 4.0 gonna be up tonight?

 

[Dialga.The.Maste]

Works in M3 Sakura but with ARM7 patch

I have a problem patching the HG. After it was unrared i coppied all of the file and the rom into a folder. I follow the included the instruction exactly and it comes up with an error. In the instructions it refurs to a "dragRomhere.bat" or something along those lines, although this file isn't included with the package. Any help?

I also have a problem I get "xdelta3: target window checksum mismatch: XD3_INVALID_INPUT"
my file is brand new and has not been trimmed or patched. Any help would be nice.

 

[Chotaz]

leave the original scene name on the rom, it'll work.

 

[Krobelus]

I've noticed a couple mistakes in the translation.

Hastey is supposed Hasty.

Some Ability descriptions hide behind the graphics, when there is room on the second line (like Tauros's Ability).

If I find more I'll post.

Hi. Just wanted to post real quick to confirm that I've got both of these working on a CycloDS v1.55.

About 12 or so hours in on both and not a single save or freezing problem.

Didn't see it on the "confirmed working" list, so...
