ROM Hack Pokemon Platinum: Enhanced Edition

[YottaByte]

Hey Wolf, is it possible to add more area's and trainers to the game or can you only work with what you're given? I can understand if you could add more the games size would get larger, but I don't think most people would mind about that. Have you tried added events for the legendaries?

 

[dragster215]

added you tarso.

anyone wants to be pwned by my 100's, ill be online for a few hours.

 

[alidsl]

Wolf can you try and get rid of the fog and dark caves as those are annoying and for n00bs

(I run through and hope im OK)

 

[xvolution]

^ also make it more user-friendly.

Good luck! Keep it simple.

Any suggestions on how to do this?

 

[Minarin]

An idea is to have it by areas instead of pokemon.

How did you get the information for the document?

 

[shrtyd227]

hi so i downloaded pokemon platinum enhanced and its an amazing hack but when i save it and turn off the ds the game just resets when its reopened. (im playing on an edge cart for the ds)

 

[Minarin]

Strange I have an edge card and it works fine.

 

[alidsl]

I had the same problem then used the dstt thread (link on first post)

works fin now

 

[dragster215]

I was thinking of going that route as well. It would make it much easier to sort the encounter percentages.
And as for how I got the info, which info?

Encounter info I got through WPEDS.
Info about the Catch Table and Substitutions? Here.

 

[Minarin]

Yeah the Encounter Info. Thanks.

Edit: Is it just me, or does the untrimmed 1.3 patch... well, not work? It stays at 0KB for minutes. It never took this long.

Try the patch again. It works perfectly for me.

It's almost the same. Yours was very good and detailed.
I have a quicker way in that method you gave.

(EDITED)
In this method, you must have dsbuff. Google it. This is also for DSTT users.

1.) Have the 1.3 patched ROM and the clean ROM
(Use the untrimmed ones)

2.) Open dsbuff

3.) Unpack the 1.3 patched rom

4.) Wait for a window that will appear, and copy the "data" and "overlay" folders.
Then, paste them in your desktop. (for easier access)

5.) Now back to dsbuff, unpack the clean ROM
(You may want to close dsbuff first, then re-open)

6.) then wait again for the window that will appear. Now cut the "data" and "overlay" folders
from your desktop and paste it in the pop-up window (the window that appeared).

7.) then pack the rom using dsbuff.

The fully patched rom's size should be atleast 99 mb.


And oh Sir Wolfsclaw,
is there a program where I can change a pokemon's sprite? Thanks.

I am completely confused on how to do this i tried like 5 times and got messed up first of all how do you unpack the 1.3.patch on dsbuff because when i tried to unpack it would only show the clean rom ad second when patching the clean rom where do i save the file


sorry it is just because i'm not like a huge genius when it comes to these stuff

Okay, sorry, I rushed through things.

First, have the clean rom, patched rom, in one folder.
Then, open dsbuff. Click on the folder icon, and browse the PATCHED rom (PlatinumEnhanced-1.3.nds), not "1.3.patch".

Now, click on "UnPack" on dsbuff. Wait for a window to appear, and copy the TWO FOLDERS from it.
Paste it anywhere you like but I recommend pasting it in your desktop.

After you've finished copying the folders, CLOSE dsbuff.

Then, open dsbuff again. Now, browse the clean pokemon platinum (U) rom by clicking the folder icon.
Click on "UnPack". Wait for a window to appear. DON'T CLOSE THE WINDOW.

Now, back to the desktop. Copy the TWO folders ("data" and "overlay" folders)
from your desktop to the window that appeared.

Wait for the copying to finish.

Finally, go back to dsbuff.
Click on "Pack".
This will now save the fully patched rom.
You can choose any destination and filename you want your fully-patched rom to be.

[xeagle360]

[tarso21]

Where do i find a Rayquaza

please be specific THANK YOU

According to the guide, you can find Rayquaza in "Victory Road Back Room 3", wherever that is

Hope that helps.
Also, anyone with level 50 or so Pokemon, lets battle a little

You have to patch the rom normally first.
Follow the instructions given by Wolfsclaw (the readme.txt).

After patching, you'd get PlatinumEnhanced-1.3.nds

 

[quickfingers]

okay thanks for that info i will have to try it out right now

thanks for everything it now works so thank you

 

[xvolution]

Yes, Rayquaza is in Victory Road Back Room 3 (dunno where that is either, but it's where WPEDS says it's at

)

Good luck. It's at Lv.90
