ROM Hack Rudolph's Universal "Child's Play" patch

[sk8mystery23]

Does anyone know if cheats work with this patch? Or if cheats even exist?

Why use cheats when you can pokesav your way to victory?

Edit: I guess thats technically considered cheating... if you get caught.

Hmmmm, I may have to learn more about this "Pokesav".... Thanks!

Which ROM are you guys using the ARM7.bin from?

Thanx

EDIT:
I got it already, I'm using the Pokémon Platinum ARM7.bin

Problem was I wasn't being able to unpack the Pokemon Platinum with the DSBuff, so couldn't extract the ARM7 from it...

But using the ARM7_FIX it worked perfectly...

Thanks anyways!

And now all of a sudden it randomly works...

Working 100% so far!

Using R4DS v1.18

No ysmenu or anything, just the simple old R4DS.


THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Hey guys, I PMed OP about this a few days ago but didn't see any update.

Using M3DS Real with latest firmware and Sakura (4.8x and 1.47 respectively). I have all 16 badges, and beat everything including Red. No freezes after hours of gameplay. Oh, and it works fine with cheats enabled too >_>

Thanks Rudolph great job!!!!

I tested it in R4 original with kernel 1.18 and it works perfect, but in R4Ultra doesn´t work.

R4Ultra does work as does R4i(both clones from r4ultra.com)

You need to be running latest kernel(1.55 although it will still say 1.54 on the screen), ive been playing for 21 hours now and no freezes/black screens

Here's link to latest kernel 1.55(the link on main site in broken): http://www.r4ds-ds.com/Kernel/d/en_1.55.rar

hello, so i have some question that im sure most of people also wonder about. First, it is freezing. does this new patch 100% anti freeze? or just to make it better than wut is now. I heard some people froze at 70 event or something.. is it 100% compatitble?

1) is it 100% anti freeze?
2) is it 100% compatible?
3) is it 100% no limited encounters?
4) does anyone ever froze after playing with this new patch?

thank you!!

Yes yes yes

but also depends sometime in the card

It's not working on my no$gba. The rom crashes after a set of events. Used the code as listed in the first post and patched it and everything.

How did you do it? I have a G6DS Real that shares the same firmware (4.8x) and I can't find a way to save my progress, I keep getting the blue error screen saying something about the backup memory...

Any help would be appreciated.

You have to change the ARM7.bin.
Download the ARM7_FIX here on gbatemp...
You will have 2 folders when you extract it, one called "donor" and one called "patient".
Put a Pokemon Platinum ROM on donor and your HeartGold/SoulSilver ROM on patient...
Then run the "fix" and wait, there will be a new ROM called fixed.nds on the ARM7_FIX folder, rename it the same name of your .SAV file (but with .nds and no .sav) and there you go!

Did I help?

but Rupolhs AP patch makes change in the arm7.bin

but Rupolhs AP patch makes change in the arm7.bin

Are you sure? I was having the same problem of data erasing due to corruption from time to time, so I changed the ARM7.bin using ARM7_FIX and it worked. With the Pokemon Platinum ROM... No more problems with saved data.

I use the N5 card... Just to let you guys know, may be a problem with N5 compatibility, not really sure...

You're welcome, I was having the same trouble and I know how desperating and frustrating it is!

QUOTE(Stefan330 @ Apr 1 2010, 01:25 PM) Yes the AP patch makes changes but i think it was not AP changes also the arm7 fix could working

I am not sure that the patcher changes the ARM7.bin
But I think there's a lot of people having this problem before using ARM7_FIX, so, if Rudolph's patcher was to fix it, I don't think we would have this data corruption...

 

[Stefan330]

Can you upload the Arm7_fix on hotfile because filetrip don´t work for me

 

[yusuo]
