Also to anyone who has the rom, such as me. They have placed in an anti piracy method which disables the gaining of experience in battles. It appears this is being worked on though...

ya, it's already been patched by hackers (such as myself). It only took like a day to fix that, now they're working on an english patch, which sounds difficult

Confirmed.

Am working on this for White, will look into for Black and do some serious comparion.

Seems like each location slot have 116 bytes EACH!!!

AND 146 LINES of 116 bytes per line, lol!

Peace. :)

O.o

Take the .sseq file SEQ_BGM_POKECEN from Black and overwrite SEQ_GS_WIFITOWER in Heart Gold and go to the Global Terminal. You'll be surprised.
Also, take the Pokemon Center sseq file from HG and overwrite it with the BW PC theme. You'll get another surprising result.

It's probably not a wild guess to imagine the Pokémon Center music was either worked on early in the music process when the instrument numbers were the same as HGSS or that the composer used those patch numbers as a reference when making the song.

So i tried opening the ows in Tahaxan, but that didnt work so the only other possible thing to do was to extract and open in BTX Editor which doesent recognize the file even thought it IS a .btx So i can't imagine any way to do it unless Magius updates the program. If any of you have an idea of how you could open the .btx files through an other program, please tell me!

...That is if the text can be extracted. thenewpoketext cannot do it.

Software for editting directly isn't everything my friend.
Hacking started and IS STILL deeply rooted in editted HEX as opposed to using tools that make everything seem easier when they're mostly very glitchy.

If they can't use a tool to edit the text directly, they'll do so by using a Hex Editor.

Yeah, I have two versions of Black. My dump and my dump with the KazoWAR patch. Text editing does exist. It was done. Very flawed, but still.
