If I use this new patch, can I use my old save and then it take effect dirrectly or I have to start a new game?

Epic patch dude. I got youtube videos up of the 2.5c patch in action I'll have to make a new one for 3.
Thanks again. :]

I think one of the next things to work on is WiFi, I attempted 2.5c on Heart Gold with the Arm7, and it didn't freeze but it came up with a japanese message and exited the WiFi room. :(

Gah. Hope 3.5 is out before I get my 3rd badge. It would be epiccc. xD
Anywho. How far is everyone? I'm on my way to union cave.
And does anyone have a Heartgold where you can see Ho-Oh in the "Press Start" Screen?
Minor bug. D:

Unfortunately no$ can't play the new version it just black screens after clicking continue. Also my rom on my M3 just starts anew so I'm slightly annoyed.

Thanks Magius! Works like a charm for v3!

One thing I noticed is that v3 no longer anti-pirates the rom? Not sure what ndstool.exe is for, but I had it patch.bat over the previously anti-piracy patched rom instead. =)

Edit: Please get your rom patched with the best anti-piracy patch for your hardware beforhand. - For clarity, by Magius 1st post

Very cool, does anyone have a link for the security patch? Is there a way to apply the secuirty patch using the old patcher? Really need help man.

I don't like the fact that you removed the ability to patch the security thing.

So far great work. Battles are a lot less painful since I can actually read the moves and know all battle effects.

I don't know if this will be useful for the translation but GameFAQs has the complete script of Crystal Version. If you are not gonna copy and paste the Crystal text, maybe just use it as a reference?

You can use your old save as long as the name of the file is the same as the rom.

Now, can someone tell me how to put the security patch on this?

How do I add the security patch to the translation? Do I have to use a clean rom?

how do you get msg.narc from a heart gold rom? i hav thenewpoketext and nds tool but in just creates an empty folder. also if you tell me, i will start translating some overworld dialougue text but use your patch as a base. i'll copy some text from crystal
but translate most of it.

copy a/0/2/7 to msgdata/msg.narc after you load the nds file, then start editing. remember to put the file back before rebuilding.



also, minor update to 3a
