  • Yeah... nothing at all. I've even zeroed all the data in those files and the game runs as if I hadn't changed anything.

    It's worked to allow me to replace cries, but no matter what I do to pokeanm.narc and pl_pokeanm.narc, it has no effect.
    This INCLUDES using HxD to totally erase all the bytes, leaving me with a 0 kb file. Reinserting that into the rom and taking a look at the rom again with Tinke or NitroExplorer3 confirms without a shadow of a doubt that the file IS being edited. But even erasing all the data, the rom still runs fine in DeSmuME, and all of the animations are the same. They're also the same even after starting a new save.

    So I'm totally lost. The steps I've followed all work, but the end result just is not there, and it seems nothing I do to those .narcs will influence any aspect of the rom at all.
