Leon Labs Presents: The Complete FireRed Decapitalization Patch
Introduction
Hello everyone, by now a lot of you would already be familiar with my projects such as the Ultimate Rom Base. Historically, patches like that Ultimate Rom Base and MrDS's base have been used for many reasons, among them being the decapitalization of Fire Red. Unfortunately, neither of those patches FULLY decapitalized the entire rom, as certain map scripts or menus were actively ignored. Previous editions of the Ultimate Rom Base have tried to remedy this, but itself has fallen into that pitfall. So what point am I trying to make?
Well, I've finally done it, and I decided to release a patch for it separate from my other projects!
Here's a list of what has been decapitalized:
Edit: When obtaining multiple berries, the text will read BerrIES. To fix this, go to 0x3A72A2 and change 3 bytes to DD D9 E7
Edit 2: To fix the text issue of obtaining multiple Poke Balls (Player obtained Poke BallS), change 0x3A72A0 to E7
Nothing else in the rom has been touched, and this patch works on any clean copy of FireRed. When my Ultimate Rom Base gets a future update, this will already be pre-included into it, so there is no need to patch both of them.
I also recommend applying this patch before using Skeli and Ghoulslash's DPE and/or CFRU system. I do not know how this patch will react to MrDS's base, so you are free to try. I don't exactly recommend it.
