Hi!
I found a patch for Crystal from P/S/Split. The patch works, but I checked it in the Hex Editor. It turned out that in some place in the rom, it changes some bytes that were changed in your hack, compared to the original rom. Also I think that even though it works, it shouldn't be used on your hack.

Mhh, I don't know, the change is in more of one bank? Could be in the same I filled to add the Safari Zone? I passed the entire day to fix the glitch, then if you could verify this could be useful, considering that I'm not interested to add this mechanic too, considering that was introduced in GEN 4 and then my G/S/C wouldn't appear legit. And instead is what I want, then if isn't too tedious I could help to adapt the hack to this patch, but only if doesn't touch areas where I added stuff too complex to move in other places. If you verify which banks are involved I could perhaps try.

It makes no sense. I also think that PSS makes no sense in Crystal. It's just more of a curiosity 😉
 
will you fix nighttime roof palette in ruins of alph in next version? if yes then use palette for unused indigo plateau roof palette before it looks similar to one used in ruins of alph

Excuse me, which roof? If you're talking about the roof of the little lab that have a weird color, Isn't related to my changes, the clean roms do this too.

I'm not sure if is possible, perhaps I already used the tile you say for the sea in Seafoam Islands and that roof need of more of 1 tile, it need 3 tiles.

try loading ruins of alph during nighttime and you will see
 
I seen only the roof of the lab that appear a bit odd.
well i used nighttime roof palette from unused indigo plateau variant and it looks identical to one used in ruins of alph so i replaced it with indigo one but i can do it only for gold and silver im not sure how to achieve same in crystal since most of map editors what support it do not allow to edit palettes or tiles
 
Sorry for the late response, I forgot about this for a while. I tried both ways you suggested, they both crash on booting the game. It's also not something I'd want anyway, since I want the games to be separate games from the official versions on my 3DS, not replacing them.
 
The only way I know to obtain a working trade patch is disassembly the clean cia, replace the rom and reassembly the cia.

I did it for italian versions and worked. For crystal I had to rewrite the original checksum (updated otherwise in a lot of emulators the game couldn't boot) or otherwise the mistery gift worked glitched.

If you downloaded an US version of the CIA already patched, perhaps they did it simply using a tool to pack a new CIA from a GBC rom. But in this way the trades will not work. You need ot unpack the original CIA, go in the folder including an odd file by 2 megabytes like the rom, copy the name, paste on patched rom (or use the IPS file directly to that file) and repack it. Should works then, like for me that I did it for italian Gold, Silver and Crystal, and all 3 roms worked.
I meant to reply to this but accidentally hit quote instead.
