Platinum hack: Refined Platinum Overhaul [COMPLETE]

RefinedPlat said:
Assuming you have the patch working right (which I assume is the case) and are not accidentally repel manipping or leading with a high level Intimidate mon, it's just bad luck. A 20% chance is just a 1/5 dice roll every time you have an encounter, you'll find it eventually. The only thing that can override the encounter entirely is Repel or a Slakoth swarm.

I think the patch should be working, and I never use Repel item thing. Coz at Route 205, i should encounter Combee at 10% chance (day time). I walked around, i could easily encounter it like twice in 10 encounters, while the Burmy is like none :cry:

And you know what? I attempted to try to encounter Burmy at night time just now. Voila! I encountered it 5 times in 10 encounters! I think Burmy can only be encountered during night time. Maybe you need to update your documentation?

The hex values should be about the same as a normal set of shiny edits, but I don't know where they are off the top of my head. I would check out Kingdom of DS Hacking or the DS Modding Community servers to ask about it in greater detail.
I will not support any mini patches and such to edit the shiny rate for obvious logistical reasons, but you can do that kind of thing to your personal file if you want to!

Yeah managed to find it here on site, took a while since search engines are so awful nowadays. Figured since your patch is close to Vanilla that its unchanged in the code. Unfortunately just like the OG poster mentioned its only save specific so PKHex is necessary for it to be 'permanent' outside your save.

Anyways enjoying your romhack really appreciate your work!

(Kinda wish following plat was compatible but maybe someone down the road might make it work! Or if you ever felt like to do it sometime in the future)

Literally impossible that this would be the case, I know how the encounters work you just got unlucky. RNG is like that.

Glad you figured it out! Good job :D
Following Plat is basically incompatible with anything, it was built like that on purpose. Even if it wasn't, I wouldn't add it in for numerous reasons, but it's also nigh impossible to do regardless.
 
I seem to be unable to patch it. I could possibly have been using the wrong version of platinum. I can't find any rom that specify v1 or v1.1. Is there somewhere specifically I can look or does delta patcher not work for this rom hack?

I got a file labelled as rev 1 and it still didn't work. Does xDelta not work maybe? (Edit: So, I can patch it with Coarse version, But I can't with the overhaul for some reason)
 
Hey so, I really wanna play this RomHack, and I'm trying to on Android. However, every time I try to patch the rom and the refined platinum hack, it says something along of lines of × not allowed: secondary decompressor

I have nooo idea what that means as I am a COMPETE noob, I mean I just started getting into rom hacks yesterday noob 😭😭😭 I looked it up and nothing I tried helped me, it just repeated the message.

I've patched a couple of small rom hacks since yesterday but nothing as big as this i think. I have no idea where the problem lies and it's killing me inside. I gotta know if someone can help me 😭😭😭

I have no idea how to use any of these sites on my phone (playing on a phone emulator) so unless I can find a prepatched version of this somewhere I will probably not be able to play this

were you able to play this at all? I know you wrote this only a little bit ago but I'm having the exact same problem as you, can't play this on my phone at all which sucks.

Use delta-wasm, it's covered in the first page:

To play, simply apply to a clean Platinum v1.1 USA. A copy of Platinum v1.0, or any other region, will not work.
At time of writing, the Unipatcher does not work - use delta-wasm if you are a mobile user.

Have really enjoyed this rom hack. Played through the e4, stark mt, and now trying to catch all the legendaries. Referencing the Google Doc change log, I've captured all of the 4d0 Vanilla legendaries and all of the 4d1 Post-Dex legendaries. It seems that none of the 4d2 Post Stark legendary encounters are present in the given locations. Am I missing a flag somewhere in game? I thought I made it through Stark in its entirety seeing as I was able to capture Shaymin which notes having to complete Stark. Any advice on this?

It appears I missed a flag clearing and it is currently set up such that when you talk to the hint NPC in Survival Area after Stark it will calibrate the flag correctly, but actually completing Stark doesn't do it in the current version. Let me know if either talking to the hint NPC or using the Oven in Twinleaf helps.
v6.0.2 will let you run straight to Kyogre etc after Stark if you really want to. But I advise not doing so and at least using the hint NPC for the immersion of the scavenger hunt. In fact I might even make a handful require an arbitrary endgame goal as Battle Zone isn't REALLY comparable to RGO Kanto, but that's a different topic.

Bingo, speaking with the hint NPC in the Survival Area set the flag needed. I definitely agree that going through the flag progression was both easier and I'd rather progress the way it is intended. Did not know about the oven, but that's a cool tool to drop in.

Thanks again for all your hard work on this, you've done a great job!
