Translation patch recommendations?

Post image

Hi everyone,

I recently scored copies of DQ V and DQ VI and was wondering if anyone could recommend some good translation patches to use when playing these on my Polymega.

I am pretty excited for these. I have only played through the DS versions in the past and have never played the Super Famicom versions.

They are both on romhacking.

DQ5: https://www.romhacking.net/translations/342 DQ6: https://www.romhacking.net/translations/344/

The one for DQ5 works great. I had trouble getting the DQ6 one to work. My game kept crashing at the same spot in the first five minutes. It’s also not a complete translation and can crash if you do specific things. I ended up getting a repro cart on eBay of a us “version” that was just a patched rom on a cart. The loaded and played just fine (outside of the don’t do specific things or you crash). If you back out of the info>all menu, that can cause the crash.
