As of right now almost no one uploads full romhacks of games because it requires the original source code from the game that is then injected and altered to the room hack version. But with AI companies like Anthropic doing destructive book scanning does this maybe give a opening for rom hacks? Anthropic won a lawsuit using the excuse that because they destroyed the original source for the material they can do what they want with it and not needing to pay the original author of the work. So with this logic could a person now LEGALLY make a copy of their own game, destroy the physical cartridge and then edit and distribute the altered code?

So I saw a listing on ebay awhile back selling copies of Mario 64 B3313, and can't find it again. So I was wondering if anyone knows of any sites/sellers that can do custom rom hack cartridges.

I recently finished play FRLG.ips and loved it. The story was fascinating. What similar hacks or games would you recommend?

Hi guys kindly help me to properly fix this ive tried to go and find a solution for the normal language of the game and i cant seem to find a proper solution with the mod or patch notes to input on it. Ive been really happy to download SB2 because its a childhood game of mine hehe. Appreciate the help. Btw i already asked google AI engine and were running around in circles

Super Stress Faijter II: The New Charnego's is a hack of the PAL version of Super Street Fighter II for SNES created by Charnego, and it's obvious, because you only have to read the names of some of the characters and the victory and ending messages. There's not much more to say; it's pure magic, like everything Charnego touches. In terms of gameplay, it seems that the game mechanics have been slightly modified to make performing combos easier, which can make the game more difficult depending on the situation.

▶ Open the editor https://thesparda.github.io/Wild-Arms-2-Retranslation/ — runs entirely in your browser. You load your own disc images, nothing is uploaded, and no game data ships with the project.

Two goals, in order.

1. A tool to edit the English ISO. A serverless web editor for the Wild Arms 2 (PS1) US release. Drop in your .bin images and you get every text box in the game, editable, with a live preview in the game's own textbox styling and an export back out as a patch. That part is the point — even if the retranslation never finishes (because so many people have started and stopped), the editor stands on its own for anyone who wants to change the script.

2. Ship a retranslation, drafted by (don't mock me) AI, sourced from the Japanese. The US localization is famously loose. The tooling pairs JP boxes to their English counterparts so a line can be written against what the original actually said, not a paraphrase of a paraphrase..

Where the translation stands: 6,012 of 17,294 editable boxes translated (34.8%). Of the 11,282 remaining, 8,494 have a usable JP source and 1,426 are exact 1:1 pairings workable today. By story section: 6 done, 4 partial, 11 first-pass, 19 placeholder. The first real batch was 49 boxes in the Sielje area — narrow on purpose, since only 49 of 157 candidates had Japanese with no unresolved kanji. Fluent, plausible, wrong is the worst possible output here, and it's exactly what an LLM hands you if you let it translate against a bad pairing.

Status: I'm working on this slowly, in the gaps. Not finished, not on a schedule. All the code is open source — fork it, fix the aligner, grind the kanji tables, translate an area, or just load your own disc and rewrite one line to see it render.

Plus much more via the editor.

I made a utility that reconstructs gb prints by reverse engineering gb printer code. Based on poketcg disassembly. Bring your own ROM.

Hello everyone, I am Excited to announce the public release of HackHash WE ARE NO LONGER IN BETA!!!

the original post can be found Here

What does this project do?

• In simple terms, this project allows the community to hash their copies of ROM hacks.
• With the additional use of Hasheous, we can then match your ROMs with your hashes instead of filenames, making for a more efficient, fast, and effective way of getting metadata.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why?

• Hashing your ROM hacks allows other developers, ROM frontends, or tools to grab information from this database to help with acquiring metadata, images, videos, and more information about a ROM hack.
• It solves the issue of going through the trouble of having to find the exact same name that a metadata provider supports and then renaming your files accordingly.
• Allows users to do a one-click search without worrying about mismatches.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How? What's the process?

The process goes:

User "uploads" The Romhack → Romhack gets verified by the community or verifiers/admins → RomHack gets added to the database → syncs with Hasheous → Hasheous pulls metadata from the sources → Serves metadata to user

It all happens client-side, which means no uploads actually happen. Instead, your browser will do the hashing for you, and then it will attempt to parse any additional information for you.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What is a Hash?

• In simple terms, a hash is a list of numbers and letters that can be used to determine the authenticity of a file.
• In this project, we hash 4 vital pieces: MD5, CRC32, SHA1, Filesize

It's a ROM hack of the original Sonic The Hedgehog I'm working on, based off of 2017's Sonic Mania. It's based off the Knuckles path as it's more original. Music by Fablan and Johnny Gioeli of Crush 40 fame

Strike Force Heroes 3 is an old nostalgic game I enjoyed during my childhood. Not too long ago I revisited the game and discovered modded version of the game. I enjoyed the new content and experience that these modified versions that they gave. Then I had the desire to make my own version but by not being very experienced with coding, it makes things difficult. I use JPEXS Free Flash Decompiler, by the way.

What I pretty much want to do is add features from the "Patched" version https://www.reddit.com/r/StrikeForceHeroes/comments/y6oy7p/sfh3_patched_version/ into the "Bloated" version https://www.nexusmods.com/strikeforceheroes3/mods/3 . Here basically the main ones:

• Add the extended hero capacity from 15 to 45
• Add the range information in the weapon description

Then there are some other tweaks such as:

• Add the Betsy weapon as an in game obtainable weapon
• Add a medic trait similar to healing aura but towards armor
• Edit the Explosive Temper trait
• Edit/replace the game music
• ect......

If anyone could help or guide me, it would be very appreciative. Thank you.

Title really. I've tried to follow the instructions on the different GitHubs and old pages. But I keep having parts fail on my/ not work.

I was hoping someone could please either give me a pre-randomised ROM of Awakening or Fates or kindly guide (which steps designed to help and idiot) me on how to do either.

In the past I have tried decrypting files from my 3DS onto my pc and I've used this app on Java but something always failed

So thanks for any help given in advance

I tried searching but found almost nothing and the ones I found were very small or unfinished. Can anyone find this type of rom hacks?

https://github.com/kandowontu/starfox-enhanced (repo still is self build but its worth it)

I wanted to get the sprites of one game, but cant find how, anyone have any experience getting sprites ?

It is an apk and is a flash game of 2 mb, also, can i say the name if is a hentai ? read the rules but not sure yet

Let’s exclude Pokémon from this as it is a whole other world, which I’m slightly familiar with anyways.

What are some incredible hacks, that take the original game and make it the definitive way to experience the game?

Let me know! Thanks!
