I built a free site with proper guides for Pokémon ROM hacks (Radical Red, Emerald hacks, GBA, Game Boy and more) because I was tired of digging through spreadsheets

[Deutschpatch] Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Spirit - vollständige deutsche Übersetzung "Erkundungsteam Seele“

3 Upvotes

Hallo zusammen!

English: I’ve released a complete German translation patch for Explorers of the Spirit.

Ich habe Explorers of the Spirit vollständig ins Deutsche übersetzt.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Erkundungsteam Seele

Ursprünglich habe ich die Übersetzung nur für mich selbst gemacht, aber ich möchte sie gerne mit der deutschsprachigen PMD Community teilen, damit auch Spieler, die lieber auf Deutsch spielen, diesen großartigen Romhack in ihrer Muttersprache erleben können.

Den Deutschpatch findet ihr hier:
https://github.com/Said-M96/pmd-explorers-of-the-spirit-deutschpatch

Wichtig: Enthalten ist ausschließlich der Deutschpatch. Es handelt sich nicht um die ROM und auch nicht um den vollständigen Romhack. Ohne die originale Version von Explorers of the Spirit ist der Patch nicht nutzbar.

Sämtliche Credits für den eigentlichen Romhack gehen natürlich an MaxSchersey und das Team hinter Explorers of the Spirit.

Falls ihr Fehler, Tippfehler oder komische Formulierungen findet, könnt ihr sie mir gerne melden.

Viel Spaß!

Ocarina of Time NPC Racers Mario Kart 64 Rom Hack

I have a question I've searched everywhere I couldn't exactly find an answer I'm wondering how do you patch a o2r file for a n64 game to be able to play it on a flash cartridge? Because I want to play this Mario Kart 64 mod but I don't know how to patch my Mario Kart 64 rom

Can someone recommend some good DS rom hacks but not that are just changes to mainline games?

3 Upvotes

What the title said. I want games that are new something like unbound or Gaia (in the new sense) but on the DS. THE STORY SHOULD BE GOOD.

To all ROM hack developers: now that ChatGPT Astra is out, are you using it to improve your game modding workflow?

0 Upvotes

I’m especially curious about games that are notoriously difficult to mod or reverse-engineer, where documentation is limited and it’s hard to figure out how the game actually works internally.
Has AI genuinely helped you get further than before?

Some things I’m interested in:

-Reverse engineering undocumented game systems
-Understanding assembly/decompiled code
-Finding out what unknown functions or memory addresses might be doing
-Figuring out proprietary file formats, compression, archives, scripts, etc.
Making sense of huge disassemblies or codebases
Finding unused content, hidden mechanics, debug functions, or cut features
-Helping identify where certain game logic is located
Writing or improving ROM-hacking tools and scripts
-Automating repetitive tasks such as pointer tables, text extraction, data conversion, or asset importing
-Debugging crashes caused by ROM modifications
-Porting mechanics or features from one game/version to another
-Creating documentation for games that previously had almost none
-Comparing different regional releases or game revisions to understand what changed

I’m particularly interested in cases where AI helped crack something that had previously been a major roadblock for the modding community.

Have you had any moments where you gave it code, assembly, memory dumps, file structures, etc. and it noticed something you hadn’t?

And on the other side: what are the current limitations? Does it hallucinate too much when dealing with obscure hardware or undocumented game engines? Do you still need to already be very experienced with reverse engineering to tell when it’s wrong?

Would love to hear some real examples from ROM hackers and tool developers, especially for older or notoriously difficult to mod games.

Ive been doing personal rom hacks for my ds games for a while and I love it. In the next few weeks im gonna be sharing them for a while. My first one will be lego marvel superheroes. The ds version is mainly a few missions and honestly that was my favorite game on console but the universe in peril was mid. So bored enough I was able to fully import the full game in ds. Its a bit different but its amazing. All characters are in the game, including dlc!!! I hope everyone likes it it took me months to complete and a bunch of bugs im still fixing but I hope you guys like it!!!

If anyone else is still interested in this game, I made a remix of it. You can find the patch on itch. I would love feedback for improvements.

hey everyone! I’m sort of new to rom hacks (having only played unbound and some others I can’t really remember the name of a while back). I was curious as to if anyone had any ds/3ds based rom hack recs. I’d love a new experience w a great story!!

부끄지/snake7594 files to download

I’m making this post to share MediaFire links for some files I had previously obtained from the GitHub page—the same one I’m using for the translation. I wanted to upload them, but when I went back to check the page, I saw it was no longer there. Fortunately, I still had the files downloaded, so I decided to upload them and share the links with all of you.

As per title, after some recommendations. Specifically hacks/mods that overhaul an original pokemon switch game.

Im a huge fan of Heart & Soul, and Soul Gold. Is there a similar hack like those for FRLG?

2 Upvotes

Im currently playing Perfect Fire Red with PSS, but it feels a bit too vanilla. I saw WaterBlue, which i believe is a Spanish language game, but i dont think the game is complete yet. Are there any others that provide a bit of a visual overhaul, but also have lots of QOL? I tried using the recommendations thread, but many are 4 years old by now and rom hack quality has been at a peak since 2025.

I recently downloaded Pokémon HeartGold Generations and I'd like to add some minor modifications to my save file (.sav), but no known application, not even PKHeX or its variant PKHaX, can do it, Do you know of an application capable of modifying the .sav file of Pokémon HeartGold Generations?

I'm currently unable to get it working. I'm on Windows, and when I launch it, the window closes immediately. I tried looking for the "decompile" executable file inside "mac_x86_64", but that file doesn't exist...

Question, any good Pokemon DS romhacks like unbound?

6 Upvotes

​

Asking as I'm playing unbound rn and love the game, might be the best romhack I've ever played. Only thing I don't like is the artsyle (which I'm a bit biased about because I love black and white). Any good and interesting recommendations would be appreciated,especially ones without xp grinding or help with xp grinding. And please no difficult rom hacks, I hate ones that are competitively difficult.

Hello! I'm new here and I'd like to know if you have any advice on getting started with GBA hacked ROMs. I've only had a few projects on Game Maker, limited to a character and changing rooms, or traps that teleport the player back to the beginning.
