ROM Hack AP-patch preservation

[RocketRobz]

Hello!

Since AP-patches may be disappearing due to built-in patching by flashcard firmwares, and/or dead links, I've decided to create this thread for AP-patches.

TWiLight Menu++ contains AP-patches for every game with AP measures, in the form of .ips files, and are applied on-the-fly by nds-bootstrap.
Alternatively, you can use DS-Scene ROM Tool to AP-patch your game.

Not recommended, but you can also check out this link.

The link above contains any AP-patch me and some others have found, including @retrogamefan's OpenPatch app, (howto included, written by me).

Posting so I try to remember to look at my old HDD later to see if I have some of those hanging around.

Just as a heads-up, it seems not all of these patches are made to work on clean dumps. I dumped my Black 2 cartridge for personal use and tried to apply these patches since my flashcart's AP handling isn't the best, but neither of the XDelta patches worked.

Every time I try to patch pokemon heartgold, I keep getting an "XD3_INVALID_INPUT" error. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, or if the ROM is no good, and OpenPatch gives some weird Japanese text i can't read XD

EDIT: I had a bad file, I grabbed a different one and then it worked.

Is it possible to make an AP patch by analysing game arm9 /7 code? (Is it worth it, cause pretty sure it's possible)

Well of course, that's the only way.

yes, it can save but you still need mario kart as a donor rom.

I beg pardon for my ignorance , but what's a donor rom ?

It makes most SDK3-4 games not able to save, be able to save.

Basically, for roms that don't work, it injects parts of the rom into another that is known to work.

all pokemon games up to black are working, you need a donor rom for pokemon D/P/P and HG/SS and a donor cart with the same chip type for pokemon B/W.
