What exactly has been changed and done in the patch?
Will WiFi work?
Is that a permanent fix now..?

I predict a translation will be started,
stupid people will constantly post crap that annoys the translator to the point of stopping the translation before its done.

Perhaps someone will change the translator's diapers for them so they won't waste time on forums instead of translating.

Not that we need it, since it's coming out in English someday. Most likely.

I have to wait for the U.S one. Lucky you people. I just speak English, Arabic, and French. Oh god. When will it be April 2010?

Sadly still black screen on me after 2 hours of gameplay...
What exactly was done in the patch?

 

[Porro88]

Anyone that has a working game, with the english translation, for DSone?

Stop asking for a freakin' translation! Either learn Japanese or go check on everyone that's already translating it.

Also, you're requesting a rom AND you double posted.

Ontopic: The game works fine (not a single crash) on my SCDSOnei with a Class 2 8GB microSD WITHOUT the patch, so I wonder what makes the crashes occur on your SCs. Also, I've played for a few hours already.

 

[DJ91990]

Damn, 2 Hours till crash!? That's better off then I was doing before this came out, I had 45 Minutes till it crashed.
I am going to try this one now, and then apply the clean Eng Patch. (If that will work)
If it still crashes, then I hope they get to the ROOT of the problem and soon. Battle Frontier matches can take HOURS to complete.

I honestly hope this PERMINANTLY FIXES THE PROBLEM, all these crashes are tying my patience, keeping me up at night, and holding me back on completeing the game 7 times. (Not to mention killing the battery life of my DSi with the constant resets!)

 

[44tim44]

I really hope someone can figure out why the game keeps freezing all the time D':
Just like DJ91990 said: This is really trying mi patience... It's almost impossible to do the Bug-catching contest with these constant crashes D:

Someone, PLEASE, find a way around this anti-piracy thing!

 

[tajio]

AH! I am so tempted in getting this game but ... I want to understand it! I've only played 2 pokemon games in Japanese before but that was when I was really impatient ... I think I'll just wait till the english version comes out and If I did start playing the game I would have no time to study for my exams

so that's good.

 

[nightshizumu]

The Rudolph patch is definitely helping more than the Chinese patch for the time freeze DJ91990 mentioned on CycloDS. With the Chinese patch I was getting the 45-minute freeze, and the 10-minute freeze without any patches. Still yet to find out if this still freezes after a couple hours as other people mentioned. XD Thank you!

 

[Majin Vegeta]

It's also similar for me (CycloDS Evolution).

Without patch: Crash every ~15min
arm7 patch: "data couldn't be read" at boot
chinese patch: also "data couldn't be read" at boot
Rudolph's patch: no crashes so far after 3,5h

wait...there's an English patch ALREADY!?!?

 

[SplashTOMATO]

Wow you went 3.5 hours straight with Rudolph patch, Majin Vegeta? I've only been playing for an hour or so at a time before I have to do something else so I haven't tested the limits yet, but that's good to hear. XD

Might want to read through the pages (and check the heart gold thread too)... someone made a patch that translates the basic pokemon/item names, moves etc, basically everything that's the same in all of the DS generation games.

 

[dudemanawesome]

Open questions:
Does HG have longer anti-freeze rates than SS?

What's a basic timeframe for a patched rom to be available for download? (Laziest friends in the world.)

Thanks for any help.

 

[Twiffles]

No idea, not that anything can be certain anyway with the multiple patches and whatnot.

A week at most, I would think. Depends if more and more patches keep coming up that get better and better.
