Zelda 25 anniversary

[Amuro-san]

I want to modify it by adding the translated roms of Zelda, Zelda II and Ocarina.
Because the only translated game is Majoras Mask, does anyone know what the file system is like?

In dolphin emulator you can see at the internal files and see what is there, maybe the roms are compressed in lzh8 format (there are decompressors for that).

I saw it and got it, the problem now is with Zelda I and II on the NES which are in opening.bnr

 

[Amuro-san]

Here's what I'm talking about, the rom comes in opening.bnr
This even opens up a huge range of ROM injections into the NGC and Wii

 

[CheeseBurgerwithLove]

That's not the rom, opening.bnr is the game's animation banner (when you click on a channel in the Wii menu it shows an animation with background music, that's the opening.bnr). The rom must be somewhere else.

I don't have the iso of the game but if you could take a screenshot of the game files folder it might help you find out where the rom is located.

here is the schematic, the roms are in tgc, when I extract it to gcn, and open it, it is in brn format

You have to convert those tgc files to gcm with a program called tgctogcm.exe. Then open the gcm with gctool and you should see the roms in their normal format.

Tienes que convertir esos tgc archivos a gcm con un programa llamado tgctogcm.exe. Luego abra el gcm con gctool y debería ver las roms en su formato normal.

I still believe that the rom is inside BRN

 

[CheeseBurgerwithLove]

The roms are compressed in tgc format but it must be converted to gcm so that the complete rom of the game can be extracted.
I've already explained to you what to do, if you doubt what I am telling you so I have nothing more to say.

Good luck!

I'm not doubting it, what I'm saying is that the rom is inside BNR

the only thing inside gcm is the BNR file, outside of it there is nothing else, what you would need is a program that opens or decrypts the BNR file

When I open the GCM file in Dolphin, I can start the game, which shows me that the blessed rom is inside BNR

Extraction problem solved, the only program that could extract is Gamecube File Tools, inside there are the files: apploader, bi2, boot, fst, main.dol

Dude I told you that bnr is part of the console file system, I don't understand why you insist on that. The roms are the TGC files which you have to use the tgctogcm program to convert them to that format so you can extract the entire roms.
The files apploader, boot, main.dol, etc are files belonging to the console system, you will not find anything interesting there.

It turns out that the program doesn't recognize anything other than opening.bnr, the program I used was the one I read on Github and it recognizes other files within GCM

 

[Amuro-san]

question answered, it turns out that the roms are hidden in the BNR, and apparently the same emulator was used in Animal Crosing and uses the same method, in which it is hidden in the banner, I'm going to try the Animal Crossing tool, but my idea was to let Zelda Collections 100% Spanish

The ROM files are just embedded in the main DOL for those NES emulators, you might think they're in the BNR but they aren't since those lie at a specific spot and are a specific size.

What tool can I use to decode the DOL and then replace the ROM?
I was thinking about BNR because the extractor only showed the BNR and when I start in dolphin, dolphin starts the rom perfectly

 

[emu_kidid]

You'd need to use a hex editor to find the NES ROM that's embedded. Someone has likely already posted this info
