While preparing for this article, I started the Steam version up again (it was part of a bundle of games I purchased early this year) and was shocked by how much it had improved over the last two years. Square-Enix diligently patched the game numerous times after its disastrous initial reception, and I am happy to say that it now looks and sounds like proper Chrono Trigger.
by chronosplit. This patch updates the time selection menu seen when you warp to another time period in the Epoch to terms seen in later translation scripts. Dark Ages is now Antiquity, and Prehistoric is now Prehistory. No text has been updated so anyone making their own hack may use this without fear, just the image. This is the same one used in the Bugfix and Uncensoring Patch.
Chrono Trigger Ds Rom Patched Up
The party return to antiquity and defeat Dalton. King Zeal nears the fruition of his plan, but Melchior and Belthasar enter the time period to dissuade him. King Zeal leaves the Sun Stone, the trigger for the revival of Zeal, with a follower and walks to the North Cape. He reveals that Lavos survived defeat in Chrono Trigger and clung to life in the Darkness Beyond Time. He used the Frozen Flame to revive King Zeal, manipulating him to take revenge on the heroes. He is now merging with Schala, as he has done with all the other "Arbiters" who have used the Frozen Flame throughout history. Lavos calls King Zeal, intending to merge with him as well and evolve to become the Dream Devourer (as seen in Chrono Trigger DS). The party convince Zeal's followers not to activate the Sun Stone, and pursue Zeal to the Darkness Beyond Time. King Zeal confronts them once more, revealing his will is stronger than that of Lavos; he'll merge, but become the dominant personality within the Dream Devourer and create a new Zeal using its vast power. The party defeat him and return to Chronopolis. They notice the planet's Gates are closing again, and depart to their homes, promising to stay in touch. Belthasar meanwhile reveals he has the Frozen Flame, which activates and informs him that Lavos is still alive and will become the Time Devourer, the enemy of Chrono Cross. It challenges Belthasar to a grand game, and he begins drawing up plans for Project Kid. The game closes with King Zeal, shown to be alive and imprisoned by Magus in 11,995 B.C., who forces him to teach advanced temporal magic.[2]
You can use UniPatcher to patch ROMs on an Android smarpthone or tablet. In addition to IPS patches, it also supports applying xDelta and BPS patches. It works the same way as Lunar IPS on Windows - just choose the IPS patch then choose the ROM, then poof it's patched. The only tricky part is that prior to using UniPatcher, the English patch and the ROM both must be extracted from their zip files. Unlike Windows, Android can't extract zip files by default. You'll need something like Astro File Manager to do that. Here are directions for unzipping files with Astro.
Many ROM hacks and translations require the header of the ROM to be removed before applying the patch. They normally state this in the directions, but not always. If a ROM you patched isn't working, try removing the header on a fresh unpatched ROM and try patching again.
Strategy #2: Rule out headerless - Using the same ROMs from Archive.org (fresh ROMs you haven't patched yet), remove the header from every ROM and then patch each ROM. Test every ROM to see if that works.
So you start up your patched game in your favorite SNES emulator and the first thing it gives you is a "bad checksum" error on the bottom of the screen (shown below). Don't worry! This is supposed to happen. It just means the English patch or modification/hack patch increased the size of the ROM, hence the checksum is different. As long as the game starts up normally after this message then everything is fine and nothing is broken or corrupt.
How do you find out which ROM hacks wouldn't work? That's easy - use a cycle accurate emulator such as Higan. Don't use ZSNES or Snes9X, as they are not cycle-accurate. If you do find that a certain ROM hack or fan translation doesn't work (and you're absolutely sure it's patched correctly), there might be a fix. With the rise of popularity with repo carts, people have released fixes for certain popular fan translations that used emulator specific hacks. I think RomHacking.net has them.
You don't need to do anything special to load patched ROMs onto the RetroN 5. You load patched ROMs the same exact way you load regular ROMs. Don't know how to load ROMs onto it? Check out these videos to learn how. 2ff7e9595c
