I mean no disrespect by all means, but I honestly believe people should rethink their standards a little bit before casting a stone on a piece of history that people in the future may want but won't have the chance to get.
Retro game challenge ds undub patch Patch#
For all we know someone could take this patch and add to it, improve upon it, maybe overhaul it. I literally only found it in one place on the internet, I am the type that believes that if one person wants it then it must be worth keeping preserved in time because out of the entire population (still growing), I am very sure others out there would want this type of patch as well, regardless of the effort taken at hand. I already looked on this forum for a related patch because as I stated in my patch post, a user requested that I add this undubbed version of the game to the cheat databases, obviously I didn't have it at the time, and based on the results of the internet, neither did this forum nor any other known or fan based forum. If it is a case of complex work (has been seen, usually when a ROM uses something other than SDAT or something in addition to SDAT but there are cases of SDAT files themselves being radically tweaked, or sometimes just when people only want a partial undub) then by all means figure out what the changes with regards to file headers or ROM binaries are and replicate those in a patch, telling people to get the relevant versions of the ROM and run this batch file or grab these files, apply these patches/tweaks to said file and rebuild.Ĭlick to expand.The way I see it, we have lost a lot of history over time because of restrictions like this, while I agree that the level of effort varies on how stuff like this is made (huge difference between an attempt with effort and a complete lazy attempt), I don't agree with disallowing the ability to post content like this for the simple fact that not many places on the internet may have something of the sorts for a title like this.
This goes especially in the cases where "open usually Japanese ROM, fish out SDAT, overwrite usually NA/EU ROM's SDAT with said first SDAT, rebuild if necessary" is the entire procedure but still goes even for those where more complex work needs to be done. This is as wholesale including a whole audio rip of the game is pretty hard to justify. Though most of these would be actual dubs or user voice acting.
As a general rule we don't allow undub patches that are eitherĪ) Not some kind of cheat/patch to force load an existing other language dub that is already present in the ROM.ī) Not completely end user work.
