So, if you configure a new game on, let's say, folder "SMW", the tool should show all SFC files with this level of nesting "SMW/hack name/file name.sfc" that are already there.
I recently stumbled upon this incredible new repository tool, and I have to say, it's a complete game-changer for anyone who enjoys ROM hacking. As someone who’s been deep into modifying ROMs for a while, I can’t emphasize enough how much time and frustration this tool saves!
What sets this tool apart is its seamless integration of multiple processes into one easy-to-use package. Here’s what I love about it:
1. Effortless ROM Hack Discovery: The repository tool makes finding ROM hacks a breeze. It has a well-organized interface and tons of available hacks ready to download, so you don’t have to scour the internet or worry about whether you're getting the right version.
2. Automatic Unzipping: No more dealing with the hassle of unzipping files manually! The tool handles everything, making it simple to get your files in order without any extra effort.
3. Instant Patch Application: This feature is a huge time-saver. Once you've chosen your ROM hack, the tool automatically applies the patch to the base ROM. It's so quick and smooth, you can get right to playing or testing the hack without any additional steps.
4. User-Friendly Interface: Even for beginners, the interface is intuitive and easy to navigate. You don’t need to be a ROM hacking expert to use it effectively. Everything is laid out clearly, and the process feels almost automated.
5. Save Time, Avoid Errors: I can't tell you how many times I’ve run into issues trying to locate the downloaded file, unzip it, and then locate the right base rom. This tool eliminates those headaches, ensuring everything is applied properly and consistently every time.
Overall, this tool is an absolute must-have for ROM hacking enthusiasts, whether you're a newbie or a seasoned pro. It’s fast, reliable, and makes the whole patching process effortless. Highly recommended!
Some nice feature additions that work as advertised, accepted.
found a plaster solution. for others who want a short-term workaround and don't mind downloading more software, you can use this piece to circumvent the problem. just put the core dll filename in the json file included and "always open" in windows with this executable.
One day I'll update the submission here on SMWCentral, but I want to make sure to include some more new features before bothering the moderator.
However, in case something goes wrong, an error message should appear below the "download" button. Does this happen with every hack you try to download, or just one?
When I press on download it creates the folder with the .bps file in it. But it doesn't patch it for some reason so It doesn't show up in the "hacks" section
EDIT: It works now. Seems like it was a problem with my SMW ROM.
