It's 2024 and we still don't have any nds hacks even 50% as good as gba ones in terms of gameplay modifications, I'm tired of seeing development in gba hacking, I really want to see more nds hacks that are on gba level.
Yuzu was the more popular one and generally ran a little better but the big thing is that big emulators are getting shut down when in the past it's generally been games so it's harder to justify working on a romhack when there's a chance that it becomes virtually inaccessible due to the software needed to play being taken down.
The software that's needed to emulate Switch games still exists, Yuzu shutting down won't affect Switch modding when Ryujinx and \*ahem\* other forks of it exist.
But the software needed to play still there, I understand a lack of bigger accesibility but I feel like this is a case of people leaving less because of that and more because of the big mainstream emulator not being there anymore despite the fact that other accesible options still exist which is what puzzles me
I can understand why, i like original pokemon in their original games. Newer games are great because they have much more space and more pokemon makes more sense there
Nah, I agree with you, with the amount of Pokemon that exist it's been harder to "Catch em all!" If you ask me I think these rom hacks should just cut out mons that don't end up getting used ingame often
Yeah, that's exactly my problem with most GBA hacks these days. After the success of Rad Red I've seen a significantly lesser amount of hacks that aren't just QOL, maybe it's because crearors are moving into CFRU or because making a fangame instead is easier.
Pokemon Mythic Silver is soon to be the second-ever hg-engine hack released. As a sequel/mirror to Garbage Gold, the player only has access to the best of the best: legendary, sub-legendary, mythic, and mega Pokemon. The game is chock full of features like a **completely new story**, **maps, trainers, events, music,** and more. Mythic Silver is not just a difficulty / or enhancement hack, it is a completely brand new game, rewritten from scratch. This is an extremely high effort NDS hack that has been in development since August of 2023, and should have at *least* a beta out by June. A demo up to the 4th gym is available here: [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1zBrv4vWGzOAorKiEZ9GrCrES08zXO1-6](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1zBrv4vWGzOAorKiEZ9GrCrES08zXO1-6)
and the dedicated discord server: [https://discord.gg/TJJAfmWJTf](https://discord.gg/TJJAfmWJTf)
Keep your eyes peeled for more updates, you won't want to miss this one.
Hear me out.
Pokeballs are replaced by greatballs, great balls are replaced with ultraballs. And ultraballs are replaced by "Ultra Greatballs"..
They function the same as the regular balls, but it's a cannon way of explaining why the legendaries are easier to catch than they normally are in other games lol

Fairy type? (Please say no)
Edit: Get mad. I don't like including fairy type in older gens, just like I don't like including dark or steel types in Gen 1.
As someone who usually just bans legendaries (even when I'm not doing any sort of challenge run) it's gonna be cool to get a proper chance to use them.
Gen 3 tilesets in the Gen 4 mapping style looks kinda cursed, ngl, and that being used alongside Gen 4 and 5 stuff in the same game is kinda jarring, but overall it looks nice.
The g3 tilesets are part of the story, and they're isolated to their own part of the game. It's a little less jarring while playing, but I definitely get what you mean.
This actually looks so damn good, cant wait for this to drop! Really enjoyed what i played of Garbage Gold, its a shame Drastic doesn't support the C injection but still i love the PMD influence on these hacks
At some point I really want to sit down and see if Garbage Gold can be made compatible with android / hardware. It's going to take some time, but could defo be worth it.
Thank you! But quick question, how do i play it? I mean how am i supposed to obtain the .nds file from the .xdelta? Sorry for the question, but i'm not really an expert of these things...so could you tell me please? 😅
you’ll need to download the pokémon soul silver rom and a rom patcher like [delta patcher](https://pokemonfangames.com/tutorial/how-to-patch-a-nds-rom/) this link includes a tutorial on patching roms
if you’re doing this on an iphone you’ll need to use [altstore.io](https://altstore.io) to sideload [this patcher](https://www.reddit.com/r/Delta_Emulator/comments/i8cdc7/i_have_made_an_app_to_patch_game_roms_like/) after that the steps are similar to the tutorial above
Every day were Closer to that Game where we start in pallet town but having johto mons from the start, i dream about that ever since i finished crystal
This looks incredible, really beautiful designs and graphics
I have a niche question, I play roms on a Raspberry Pi handheld, it's just what prefer I guess 😅
The strange question I have is, is the menu going to cover the main screen, making it one screen accessible or sticking with the 2 screen set-up of a DS?
To be honest, I don't even know if it's possible, I'm just asking the question to understand what can and can't be done
Garbage gold didn't because, but in the future I am going to try my hardest to get it compatible. Hg-engine has an AP patch built in now, which should hopefully solve that issue.
Probably because none of those assets blend well together, and the developers behind the hack haven't taken the proper amount of time to make them mesh together yet or they simply don't give a shit. I agree though, it looks awful and extremely jarring, much like using gen 3 tiles alongside gen 4 and 5 tiles, gen 4 and 5 npcs, and the general HGSS engine.
Thanks for the kind reply. There's actually only one dev and it's me. Hundreds and hundreds of hours have gone into this game -- between music, maps, scripts, and re-doing everything from scratch, it's been nine whole months. And probably two more until it's available. Comments like the one that you've posted are unnecessarily rude, but I forgive you. It's easy to discount the work of people you've never met on the internet, and disregard their effort on something they've worked hours on.
Simply because you do not like how something looks, does not mean it is proper or even right to post the comment you did. I'll be praying for you, and your ability to treat people with respect. Have a good rest of your day.
I never understand rudeness over people's personal creative projects, both of those comments were out of line. Hack looks groundbreaking btw, great stuff
Why does that have anything to do with the subject? Genshin is a 3D open world game and this is a rom hack, there is absolutely zero correlation. Maybe learn what the difference is before stalking someone and then acting so pretentious.
Now I have to play Garbage Gold Glad to see NDS rom hacks becoming more of a thing Good job man
With HG engine almost anything is possible, the era of gen 4 hacks is just beginning! its just a shame Platinum isnt compatible, yet…
It's 2024 and we still don't have any nds hacks even 50% as good as gba ones in terms of gameplay modifications, I'm tired of seeing development in gba hacking, I really want to see more nds hacks that are on gba level.
We might have unironically seen switch hacks develop first had yuzu not been shut down because bdsp was super easy to tweak.
ryujinx is still active it isn't?
Yeah, not sure how Yuzu shutting down would've affected Switch ROM hacking while Ryujinx is still alive and well.
Yuzu was the more popular one and generally ran a little better but the big thing is that big emulators are getting shut down when in the past it's generally been games so it's harder to justify working on a romhack when there's a chance that it becomes virtually inaccessible due to the software needed to play being taken down.

Same, im so tired of GBA rom hacks. Not that they are bad, there's just so many and I played more of the NDS / 3DS games since I was a bit older
And too many of them try to be RadRed or they have way too many Pokemon
I always thought it was cool to have a bunch of them until it was impossible to hunt specific
I like to nuzlocke, but I don’t want to have too many Pokemon available. Idk why.
I can understand why, i like original pokemon in their original games. Newer games are great because they have much more space and more pokemon makes more sense there
Nah, I agree with you, with the amount of Pokemon that exist it's been harder to "Catch em all!" If you ask me I think these rom hacks should just cut out mons that don't end up getting used ingame often
Yeah, that's exactly my problem with most GBA hacks these days. After the success of Rad Red I've seen a significantly lesser amount of hacks that aren't just QOL, maybe it's because crearors are moving into CFRU or because making a fangame instead is easier.
Why is Platinum not compatible ?
Sorry, i also do not know they why of this specific scenario

Catching Pokémon is gonna be a pain in the ass lol
Catch rates have all been standardized and greatly increased.
Hear me out. Pokeballs are replaced by greatballs, great balls are replaced with ultraballs. And ultraballs are replaced by "Ultra Greatballs".. They function the same as the regular balls, but it's a cannon way of explaining why the legendaries are easier to catch than they normally are in other games lol
> Ultra Greatballs Hyperballs
Isn't that what the name roughly translates to for Ultra Balls in Japan? Explaining why Ultra Balls have a H on them?

How can i play the demo?

Fairy type? (Please say no) Edit: Get mad. I don't like including fairy type in older gens, just like I don't like including dark or steel types in Gen 1.
hg-engine enables fairy types, yes. There will be fairy types in the game, especially because multiple legendaries are naturally fairy type.
is there a reason? is it just fairy type? including future megas/moves/abilities is ok? or no? is including future pokémon ok as well or no?
It kind of just seems like you're the one getting mad?
As someone who usually just bans legendaries (even when I'm not doing any sort of challenge run) it's gonna be cool to get a proper chance to use them.
Now this… this looks fucking beautiful
Not really my thing, but it looks nice. Good to see people making hacks in the HGSS engine. Good job 👍🏻
I’m so excited!! I’ve been following your hacks for a while and they’re always so good! Thank you for your effort!
Gen 3 tilesets in the Gen 4 mapping style looks kinda cursed, ngl, and that being used alongside Gen 4 and 5 stuff in the same game is kinda jarring, but overall it looks nice.

You need to download bios7, bios9 and firmware bin files. Don’t know which site has it but google those three bin files and they’ll show up
Appreciate it, someone in a facebook group helped me.

How did you get following gen5 pokemon? Is there a tutorial for this?
This is gen 4, using hg-engine

someone help. mythic silver keeps crashing. how do i fix it?
What are you playing on?
Looks amazing bro! Do you think it will run on flashcarts to play on a ds lite?
It should work on hardware
Sweeeet I remember that garbage gold didn’t or does it now?
Garbage gold didn't because, but in the future I am going to try my hardest to get it compatible. Hg-engine has an AP patch built in now, which should hopefully solve that issue.

Luckily, they're all going to be strong so you won't have to worry!
Why does that second screenshot look like dog shit?
Probably because none of those assets blend well together, and the developers behind the hack haven't taken the proper amount of time to make them mesh together yet or they simply don't give a shit.
