Error with Platinum Patch
Closed this issue · 5 comments
While the Heartgold patches worked perfectly I seem to have stumbled into a problem when trying to patch a pokémon platinum clean ROM: using this patcher it returns a checksum error: "Error occurred while patching
Details: target window checksum mismatch (code -17712)".
I tried with past patches and asked some friends to try as well and we seem to all stumble in this same error.
Which patch file did you try exactly? And could you post the MD5 hash of the Platinum ROM you have?
I tried with v.1.3.Platinum.3541, v.1.1 and v.1.0 and they all returned the same error.
Here's the MD5 Hash: D66AD7A2A0068B5D46E0781CA4953AE9
Argh, sorry to be late getting back to you on this!!
So that MD5 happens to be the same as my personal Platinum rip, but not the same as the one I used to make most of these patches, which was the 3541 Xenophobia rip with the hash f8905424f7d8aea299c51ec7580b33d8. If you can track down that copy, that will work. At the same time, would you want to try out the Following + Renegade Platinum patch along with my mod? You'd have a compatible ROM for that too then.
No worries! I managed to find a 3541 Xenophobia rip and now it patched and works perfectly, thank you very much! I'll probably try them out as well, just to get a really original Platinum experience ahah!
Glad to hear it. Have fun!!
