Posted on 05-21-06 10:22 AM, in tried patching this SMBDX IPS file - problems Link
Hi all, I've read and re-read through the tutorials on how to patch IPS files, but I'm stuck with trying to patch the IPS from this site here: http://www.freewebs.com/peter_ac/smbdx.html

I've made sure it's the same filename [Super_Mario_World_(U).smc & Super_Mario_World_(U).ips], so that's not the problem either. Could it

I've tried using both JIPS and IPSWin - but one crashes half way through, while the other gives me an error message.

I've also tried using SNESTools too, but that one just tells me it's 'patching...' but I've waited for like 15-30 mins or so and it hasn't done anything!

Could it just be a corrupt .ips file do you think? I know it says on there it's still a WIP, but he has still given us the IPS file to try it out.


Just wanting you to know, I am extremely looking forward to playing this game!!

thanks alot for the link ghettoyouth!

although lol, er oops... I kinda just realised that the so-called 'zip file' actually brought me to a 'page not found' site [ie. here: ][urlhttp://www.freewebs.com/notfound.htm][/url]



ok, so my NEXT problem I've been having is after I patch a .smc file, when I get to go on it, it either stops working altogether [even when I make a copy of the file, none of them (the smc's) with the same name works anymore - even when I move the .ips file somewhere else, it still doesn't work], OR it gives me a blank screen with "chksum: failed" on it - and this is all using Luna IPS.

I've tried running a search through your forums for any topics related to "chksum: failed", but the only one it found was in the newbe forum, but that was deleted.

sorry about all this

how DO I edit my reply? I can't seem to find the edit button anywhere

I had no idea it was a ROM site - all I knew was that it told me how to patch an IPS file ;



I've actually got it working now thankyou all! the annoying thing now tho, is my ZSNES keeps crashing when I try to get the controller to work [for me - ie. nothing works the first time - this is just the normal amount of luck I get with these things - and it's really not much!!]

Whenever I go to config-->Input #1-->Keyb/Joystick-->Set keys, ZSNES keeps on crashing for some reason! Anyone have any ideas on this?

*edit* the link issue is sorted now.

I'd really like help with this controller problem! I've got an Executioner gamepad [as in this pic: http://images.techtree.com/ttimages/story/XFX-Executioner-gamepad.jpg ], but as I said in my last post...

"my ZSNES keeps crashing when I try to get the controller to work. Whenever I go to config-->Input #1-->Keyb/Joystick-->Set keys, ZSNES keeps on crashing for some reason! Anyone have any ideas on this?"

As for the Gamepad glitch thing...I've never used a Gamepad, so you're on your own, there. (And by that, I mean that I can't help you.)


OOOOOH, I get you now! Ok then, I've edited my 1st post -and deleting the 2nd image too

so anymore ideas about my controller problem?

*edit*

AAH, I found out that it was my controller that was doing it! I've now had to use this horrible rubbishy old one to play the games, ugh!

errm... I know this sounds like a really strange thing that happened [because it's my typical computer]; now I remember why I didn't use my old controller before...

once I plugged it in my computer, erm, crashed/froze - and as my computer does [this is old news for me, because it always used to do it when something seriously crashes], I have serious trouble trying to get the monitor working again, and to make it so it doesn't crash every 10 or so seconds after I try to re-boot it.
