Hey!
I'm sorry, I'm new here, so i don't know if there's already a topic about this, and if I have to place it here, but here is my question:
I'm playin castlevania Portrait of ruin, and I got here a patch for the freezing thing, http://www.kenghot.com/forum/uploads...or-Patcher.zip but how does it work ??? I know I have to download it, but I don't know what to do after downloading it ::) And maybe there is a better patch ??? Please help me! ;D

Hrm, not sure if there is a better patch, but...Once you download it-check the patch contents-ethier an ips or another file extension.Google "xxx patcher" (xxx=your files extentsion).The program will then patch the patch and the game together-however word of caution.When I used an english patch for a certain game-the dsp patcher program (or a few other's for that matter) would freeze if you click or do anything.Best to do-once the process starts-no matter what-wait until the program finishes before doing anything-even minimising thw window or a mouse movement may impede the patching process.Many times it didn't finish correctly-the patch I used took 1 mimute-before I stopped doing stuff during the process I'd have a poor patch and that wouldn't run.See how you go-ask if I've confused you XD

Ok-that's easy.Drag the rom file on top-it should do almost all the rest.It may ask you to press the "any key".So...press any-if otherwise post back

Replying to #7

Hrm, ok, try placing the file next to the program and then double clicking on it-it may ask you to aim it where the rom is-point it if you can.Otherwise your stuck like I am-same problem with a n64 game i was trying to patch :(
