How good are you with a hex editor and Unicode? If the answer is null, then forget about it.

What is the possible illegal part? Assuming he/she owns the rom and doesn't plan on distributing the altered result, then where's the harm? Imagine all the people who would be in jail right now from messing around with Doom95?

Oh, and St Disaster, sorry to say that this isn't something that can be learned in a couple of forum posts. I know people who have spent months trying to learn the general coding concepts and languages necessary for something like this, but still are not quite ready. Go to a library or bookstore and read up on the following: Compliers/decompliers, Java, C (+/-/#), Unicode, VB, XML. Write your first "hello world" program in each and get back to me. Either that or crawl the web looking for pre-made files to enhance the rom.

Re: ds rom splitting.

You can't "own" the rom, you have to own a physical copy of the game to have the rom legally, and if you don't have the real game, you can only have it on your computer 24 hours.

a) aceman's comment
b) You seem to forget I never said anyone was doing anything illegal. I just warned them not to go there.

Isn't owning the ROM owning the physical copy of the game? As in: "I have a old shoe box filled with 8-bit Nintendo Roms. Aceman, you are truly king of semantics. But as long as we are on the topic of semantics, ROM, as you most likely know, is an acronym for Read Only Memory. Atari and 8-Bit Nintendo (as well as many of the following game consoles) ran off of ROM cartridges. Many referred to these as ROMs instead of cartridges. If you are an OG tech nerd like myself, you still refer to any game media as a ROM. In fact, the term ROM refers to a tangible, 'physical' thing, rather than the media in it. Therefore, I can legally own a ROM, and thus the game on it.

With all of the emulators around these days, people have taken the term ROM to describe the game code from cartridges and discs. ROM is now incorrectly used as a quick and identifiable means of referring to the information on the ROM.

a) My comment above
b) It was a legitimate question I had asked you. If people talk about MP3's, do you have the same response?
