This very simple even for noobs,

First the tools that are needed:

Ndstool http://darkfader.net/ds/files/ndstool.exe
Hex editor http://www.bpsoft.com/downloads/hw32v31.exe
Metroid Prime Hunters (i cant give the link due to the forums rules)
supercard patch software version 2.55c http://eng.supercard.cn/download/setupsdV255Cen.rar

First make a folder called romhacking on you perfered drive I used my c:\
put Mph in there and rename it to mph.nds and then ndstool too , then install hex workshop,

then go to start>run> then paste this code here in to run: c:\romhacking\ndstool.exe -x mph.nds -9 arm9.bin -7 arm7.bin -y7 y7.bin -y9 y9.bin -d data -y overlay -t banner.bin -h header.bin. Then access your C:\ then go to romhacking there should be more files in there, go to data>frontend then right click metroidhunters_text_en.bin and hex edit in hex workshop, you can start you ds and open the mph's rom to assist you in  editing by find the words to replace, press ctrl+f type in the word or the case its in (say adventure mode)and find it and write over it, you cant type words or sentence's that have more charchters than the original sentence or word,  I have a picture of the main menu text hacked to change the name of the modes, then after you've down editing the text open start>run then paste this in:  c:\romhacking\ndstool.exe -c mph.nds -9 arm9.bin -7 arm7.bin -y7 y7.bin -y9 y9.bin -d data -y overlay -t banner.bin -h header.bin . That will pack the rom up then patch it in to a dsq and a sav which you can replace with your other save with the supercard 2.55c patching software, put them on you sd card any where load up your supercard and test out your text hack.

here's a pic of what i did:

Basic information for those trying to get started hacking DS roms.

[VoX]

exactly!

Hi, when i want to recompile all the files to the *.nds format, they don't. Instead, they write over any changes I made to them. Maybe the second code you gave isn't corrent (:\romhacking\ndstool.exe -x mph.nds -9 arm9.bin -7 arm7.bin -y7 y7.bin -y9 y9.bin -d data -y overlay -t banner.bin -h header.bin)

This would be way harder probably but is it possible to hack to play as another hunter in story mode or even lower or heighten values for a hard mode?

For that kind of stuff you might want to check out Action Replay DS cheat hardware.

Yeah change "-x" to "-c" and "mph.nds" to "anythingyouwant.nds".

[VoX]

yes sorry about that i'll change it

How would you go about hacking a save file? Like I want to try and hack my saved game in Diamond and Pearl, how would I go about doing it?

And I'm attempting to hack the main game but I see a bunch of ".narc" files.

[Merkage]

Umm... If you know how to do that.
Would you know how to hack the wi-fi wins and losses?
Or wi-fi points?

[VoX]

no because to edit you wifi wins then you would have to hack the mph server because they keep all that stuff on the server not in the game
