Hi, all! I'm a bit new here, so I hope I'm not committing any unspeakable acts by re-posting this here. I tried asking about this in the Tear Ring Saga section but wasn't getting any help, so I figured I'd ask in a section like this that seemed more appropriate/active.
I'm having problems patching TRS, and I think it may have to do with the ripping process. According to the readme linked here, I'm to
I bought a Japanese copy of the game, but, no matter what I use to rip the game, I get a file that is about 580 MB or smaller. I've tried ImgBurn—which is what I normally use for PS1 games—and CD Clone, and I've tried ripping the game to various formats (.bin, .iso, etc.). The game itself runs fine on my PSP and on ePSXe, but whenever I patch it, it either remains in Japanese (on PSP) or crashes the emulator (ePSXe). Any idea what may be wrong? The people at the RH.net forums said that I might have a different version of the game. Is this the problem?
Tl;dr: When I rip TRS, it's too small a file (~580 MB) to patch according to the readme for the newest patch. Would anyone mind diagnosing why the file ends up being too small and/or offering a solution so I can play the game? Thanks in advance.
