Patching a rom

[Bapes]

A question that most people ask when they get a japanese rom but can't understnad it.
The game I shall be using for this is Seiken Denetsu 3. I found my IPS patch thru google. If your going to have a rom handy and a IPS patch handy and your emulator, make a new RAR/ZIP folder titled the game name. After you put your rom and IPS patch in your folder, rename the IPS patch to the rom's name. (If its ff4.smc, name the IPS patch ff4.ips). Then load it with your emulator. Feel free to ask questions.

Pictures coming soon.

Just make sure that you don't include links to these ROMS.

Actually, I'm also certain it's legal to "link to" roms, it is only illegal to have the files in your possession.

I was wrong, actually.
