Q: I did everything right but when I boot up the file in my emulator, I get an error. Rename the file in your browser and see if it appears in your emulator. What’s up with this?Ī: Sounds like you did everything right but left off the ‘.z64’ extension when naming the output file. Q: I got a File Patched Successfully message and I see it in my folder, but when I navigate to it in my emulator, the file isn’t there.
If you simply rename the extension, you’re going to get an error when patching and it won’t boot properly either. z64, will this process still work?Ī: No, a. You should be able to boot it up like normal. Do I need to patch it?Ī: No, you downloaded a pre-patched rom. Q: I downloaded a romhack but it’s already in. bps file instead, read my other tutorial for that process. Above, I mentioned using WinRAR or PeaZip. How comes?Ī: You need to extract the contents of this file. If, however, you didn’t get a success screen at the end, I’ve got an FAQ for you below that will hopefully help you resolve any problems. At the end of all that, we should be able to click and a window should pop up telling us that our new file was patched successfully! Congratulations, you’re ready to play! If you’d like, tweet at and let me know what romhack you’re playing! 😀
