Since manual patching is permanent it's best to keep a backup of your ROM just in case. With manual patching, the IPS patch is permanently applied onto the ROM. You need to manually patch ROMs.ДЄbout Manual Patching & Patching Utility Download Check out this page: Softpatching ROMs with RetroArch - this tells you which cores support auto-patching (or rather, 'softpatching').ДЄndroid/Mac/iOS users: Auto patching is not available.

But if you download the patch from my site, then look under the patch's download link for a note, it'll tell you the exact patch you need to use.ДЄ note with RetroArch: Most of the cores support auto-patching.

Firstly, if the directions that came with the patch state that an unheadered ROM is required, that's a separate process that needs to be done first: how to remove the header from a ROM.

Here's an example:ДЄnd here are some step by step directions: And that's it :) RetroArch, Snes9x, VBA (Visual Boy Advance), and ZSNES will automatically patch them together when you load up the ROM. They both must be unzipped and in the same folder. My video doesn't cover removing a ROM header, which is sometimes required.ДЄuto Patching with RetroArch, Snes9x, and VBAДЄll you need to do is make sure the game and its English patch have the same file name (don't change their file extensions).

I've created a video tutorial with (most of) the directions posted on this page: In any case, to have these experiences you need to apply an IPS patch to a video game ROM. ROM hacks such as hacks that increase the game's difficulty, rearrange all the stages to create an entirely new game, or replace the dialogue with perverted humor. One of the great things about getting into video game emulation is that (1) you can play games in English that were never officially released in English, and (2) play your favorites games in a whole new way with ROM hacks.
