Bugfix only patches for some rom hacks

 This is where I keep the patches which I only fixed some glitches/without adding too much new stuff.

Ruby Destiny Life Of Guardians

Creator: destinedjagold

This patch was mainly done by jiangzhengwenjzw, I only helped with taking out some minor glitches and testing. So this one is mostly his work. Also, thctbm had tested this one thoroughly, too. This patch should be pretty stable by now. The following things are changed:

The DAN cutscene at the beginning was taken out because it's not fully compatiable with many emulators and the real consoles.
The bad egg glitches should be taken out too, which makes it impossible to use the save file from the older versions though.
Pressing A constantly before being warpped to new places no longer cause any glitches.
All towns can be accessed with Fly, including the ones in Gento.
Most of the text errors were taken out, along with some palette errors.
Ruby Destiny is now a Key item, the amount of its shards can be checked by pressing USE.
Some unfinished OW sprites are fixed. The icons on the region map were changed too.

In the Ralts catching event, Ralts will always be caught instead of taken out now.

Ruby Destiny Rescue Rangers(9/7/2021 version):

Creator: destiniedjagold

Original thread:

https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=351923

These are the major changes:

The events resetting glitch was taken out.

Some text errors were fixed.

Some minor glitches in some maps were fixed.

The wrong sprites for Pokemon like Shaymin and Sprinephy were fixed.

Some Pokemon which lack some sprites were given proper sprites.

The end credits no longer simply go black after it's over.

Some legendary Pokemon like the elemental guardians, Felinar, Regirock and Sprinephy can be recruited after you beat the game so that you can get really prepared for the last battle against the Shadow. And for those maps in which you can recruit these Pokemon, the shadow event was delayed, you can only trigger the last battle in these maps after you have faced these Pokemon.

After the final event, the stone in the Tower of Fate will become a place where you can battle Chaomega/The Shadow(After the Shadow was beaten)again whenever you want.

Creator: Logan
Original thread:

https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=202372

Firstly, I must thank jiangzhengwenjzw for fixing the pokedex and letting me use his dynamic flags/vars code, this patch would not be possible without his help.

This hack was officially announced discountinued for twice. However, this hack got the chance to be finished storywise thanks to the creator who told me about how the story was supposed to be like. I did my best to make this hack feel more complete.

I have fixed the following things:

The broken safari zone scripts and the broken sign.

The fossil machine.

The pokedex(would not be possible without jiangzhengwenjzw's help)

Some messy maps.

And something else.

I have added these things:

The TV Station event.

The post-game final battle against Team Rocket.

The Pokemon Plaza, which is the battle frontier-like place of this hack.

Pokemon Academy.

A very small part of the Orange archipelago.

Garrid's sprites.

And something else.

23/4/2025 update fixed the day-care house map error.

Hotfix: The patch was updated once more for adding the Move Tutor/Move Deleter's house in Kaveri Town.

The patch was updated for fixing the rtc system of this hack. The Day/night circle had some glitches too, but thanks to jiangzhnegwenjzw, it was fixed. Also, some new post-game content was added to make more legendaries catchable. Here are some screenshots:

Hotfix: I just realized a few Pokemon's cries weren't corrected, so I had to update the game a bit more.

WARNING: The 30/6/2021 version has changed the ram address once again, old save file cannot be used in this patch anymore. Please report if this one still doesn't fix the events reset glitch.

Old version:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/9gyv7av9ahf5fnh/Sienna+Complete+Version-Old.ips/file

If both of these versions couldn't fix this glitch, then you can still try this one without any flags/vars expansion just like the old beta 4.1, but this one might have bad egg glitch, so don't try this one unless the first patch failed to solve the event reset problem.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/k5wrciojc535dho/Sienna+Complete+Version-No+Flag+Expansion.ips/file

This is a hack of Pokemon Fire Red
Creator: psychicboy
Original thread:
https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=230399

Firstly, I must thank jiangzhengwenjzw for his amazing dynamic flags/vars patch, this fixed patch would not be possible without this.

This hack was the very first hack which uses the legendary pokemon as starters, this makes this hack very unique. However, the creator decided to transform this hack into a fan game and it never come out for real, so this hack seems to be abandoned. This is why I decided to fix it up and get rid of all the gamebreaking glitches to make it much more playable.

The following things are fixed(There are too many of them so I can't list out all of them):
The Pokemon Storage system.
The glitchy tiles in Rovandria Town.
The wrong warp event in Rovandria Tunnel.
The broken person event in the Tower of Elements.
The glitchy trainers who have only one pokemon and battle in 2 on 2 way.
The broken warp event in Clarity Town.
The broken house in Gemburst Town.
The messy event in Everwind Gym.
Some borken events in Everwind Town.
...And so on, there are too many things to be fixed in this hack.

The following things were added:
1.All the special trainers' sprites, backsprites and ows including player, gym leaders, evil team members, rivals and so on.
2.All the unfinished towns/gyms.
3.Legendary Pokemon like Ho-oh, Lugia, Groundon, Kyogre, Celebi, Mew, Deoxys and Mewtwo are catchable.
4.The whole Element Tower, which is similar to the league in official games.

Screenshots:

28/05/2020 update:
Fixed the glitchy wild encounter in Gemburst cave.
(Hopefully) fixed the glitch which breaks Fly after the Mewtwo encounter.
Added several new wild pokemon.
26/05/2020 update:
You can't use the move relearner machine in several cities.
You can buy Safari Ball from the Ball Market, which was removed in the newest patch.
25/05/2020 update:
You can't use fly in some of the maps.
The game crashes when you press A after you get the reward from the first three Area Leaders in Battle Shop.

4/24/2026 update:

This update is a important one, because it adds some story events for the rest two islands, now this hack should at least have a proper ending. Also, the following things are added:

1. New story events to make the game feel more complete.

2. You can buy Exp. Share and Lucky Eggs in the market of the Tower of Elements, which should make grinding way easier.

3. Graphic changes, like new game sprites, badge sprites and so on.

4. More catchable legendaries.

5. A bunch of glitches were fixed.

Screenshots:

4/25/2026 update fixed a few minor glitches:

1. The HM Rock Smash wasn't usable in the Pokemon menu, but thanks to jiangzhengwenjzw, this was solved.

2.  Cutting the grass might mess up the grass, this was also taken out with jiangzhengwenjzw's help.

3.  A potential glitch when checking the town map.

4.  Raikou, Entei or Suicune may appear again after you chose them.

4/30/2026 update fixed a few more glitches:

1.Thanks to jiangzhengwenjzw again, the TM Cut now can be used in the Pokemon menu when you get the first badge.

(1/27/2025 update released)Pokemon Turquoise Fixed Beta 1.2

This is a hack of Pokemon Fire Red
Creator: Tropical Sunlight
Original thread:
https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=165214

This fixed patch is a bit different from the other patches here. I have added some story elements since the story of this hack seems to be much more predictable than most hacks and there are so many unused things left in the hack. The truth is, this patch could have been even more faithful to the creator's ideas than how it is now, but sadly, all the pictures about the future Beta 2 the creator posted were gone, and there's no way I can find them again. So it is not possible to replicate the orginal idea of the creator, but still, the maps up to Yellowhite City were made by the creator, so those maps should be faithful to the creator's idea.

I have fixed these things:
1.The person events which may make you turn into them.
2.Talking to a man in the first town makes the game freeze.
3.The messed up Pokedex, according to the creator's idea, there was supposed to be only 151 Pokemon in the Pokedex, but the creator decided to make more Pokemon available, so I have expanded the Florem Pokedex to make more than 200 kinds of Pokemon available in this hack.
4.The unfinished maps and unfinished sprites.
I have added these things:
1.The rest of the maps which weren't finished.
2.Some events about Team Rocket.
3.The OWs/Sprites of Gym Leaders/Elite Four except for the first two gym leaders.
4.The world map, which is not so faithful to the creator's idea since the world map from the original creator can't be found anymore.
5.All the players' sprites.
6.The titlescreen.
7.The icons for the fakemon.

Screenshots:

23/10/2022 update fixed some more glitches, added Porygon evolution line's pokedex entry. Some events related to Ryan were added, because he seems to be planned to be one of the rivals. And a battle room was added to Omega City, in which you can battle with the Gym Leaders again after you beat the Elite Four, and the way to awaken Arceus is now related to this place instead of the ruins in Ancientomb City.

Firstly, I must thank jiangzhengwenjzw for fixing up the Climb Boots thing and removing the end credits. This patch would not be possible without his help.
Special thanks to jiangzhengwenjzw, 猪小P, thctbm, 邪亚斯 for testing the game.

This hack was a pretty famous one back in 2009-2012, it's sad that this will never be finished. The truth is, it's almost impossible replicate what the creator planned to do to this hack. So the main purpose of making this patch is to make the four nice fakemon: Regiwater, Regighost, Regifire and Pendular obtainable in the actual game. So, don't expect this to be too faithful to the creator's idea.
The following things were fixed:
The broken tiles.
Some unfinished features like Climb boots.
The following things were added:
The four legendary fakemon: Regiwater, Regighost, Regifire and Pendular(They are the reasons why I made this patch)
The rest part of the region(Which is based off the world map)
The gyms(Which were based off the badges)
Some events(Not too much, I added them to make the game less empty)
Some legendaries are catchable after you beat the league(Pendular, the official regis, the legendary birds and Mew).

This old in-game clock patch was made thanks to jiangzhengwenjzw's help.  With this patch, the clock will run 6 times faster than the real clock, and the pc time doesn't affect the in-game clock.(There could be some minor glitches in this one, but it shouldn't be gamebreaking, and this patch should work on most fire red rom hacks which has the same rtc system)

I have fixed these things:
1. Entering some houses may lead you to a broken map.
2. A gamebreaking event in the Town of Greenwich.
3. The broken tiles in Outset Town.
4. The broken league entrance.
I have added these things:
1. The Ginyu Fource's script.
2. The champion battle(I don't know who is the champion, so I used the final boss of this game)
3. I recycled the map of Green Mtn. Base, however, I don't know what will happen in there, so I simply added a cave in which you can catch Kyogre(I know you are not supposed to catch any legendaries, but that's the only way to make that map useful).
