Emulators

JPCSP: mostly compatible with the patch, but it has its share of problems, and it suffers from considerable slowdown–especially in 3D sections. Tips for getting the game running in JPCSP: from kingofgame91 and Matt.

PPSSPP: fixes for the major bugs have made it into the stable builds of the emulator as of v0.9, so just download the most recent stable version. Go to Options -> Rendering Mode and select “Read Framebuffers to Memory(CPU)”.

☨ “No Movies” just means the patch doesn’t alter the movies already present in the game (except for one tiny clip necessary to the story). It does not mean the game has no movies at all.

Applying the patch

Windows

Copy the Danganronpa ISO to same folder as the patch files (or the other way around). Rename the ISO "Danganronpa.iso" If file extensions are set to hidden, you might need to name it plain "Danganronpa" without the ".iso" part, since it should already have the proper extension. Double-click on "apply_patch.bat" and wait for it to finish. This can take several minutes to complete. It should output either "Danganronpa [EN][v1.0][Full].iso" (1.24 GB) or "Danganronpa [EN][v1.0][No Movies].iso" (1.20 GB) depending on which version of the patch you have. If you want, you can now verify your patched ISO against the hashes listed in the next section. Put the patched ISO in a folder named “ISO” on the root of your PSP’s Memory Stick.

Download and extract http://thejbnet.com/progs/xgui/app/xdeltagui.zip Launch xdeltagui.exe Go to Settings -> Paths, and browse to the “xdelta3-3.0.6-win32.exe” included with the patch. Original file = original ISO file, and patch = .xdelta file. (The GUI might be unresponsive when you select the ISO file and when you patch the file). Put the patched ISO in a folder named “ISO” on the root of your PSP’s Memory Stick.

To patch xdelta files, you’ll have to download the xdelta program, which can be used through the Mac’s Terminal program (the equivalent of Window’s Command Prompt).

Install Homebrew from http://mxcl.github.io/homebrew/ Open Terminal and type “ brew install xdelta ”. You may need to download Xcode for Homebrew to work, which is on the Mac OS install disc. If you can’t find it, you can also download the program from the Apple site.

Make sure you have the proper version of Xcode for your Mac OS! You can go to https://developer.apple.com/downloads/ and type in Xcode in the search box to the left, and then look for the right version. Put the original ISO (the Danganronpa game file) and patch files (the xdelta file downloaded from Project Zetsubou) into the same folder. In this example, the folder will be called “Patcher.” Navigate to that folder in Terminal using the cd command. The easiest way is to type cd, enter a space, and then drag the folder into the Terminal. Format: cd (folder) Example: cd /Users/Klee/Desktop/Patcher Type in the patch command into Terminal. Format: xdelta3 -d -s "base" xdelta file source "location"

The “base” is the name of the original Danganronpa game file, while the “xdelta file source” is the name of the xdelta patch download. The location is whatever you want to name the finished, patched game file.

Example: xdelta3 -d -s "Danganronpa.iso" danganronpa-1.0-full.xdelta "Danganronpa [EN][v1.0][Full].iso"

If successful, a second game file should be created. The patch process does take a little while, and unfortunately Terminal doesn’t let you know when it finishes in an obvious manner. The easiest way to make sure is to check the file size of the game file (right-click, Get Info). It should stop increasing at around 1.24 GB for the full patch and 1.20 GB for the no-movies version. Put the patched ISO in a folder named “ISO” on the root of your PSP’s Memory Stick.

What you’ll want to do first, though is go into your terminal, and type in “ sudo apt-get install xdelta3 ” (without quotes), then, when prompted, give it the okay with your administrative password – this will install xdelta3 without you needing to do anything else. Then, follow the rest of Klee’s command-line instructions. Also, any command-line folks that are having issues: check your quote placement and make sure that it’s exactly the same as Klee’s! That will always make the patch fail. Finally: put the patched ISO in a folder named “ISO” on the root of your PSP’s Memory Stick.
