DarthGreymon Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 I have PKNX working fine but for some reason all of the evolutions and tm compatibility and likely other things are randomized. I don't remember ever doing this but even if I did accidently I want to undo it. I just want every Pokémon to have nothing changed about them and be like they are in regular sword and shield so I can edit them myself. I tried redownloading PKNX and redumping my game but it didn't fix the problem.
Kaphotics Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 Delete the layered FS folders on both your console and pkNX's local folder.
DarthGreymon Posted January 12, 2023 Author Posted January 12, 2023 Where are the layered FS folders on PKNX and yuzu. I looked in the PKNX folder and the yuzu file directory but I didn't see either. I'm probably just looking in the wrong place but I would appreciate some guidance
BigSmartCock Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 @DarthGreymonDon't listen to @Kaphoticshe's a known troll and doesn't know what he's talking about. All you need to do is redownload PKNX and delete the old version and that should fix your problem.
DarthGreymon Posted January 13, 2023 Author Posted January 13, 2023 Ok I'm not really sure what you're talking about but either way that didn't fix my problem either. I can't find the layered FS folder you were talking about @KaphoticsI looked through my PKNX folder and didn't see anything called layered FS
DarthGreymon Posted January 13, 2023 Author Posted January 13, 2023 I reinstalled my Pokemon Shield Rom but it still has the randomized moves and evolutions even though it's a new rom. I get that I have to delete something in PKNX as well but I really can't find the layered fs or what that would be.
Kaphotics Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 pkNX edits a folder that contains a ROM dump. Any files that are changed from the ROM dump are stored in the ROM dump's folder, inside a 16-digit folder (ROM's Title ID). This Title ID folder is what you copy to your console, and the console's layeredfs feature will load the files from that folder instead of the cart/SD when requested by the game. When loading files to edit, pkNX checks the Title ID folder to see if the file has been edited. If it exists, it loads it, otherwise, it reads it from the unmodified romfs. When you wish to revert modifications completely, you go into the Title ID folder and delete the modded files, so that pkNX loads from the unmodified romfs. When the files are deleted, the modded files will be gone, and you should be seeing unmodified data in-game and in the editor. If you are seeing randomized data in a fresh ROM dump, then you either didn't open the correct ROM dump folder, or you pirated a pre-modded ROM. Neither of which are issues with pkNX. pkNX does not load data that does not exist. It is up to you to ensure you are copying files and managing mods correctly; pkNX is just a program that loads data from where it is told to load from, same as the console.
DarthGreymon Posted January 14, 2023 Author Posted January 14, 2023 How do I delete just the modded files? I'm not even sure what all of the files that got randomized were but if I can find out I will. I just don't know how to find exactly what I need to delete
DarthGreymon Posted January 14, 2023 Author Posted January 14, 2023 I've redumped my rom and reinstalled a completely new rom as well and the changes are still the same. It's not a pre modded rom either as the changes that are made are consistent with what my originally randomized changes were. My guess is that yuzu is saving the changes I've made to my rom but I don't understand why. I've redumped the rom numerous times but it still gives me the same weird randomized files. I'm really at a loss as to why it does this even after I deleted my romfs and tried to start fresh.
DarthGreymon Posted January 15, 2023 Author Posted January 15, 2023 I'm officially at a loss. I went for the nuclear option and deleted yuzu entirely to try and erase all previous data from it and it STILL has my game randomized no matter how I dump the game or where I get it from. I know you have tried to help already @Kaphoticsand I do appreciate that a lot but If you have any more suggestions or even just things for to try or take a gamble on please let me know.
DarthGreymon Posted January 15, 2023 Author Posted January 15, 2023 My other theory is that it just says things are randomized when they aren't maybe? For example rookidee says it evolves into Mandibuzz at level 54 but maybe it doesn't or it does for a different reason? I know it's a bit of a stretch but it's the best I got
DarthGreymon Posted January 15, 2023 Author Posted January 15, 2023 I've also noticed that for the tr learnset all pokemon have the same randomized learnset not different if that helps at all
