when i try to export a patch i get an error code saying "the two roms seem to be different versions" i use a legit rom from my physical copy and use a clean unedited rom when patching. does anyone know how to fix this issue?

are you trying to make an nmp patch or an xdelta patch?

i think its because the source rom that was used to provide you with the patch file is a different version of the rom you're using? basically, what i mean is,that the rom that was used to make the patch is maybe outdated? maybe different region roms?

The rom that im using is european, i dont know how old the rom is as i bought the game from someone else a few years ago. But Im guessing that using europe roms shouldnt be any different from using a usa rom so i doubt thats the problem.

i know this doesnt really help with the initial question per se, but id recommend using an xdelta patch instead. they usually work better and are more supported than nmp patches, so you probably wont have an issue making one

i gave xdelta a shot but it didn't seem to fix the problem. i have no idea why it says the two roms are different versions when i try to create a nmp patch as both roms i use are the same version/region. i have a nsmb rom i downloaded off a website called romspure a couple years back, but im unsure about using it because other people's advice is to get a legit rom but since my legit rom obviously isnt working i don't know what else to do but to just say screw it and use romspure's nsmb rom but what's your advice?

well, since i dunno what specifically's causing the problem, its sorta hard to give advice on it. im assuming youve already read this and this, but if you havent, you probs should check em out. also, what version of nsmbe are you using? and is the unmodified rom you're trying to make the patch with the same one you used to make your hack?

Im using the latest version of nsmbe. When i make the patch i copy and paste my original unedited rom and use the copied one. And no i have never opened the original rom with the editor so i belive im doing everything right here so i dont know either whats causing the problem. Maybe there could be something wrong with the physical copy i got the rom from.

As keeper said, did you use the same rom to make the hack that you did to patch it with? I really doubt there is anything wrong with the physical copy of your game.
Also, what region is your physical copy of the game? That might be part of the problem.
