converting xdelta to ips
i am trying to get the translation file for gensou suikoden card stories en found on romhacking.net which is an xdelta file, to work with the retron5. since it seems like the retron5 cannot use xdelta files, my idea was to convert it into an ips file, but have not been able to find a utility that would do this conversion. one thing i heard about ips files is that there is a filesize limit of some amount i do not know, but doubt that the patch would be anywhere near that limit as most are under 200 kb, that i've seen. any ideas please let me know, thanks!

Re: converting xdelta to ips
Patch limit shouldn't be an issue system depending. I've found patches under 10mb in size seem to work fine. If you merge the xdelta file into the corresponding rom, you can then use a tool such as lunar IPS to generate an IPS patch between the original rom and your merged modified rom. It's a bit of a process, but totally doable.

I made a fixed patch for the game you need some time ago using the same exact process hikaricore just described (so it definitely works):
