Does anyone know of a utility that will allow you to apply translation patches to SNES Roms?

Have you tried to use a dos emulator. Most the of translater programs that patch the roms are dos based. So it should work.

if you put the patch in the same dir as the rom, zsnes patches it dynamically when you load the rom.

at least... it did on the old windows versions i used 2 years ago. i would assume it does the same for the linux version. what i did was zip the rom and the patch in the same zip file and load that since zsnes could run archived and compressed files. that way i dont have patches lying all over the place (it's also a great space saver!) :mrgreen:

give it a shot.

I managed to find a java app that will apply patches. No dosemu needed. Thanks for the suggestions though.
