Which ROM the patch expects

The readme asks for an unmodified HeartGold (USA) dump. Three hashes are published for that file:

If your hashes differ, the readme says not to force the patch. Apply exactly one patch to the clean ROM. Do not stack this file on an older Retiled patch.

Older builds and third-party mirrors

Releases v1.0.0 through v1.0.8 are still listed. v1.0.0–v1.0.3 remain on the older Heart-Gold-Retiled repository. PokeHackDex also hosts MediaFire and MEGA copies, and that page still says Completed English v1.0.6. I treat those mirrors as behind the GitHub release.

This site does not host a ROM, a pre-patched ROM, or a copy of the xdelta. The repository says it contains patch files and mapping resources only.

Next step: how to apply the patch, then which emulator can open the .nds. If the result is a black screen, use the crash notes.
