Does anyone know any good Dragon Quest IX hacks?

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

DQ IX is my favorite RPG ever and what I turn to whenever I want a chill, MMO-like experience on the go. I have beaten it dozens of times and I just think that it is almost perfect for what it is, too... perhaps it is for that very reason that I haven't been able to locate any hacks at all, but I'd be very interested in exploring any that you may know about.

So... Do you guys know of any hacks for this amazing game?

Thanks!

I'm just aware of a decompilation project... and it seems it's still in early stages.
Couldn't find any romhack either.

There is a rebalance romhack but someone reported Grotto bosses are bugged and only have 1HP.
Not a romhack, but there's also the official DLC that adds quests, bosses, items, and story.

i just want people to play multiplayer with, since you can do 4 players on melonDS (on one PC)
yeah there's a rebalance rom hack, and my only real dislike with DQ9 vanilla is magic is not that strong
the game's too easy with 3 warriors and a priest

on that note there's a save editor and stuff for everything, including special Guests in hotel, and editing grottos. https://www.woodus.com/den/games/dq9ds/save_editor.php
BE CAREFUL WITH EDITING INN LEVELS AND GUESTS, if you do this BEFORE getting the Inny trophy and actually unlocking the rooms, the story will be stuck, wait until the inn's actually open, make backups absolutely.

I doubt that's possible, NDS is AFAIK a real bitch to hack compared to GBA, so i doub we can see some anytime soon
