What kind of cheat requires you to get the values from 2 locations and subtract them? This doesn't sound at all what people need. If you want to kill something in 1 hit, make its HP 1. etc, etc...
Kill the monster in one hit kill the game at the same time, so I don't like the "cheat" word, I rather something like "mod" or "plug in"
I use the monster's HP displayer code to know how many damage I do per hit, what can kill, what can't, which game design choice had been made, but it's easier if i can do previousHP-currentHP to display clearly the damages done by the last hit
I realy like this game/licence, it's not just a game I install to play it 3 hours with cheats founded on internet like a child with a powersave, and drop it when I get every items by pressing three buttons
In fact, the only games installed on my 3DS with a CFW for 2 years are Monster Hunter's ones, I've never took the time to play others, thats quite a problem but some has the same problem with other games, like CS, WoW or something... :/
Even diamonds like fire emblem are really hard to be interesting for me, and it's very sad 'cause I know this series is awesome
So I need to go deeper and deeper into the game mecanic, and my main frustation is to not be able to code like ymyn, even if I figured out how to do the easy ones, there are still a lot of them where the process to found concerned adress are unknown
So original condition : games mecanic knowledge
Result : Display damages to optimise them, the easiest way
And use diverse websites information like damages calculation, monsters hitzone and everything i can found
For now, successive adress search is the only method I know (on the ingame GW menu, which is quite useful), for known values and unknown (more than, less than, equals... until the result show up) only
And also everything on the GW code here :
https://gbatemp.net/threads/guide-how-to-create-gateway-cheat-codes.410926/
But assembly codes used by ymyn are to hard for the use I have, I mean, without adresses, I can't found a proper usage where EXXX XXXX instructions a really needed
So if you have something in english/french that can be useful, I take
I've also look to NTR C code, also a huge panel of possibility, but still, without adresses, no usage of it...
I've also seen people use RAM dumps on ntrdebugger, but can't really understand how it works, because dumps are fixed so they don't move after extaction
GW ingame menu allows variable search and in game writing as a lot of us are aware of, and that's the only features I understood of ntrdebugger concerning "cheats", so I don't use ntr for that :/
@lys1030 There is also speed and damages factor which are realy close to the monster's HP value, speed is +0x1C and +0x28 from it (change them at the same time, one seemed to be the current value and the other the default value)
Speed them for challenge, slow them for damage calculation, do as you wish
Sorry for my bad english etc...
@ymyn
I know I've already asked but... how do you found all the adress' ? the simple variable search can't be enough to found them :o
The chineses links you gave me were a bit to hard to translate :/
