@FIX94 Do you think similar injection apps like Snesinject could be made for injecting N64, GBA, etc ROMs?
n64 and ds dont need gecko you can replace the rom with cafiine just fine and you dont have to deal with rom bigger thanoriginal and whatnot, only nes,snes and gba need gecko becuase you need to inject the roms since there is no rom folder they are fused with the executable tahts why you cant use bigger roms or while injecting you will break the executable.

I've never used Caffiine before, actually, but don't I still need to know the offsets on where the ROM start and where it ends? I've no idea on how to actually inject, what's the best method?

for cafiine no you dont need to.

For instance thats how i did it on finding my VC n64 inject stuff

first set up cafiine then launch VC titles, i see the game id on pc, exit out to wiiu menu and make cafiine folder with that gameid then run the room again and since we have a gamid now caffine will read all titles it loads, so just look for the rom path and name its that simple xD.

Now I just need to find out how to get the ROM IDs XD

If you could get a full ram dump from them all, and fsa dump from partner in time, i'll be glad to give it a look :)

currently have no money (blame home rent and internet bill haha) so I cannot buy eshop games until thurstday :D
Could you tell me how to do a ram dump with Caffiine? I have Minish Cap if that would help any, I just know next to nothing about networking

Not cafiine, but tcgp gecko :)

You can do a fsa dump, and RAM dump from the 10 offset :)

on a side note anyone looking for GBA roms in ram dumps, check out 0x34571100 not sure if it would differ between games, but for megaman battle network the rom is stored there,
̶i̶m̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶s̶u̶r̶e̶ ̶i̶f̶ ̶i̶t̶s̶ ̶j̶u̶s̶t̶ ̶m̶e̶s̶s̶e̶d̶ ̶u̶p̶ ̶o̶r̶ ̶a̶ ̶h̶e̶a̶v̶i̶l̶y̶ ̶p̶a̶t̶c̶h̶e̶d̶ ̶v̶e̶r̶s̶i̶o̶n̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶i̶t̶ ̶l̶o̶a̶d̶s̶ ̶u̶p̶ ̶i̶n̶ ̶V̶B̶A̶ ̶a̶f̶t̶e̶r̶ ̶b̶y̶t̶e̶s̶w̶a̶p̶p̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶i̶t̶s̶ ̶b̶u̶g̶g̶y̶ ̶a̶s̶ ̶h̶e̶l̶l̶

nevermind i just messed up along the way, the dump works fine from that offset

might save you going a big ram dump will probably be at the same offset or close by

Haha :D Just dumped Kawashima Brain Training (old version)... The rom which is loaded is in /0100/rom.nds - which we used to inject. But there is a second rom in the root. "/rom.nds" which is Yoshi Touch & Go :D So they packed two roms in there!

any chance you got a n64 vc title to dump preferely an newer release? gecko just never connects for me.

I only have Donkey Kong 64 and it's not working with loadiine.

The Yoshi Touch & Go Rom in Kawashima is a EUR rom and there are lots of differences to the scene release. Filesystem looks the same and I won't analyze that further.

So i looked into yoshi island ds and i have one fo those rom.zips and even when using the original dumped room.zip it doesnt work with caffine, the game should wait on the splash screen until the rom is loaded before running which doesnt happen and it trys to run before cafiine even reaches the part to upload the rom and crashes.

Has anyone tried GBA injection yet?. I bought 2 games but not tested them, spending too much time with Loadiine at the moment.

also is there an update on using Loadiine and VC titles could someone please explain. :)

I did not try to inject other roms, but I dumpedmy copy of The Legend of Zelda - The Minish Cap and it's working with loadiine. NES, SNES & GBA is working with loadiine, N64 and NDS sadly not.
So a emu loader for those 3 systems is doable. I may find some free time this week :)

That's great news so you can dump VC games as well, no way of injecting them via Loadiine anyone tested this out yet?
