Alright, let's do this where we last started off.

First of all, Conja0, drwhojan, and Xeno, you guys still up for this?

If you want to start helping in our exploration, follow along below!

Download TTDT.exe

(Thanks to Drwhojan)

CODE

http://filetrip.net/f9936-TTDT-for-editing-infolib-dat-extinfo-dat-savlib-dat-v1-0.html

- This is the tool to extract info from the infolib.dat, and extinfo.dat, it also allows us to edit the hex in them.

To get the latest TTDSi firmware, and as well as the latest official infolib.dat and extinfo.dat, go here.

CODE

http://www.ndstti.cn/50.html

Get a copy of Pokemon Black or White (Black recommended however) and make 2 copies of it. (I WILL not support the distribution of ROMS, as it is in violation of GBATemp rules), sorry to say but if you can't find a copy of these ROMs, you will not be of any use to this project. Thank-you.

Label the ROMS as Pokemon Black (Patched).nds and Pokemon Black (clean).nds

Download your favorite hex editor, HexCmp2 is the best but I will not give the warez for it. If you need to crack it, find it out on your own.

Search for the hex code AP patch for Black and White, and use the appropriate tool to patch them.

And more importantly, get DeSMuME, as HexCmp2 or any other hex editor is basically is needed to do this.

Launch any of the roms on DeSMuME, and look for the differences. (For those of you that want to learn, you'll figure it out rather quickly)



Thanks to Retro for this INCREDIBLY useful information about extinfo.lib locations for the patch within the game. I hope he does come back, as he and Pong are very intelligent people. The community could benefit from what they have learned, and more importantly, how they learned it.

Here goes.

Update :

Retro and Pong have released 6.30 with support for Pokemon Black and White (J).

It can be found here :

CODE

http://filetrip.net/f13032-TTDS-EXT-INFO-SAV-6-30.html

I will keep up the information they have provided in case anyone wants to learn like I do.

TESTED AND WORKING ON NDSTTi!!! I'm not sure about it working on R4 although it should.

Without further ado, I wish that Retro and Pong can finally just enjoy themselves, not worrying about updating because of ungreatful naggers. I hope you guys all learned a lesson, and to treat EVERYONE with respect, not just Retro and Pong.

Good luck you two, you have a bright future, I say this because of the intelligence you have shown through support. Again, thank-you sincerely from myself, JiN1337 and on behalf of all of GBATemp. =)

Good luck. I won't be buying another card in any case. Question though, are you going to be able to merge your project with 6.28 or have seperate infolib etc files?

For what my opinion is worth, I suggest a separate file tree in case Pong's and Retro's blessing can't be granted to merge sources, just
as to avoid a torrent of confusion, false accusations and other yadda that could ensue.

They will be merged of course.

Thank me for what ??, I did not make the TTDT.exe program , But it is a usefull tool to edit the infolib.dat , extinfo.dat , savlib.dat , usrcheat.dat

It's a question of knowing the offset's and hex to use , untill i have anuther DS lite back it would be hard for me to lern any furver

Some advice though: Just toy around with hex - and offset's to where you may think the problem is, they is no harm in that... , you might hit a narve and then you know if they is a reaction there!

No, I'm thanking you for uploading the program. It happens to be useful as it's the easiest and maybe only solution to editing these files right now.
