Should have written this since day one. Not sure how many have given up using it but here it is.
If you have tried to do search with Breeze and given up due to this not being written please try again

not sure, searching any value (ex. 9999999 99999999) on Breath of the Wild 1.0 will be produce the same effect

it's not like that for all the other games?
had that bug before, now I only expecct small deviation from 100% when searching code

yeah, so far that's the only game I have encountered
not sure if you want to take a look at it or not

is it just cosmetic?

I think it won't stop until the search is canceled and the repeating results found will be the same address

I notice the address being the same for each line. I will look into it later unless there are more games that have this problem

ok, more to report
if custom shortcut is enabled, End Search and Pause Search in the searching progress window is not programmable and push X or B also has no effect

 

[dsrules]

choose "any file from Breeze's TID directory" also crashes AMS if the folder doean't exist?

Nice work Tom. Question for someone who is a complete Noob. Your Wikis are, I would say, a bit more technical. I am just after a simple guide that says " so you want to get infinite lives on a game - well, here's how to do it step by step". I have read so many of the Wikis, and they really don't give a basic explainer. I just need a complete basic, never done this before, don't know how to do search and create a cheat guide. Is there something like that anywhere? It seems a lot of the newer games don't have any cheat files, so I was attempting to create my own.

https://github.com/tomvita/Breeze-Beta/wiki/Basics-of-Search#what-you-see-is-what-you-search
Here is the list of button press starting from the main menu
 SearchManager
  ExpandMenu
  EQ cycle ( repeat until you get what you want )
  uint type ( repeat until you get what you want, if you go for =* then skip this step )
 Edit A ( enter the value you want to search )
 Start Search
Here is an illustration
Going to search for rings

Never ever start from a search of zero, play until you have at least one ring

Set it up to search for 2 as seen in the screen above

Play until you have more rings
Then continue the search

With the candidates reduced to a small number take a look at them

Go ahead and hack the value

Mission complete

@TomSwitch - Tom, you're a legend. Thank you sir!

@TomSwitch , could you change the distance from u8 to u16 for
" "A,,B distance = ?" in the screen shot above that is 10"
0xff distance is not enough

Use advance search but bear in mind that you will get a lot of hits
Use Edit A to change the gap allowance.
Advance search UI has the bug that you reported earlier and I haven't fix it. The short cut is mingled with Search manager and if you use any short cut that isn't intended for Advance search it will crash. I have not use it that much so there may be other bugs too.
Gap allowance let you have gaps that vary from 1 to A
This example search for 15 followed by between 1 to 100 gap followed by 20

The difference between "A,,B" search and advance search that search for A, Gap allowance, B is that in advance search the order is required condition i.e. A has to come before B to get a hit.

If I changed the datatype for this option I would be changing the format of BreezeOptions which means everybody have to redo their customization.

not really sure how Gap allowance works, how would I go about setting it to search for B value which is +0x480 from value A?

set A to 0x480 then insert the gap if you know the gap is exactly 0x480 units, if you want byte then use u8

This will find the addresses that has the value F and also has the value 0x14 that is 0x480 half words away.

been trying it for a while, somehow couldn't get it to work properly
for example, I want to search the value at HEAP+0 0xC2A00 for valueA and using +0x30 = 1 for valueB

no result found

using Advance Search Gap

also no result found

Edizon SE has no problem finding the address using multisearch

don't know why, the first time I used Distance it was working properly, now sometimes no result or many results even when the value doesn't match valueB

Take this example. A = u8 04, gap = 5 x u8, B = u8 0x20
A = u16 4, gap = 2 x u16, B = u16 0x20

Using A,,B search should be able to get this as one of the candidates.

that works

from my understanding GAP is B-A total distance - One (Byte Type: 1,2,4,8) then divide by Byte Type, might need a hex calculator to perform some calcultaions

using Distance would be way more convenient, but it doesn't seem to work properly

using Distance = 4 works

using Distance = 0x24 failed

using Distance = 4 works

When searching ValueA = 0x00000003, ValueB = 0x00002000, Distances = 4, I got results like these, where ValueB doesn't match

@dsrules did I miss anything from your earlier reported bugs?

I am looking into this one now

I forgot, will have to play around with it for awhile to see if I could find anything wrong with it
now, I just found out that using Delete File in Search Manager sometimes crashes AMS even when a search # exists in the Search Manager list


few more pics for disatnce search
Distance = 0x10 failed

Distance = 4 ok

 

[TomSwitch]

There are two problem. One is the extra buffer size that I allocate, it's only 0x200 which can only support distance of 0x100 bytes. The other is the start of you target is very near the start of segment, I suppose when the distance is bigger than that it won't work.
