I can't seem to get this to work. I am using a New 3DS XL USA, which would mean I would use the hex 3646BBCC. I would then convert to a dec, subtract 16, and reconvert which becomes 3646BBBC. I then use that when using the full command which is write(0x3644BBBC, (0x04, 0x00), pid=0x34) and nothing happens. I am tryign this when I am in the real machine.

Try write(0x364686BC, (0x04,0x00), pid=0x[pid]) to initiate. And then add 0x10 to make the write code: 0x364686CC when you want to change how many plays you get. Upon the first code, it should immediately go. Upon the second you need to play a game before it'll update I think.

The codes on that second sheet are wrong. The new ones are from the 'v2' tab.

Thank you! That did just the trick :D

Of course it did :P. I had the exact same issue. I dunno if it's just that the code changed, or if it was just wrong in general. But yea, the reason it wasn't working was because it was the wrong offset. I imagine the training one is also off, but I did some weird dun-goof thing and locked it for today. Lol.

Is there a way to do this with NTR cfw instead of debugger?

I think so. You have to make a plugin that NTR will run. But I'm not sure how to do that. If you had it in the CFW itself you'd run into a problem where you can't leave the badge arcade, so you'd need button combos to set the values to what you want. Which then becomes even more complicated.

Though, if someone familiar with NTR plugins could chime in, that'd be great. The debugger method is fairly straight forward and works well once you get the hang of it (it works for more codes/games as well, so that's nice).

I made plugins for NTR with layeredFS, but I did not try to make them for cheats plugin. I'll take a look to the docs once I get NTR running again on 10.3 emunand.

As long as you don't do anything stupid and obvious you should be fine.

Getting 300 badges in one day when you haven't spent a penny is probably a good way to get noticed.

Nope, you're doing something wrong.
I can't give you the code for today because i'm with my phone and i also got banned from badge arcade, just wait...
It literally just worked as you posted haha

So theyre banning now? Do they ban if you have 99 goes? or only if you get an obscene amount of badges?

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    never had that i don't think
