OK, I checked and everything for me is up to date. My game ID is different though. Mine is BKIE-F2C7834F. I still couldn't find the CRC32. I don't understand what I am supposed to put as my input on the online calculator. I think It wants a string of #. Anyways do you think my game just wasn't patched correctly or something? If that is the case, how did you go about patching yours? Also thanks for all the advice so far!
The ROM file itself, you can use this site, for example.
I used DeltaPatcher, it validates the checksum of the original file and refuses to apply the XDelta patch to a file different from the one it was made for.

Okay after going to the website I got 0acd1c49. Do you think that means I used the wrong patch or something???? I tried repatching the ROM using the link you provided and got the same results. Did you use a different Xdelta file than me. Could you show me where you got the Xdelta file?
The CRC32 of mine Spirit Tracks (USA) D-Pad patched ROM is F846F7F3.
In my opinion, yes, you’re doing something wrong in some way.
I used this, the same that is mentioned in the main post of this thread.

I did this but my 3ds is giving me a white screen when I try and boot the game with the cheat enabled. Boots fine (with simple d-pad support) if the Cpad cheat is disabled. Not sure what else to do.
edit: may have had a bad TwlBg dumped. Tried again and it seems to be working!

Okay, I repatched the rom. Had the exact same CRC32 and game ID as you. When I tried the circle pad code it still wouldn't work. I'd only have 8 directions of movement. Is there anything else I still have to change?
I'm out of ideas at this point.
Is your 3DS updated to the firmware 11.17.0?
You can try to do a clean re-install of TWiLightMenu (delete \_nds folder and re-download it from Universal Updater or manually), but I doubt that doing so will solve the problem.
I'll try doing/checking all those things. Do you think you could send a video or something just so I can see how it works on your side? or talk about your process of patching it? Maybe I'm just happening to miss a super obvious step or something lol.
I’m sorry but I won’t make a video, the difference between the 8-directional movement and the 360º movement is clear. The CPad patch on Spirit Tracks works exactly as on Phantom Hourglass.
The entire patching process is identical to Phantom Hourglass, so if you got it to work, the steps for Spirit Tracks are the same.
Okay yeah completely understand! You know at this point I think I might just give up. At the very least the game is playable so I guess that's good enough. Thanks for all the help though!
So I was planning on asking about using these with physical carts, but I see you already responded to that question saying you didn't really know much. So instead, I'll add what I've learned on the topic through my own research, and see if anyone can help with further research. The TL;DR to physical carts is: no, afaik.
To start, I know I have the codes working on their own because I'm able to load them through dumps on Twilight Menu. So they are initially working. I tried it with Nitrohax, both the 3DS version and the dsi version ran through Twilight Menu. In both cases, I was able to run the games fine with other smaller codes, but these codes would white screen. I assume that's because Nitrohax has some sort of character limit for codes.
(Do note that Nitrohax doesn't work with DSi enhanced games. I know that applies to the Gen 5 Pokemon, but idk if that applies to any of these games.)
I was thinking that *maybe* a physical Action Replay *might* work, but I don't own one (anymore) nor do I know if they even work on all 3ds consoles.
I've only tested NitroHax with SM64ds, Okamiden, Spirit Tracks, and Phantom Hourglass. I'm not sure what this character limit is, assuming there is one. I also haven't tested it with the orginal Nitrohax that takes .xml files. Just the newer version that accepts .dat files. Soooo yeah, that's my testing when it comes to using these with physical games. If anyone would like to add to it, go ahead, but as of now the TL;DR is: no, it's not possible to load these with physical carts.

It would be amazing to have this mod for Phantasy Star Zero! It seems quite a few people complain about the controls.
Cpad Analog movement, and if possible the mini cstick for the camera, would be a real quality of life enhancement for the game.
ZL / ZR being able to trigger actions from the 2nd action palette would be cool too, but maybe out of scope.
Or hacking in 4 action palettes, switching via the now freed up dpad... just thinking out loud

I was going to edit this to get the alternate controls for Metroid Prime Hunters, but I have realized that this file does not open in Cheat Code Editor 1.1. What are you using to edit this?
HereRE-RE-EDIT: So I indeed managed to combine all your file for MPH to get what I want ie inverted c-stick but not gyro + updated controls with buttons for missile and morph ball. However, I cannot find how to invert the c-stick for Moon, it does not seem to be encoded the same way as for MPH.... reverse-engineering meets its limits I guess
This is most certainly my bug. Not surprisingly, as I don't really play these. I'll try to fix it soon.
If I remember correctly, it should only be the first 512 bytes of the rom (its header). Otherwise it would be too performance heavy. Although it doesn't matter in this case, it also theoretically means that two slightly different roms may share the exact same checksum
It's fine. Sometimes things just don't work the way we want them to. At least, I have no idea why it happens
Essentially there are two possible reasons for this white screen. First, as it's been said in the troubleshooting section, you haven't patched the TwlFirm (or you have, but TwilightMenu swaps it with an unpatched one). Second, the game just crashes for any imaginable reason (it's obviously caused by my patch, but I have no way to know why and how to fix it). I would suggest you to check if at least widescreen patches work for you (they also require patched TwlFirm, and if they don't function properly, mine won't either)
Okay, I'll look into it once I have my free timeIt would be amazing to have this mod for Phantasy Star Zero! It seems quite a few people complain about the controls.

I think there already is a patch for Mario 64 DS on Wii U. If you are on Aroma just go to the homebrew store and look it up (I think). I might be wrong though. I don't really play DS games on my Wii U lol. I'm not sure about the other games tho.
Is there any possibility i could get indiviual codes for star fox for the different aerial manuevers, like the barrel roll and the flips? I'd like to play on pc but the old dpad code is severely lacking and the one here can't be used on pc :/
