ROM Hack DS Auto Trainer Maker (DSATM)

[cracker]

I just tested out MPDS and didn't have any problem. BTW the Press L for Max ____ codes must only work in Story mode -- Party mode gets no joy from them. The addresses are changed. (That or the code hacker didn't see that it needed a pointer.)

v1.0 has a CRC of f24508aa v1.1 has a CRC of 7e62f586. If you have WinRAR it will tell you it. Otherwise you can use a tool like HashOnClick to get it.

Any chance you feel like posting some detailed information on each code type, the only information i could find is out dated and wrong

r u talking to me or cracker? cuz i dont know a thing about code types

 

[Normmatt]

cracker, he seems to know alot about each action replay ds code type, and i'd like to fix up the cheat engine in AKAIO and i need accurate information.

I had a lot of trouble finding that information too. The best resource I've found so far is http://www.gshi.org/vb/showthread.php?p=27639#post27639

 

[Normmatt]

Kenobi's document is very detailed but I'm not sure if its the most accurate document, although it is the only document i've found for ards code types.

 

[cracker]

Was just going to ask you that. Yeah I have found a few places where there was a lack of info or bad info. I think it might be due to not updating/adding to some info when the newer versions of the ARDS were made and it was forgotten about. Are there any code types in particular that you need info on?

 

[Syzero]

and with animal crossing, how can you tell which version your rom is?
and about what u said:

use 0x23ffe88 instead,

well i tried that but i still get a white screen?

is it because of the codes im using or the ram address itself?

 

[cracker]

The RAM address. The codes work fine.

 

[Tempus35]

For anyone that wants to know codes for FFIV work but the ram address/space is very small. It starts at 0x23A8A00 for ARM7, which is the only thing ARM you can patch to to make it work. All codes have to fit into a space of 226882 bytes. Though so far I have only got one time activated codes to work, such as hit select+A for money. The codes that constantly run crash the game.

odd, i still get a white screen

i show ya the codes just in case:

Use the address from line 7 in the mastercode for the RAM address -- 23ff090. Also don't put the mastercode into the cheat file as it will just waste space by writing to 0x0 (nowhere). I will add mastercode -> RAM address handling in the next version.

Hey, cracker, why arnt you responding to my messages?

The game iam trying to patch is pokemon diamond and when i patch it the output file is only 1,000 kb

man that sucks, even the "select+A for money" code crashes my game after a few seconds, with other codes the game wont even start(white screen after new game button)/loading a save gets an error msg ..
is there no workaround for this?

i still get a white screen!

Edit:nevermind, i got it to work by using that address and autopatching a=instead of regular patching

Patching to ARM7 with the address I wrote worked fine for me. How are you formatting the cheats and what cheats are you using. As for the money code, load your game hit select+A to get the money and then save and exit, then load the game without the codes, that is use a non modified rom, you will still have the money then due to the save. As for other codes, most won't work, only one time codes, like the money work and only if you load the game load them then save and then use a non patched rom.

Patching to ARM7 with the address I wrote worked fine for me. How are you formatting the cheats and what cheats are you using. As for the money code, load your game hit select+A to get the money and then save and exit, then load the game without the codes, that is use a non modified rom, you will still have the money then due to the save. As for other codes, most won't work, only one time codes, like the money work and only if you load the game load them then save and then use a non patched rom.

True that works( I already thought about that^^), but I wouldn't say that is "working fine" besides you are limited to just a couple of codes(instant triggered ones) :/
Oh and I used the same cheat as you. The first time I tried Iused non-triggered codes and it didn't work.

 

[pwn3d91]

EDIT: Hey anyone having problems with FF IV DS and loading a savegame, I've come up with a solution! All you need to do is load up FF IV, then disable the trainer before you load a save game, and after everything has loaded, enable it again!

with teleporter, it doesnt work and with text to item, when i try it, game freezes, why?

The text to item code uses an asm hack into the AR cheat engine. This is why it was freezing up -- because it was overwriting part of DSATM's cheat function code. I'll see what I can do to work around the problem...

As for the teleporter code: either the documentation is way off (but I know that other codes that use the same style as this work) or the codes are way messed up.

For instance:
B21C6DEC 00000000
D9000000 FFFFFAB8
D3000000 00000000
D6000000 02000000
D3000000 00000000

in pseudo-code means:

load the address from 21C6DEC
load the long value from [address at 21C6DEC]+FFFFFAB8 (1021C68A4 truncated to 21C68A4 -- one way to do subtraction)
set the address offset (previously the address at 21C6DEC) to 0
store the long value that was loaded in the second command to the address offset (0) + 2000000 (the very start of RAM)
set the address offset (redundantly) to 0

This obviously makes no sense.

Unless (as I said before) the code documentation was way off but then all the other codes that used these lines would work by a fluke.

Haven't had time to look at the Digimon codes...
