Hacking DSTT infolibs

[Bunie]

Looks like Golden Sun Dark Dawn has been released. Looks like it's time to work, Bunie.

Please ask nicer.

Also, if you want a fix, list the problem. if it boots to white screen, i *May* be able to fix that (Unlikely)
-4 error, i wouldn't have any idea about.

Please dont expect fixes from me. I know about as much about this as you guys do. I just want to learn more pretty badly.

You guys know i have an R4? So i could just throw away my DSTT and use YWG's firmware, Wood. But i don't, because i don't want people to feel as doomed as i have.

Testing the rom now.

EDIT: Unfortunately, the rom gives the quickest -4 error i've ever seen, lol. I will attempt a fix, but, again, I know nothing.

Just going to listen to "Get up offa that thing", and see about making a patch for the rom. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if patches are allowed (Not that it matters because again, i know nothing. Lol.)

you should contact a dude on the other thread who got it to white screens
see ya laters

You can get it to white screens just by placing the wrong infolib information or replacing certain files with that of other games, but in these cases the rom file is just broken.

Hi,

Extinfo.dat is OK.
Just got to get the infolib data for that rom... Cannot do anything this week as I only got my netbook and few classic hexadecimal editors, do not know it that's enough tools to do the stuff.

Ummmm, if you are referring to the extinfo data that has been posted in this thread and the other thread, then you are mistaken....extinfo is not OK...not trying to cause any trouble or stir up anything...it's just better that you all know that

 

[CalamityDjenn]

Is it because it is missing some offsets from the (J) version? :x

There are the data offsets' I posted to the other thread :

Thanks to Drwhojan - Jhon 591 from the *rom site removed* dot net forum getting the hex data from the rom (as my Linux system is a pain to do so)

DSTT/YSMENU - - extinfo + infolib - 5367 | Golden sun : Dark dawn (U)

I added the game hex data in extinfo.dat :

BO5E - 07620610 (encrypted ID).

I also duplicated the BO5J - 31F8E805 line then renamed it BO5E - 07620610 so it gots the (J) data inside and allow the boot part, but those data are wrong, they need to be edited!

Whatever, before I had an errcode=-4, now the game just boots fine but I got double white screens.

What should I do then with extinfo.dat infolib.dat ... ? :/


Moreover, I cannot get anything with B05E - 95430ABF... I cannot test to encrypt/decrypt my rom as I am on a linux kernel and most of .exe freeze or don't launch at all atm (i'm working on it).

It's not a demand. All I'm am saying is good luck. Take your time. If you don't do it, I won't blame you.

 

[Bunie]

Retro's returned, For the moment anyway.

I wish him the best and im still willing to help out in any way needed.

Only for games that don't have errcodes XD! , But your welcome!

Yes I know. But I don't have error problems, I can load the games what I want just loaded so slow. (Pokemon Platinum took 3-4 minutes to load, but now it just 3 second.

) I love you! xD

 

[drwhojan]

Your welcome gaboros!

- should load in seconds if done right! - to all that is

check all text files!

 

[Gaboros]

I don't know any of you using YSM3 (I recently update it) but I patched the files to work with YSM3. I don't have YSMenu I can't use it. I only have YSM3 but the patched files which I made are working well. You can take a look at here:

http://filebeam.com/e8f79f2bc1fcb411155adbcbb1e531e8

I have put it in my filebeam folder, but if you have any problem with it drwhojan, just tell me and I delete it! Thank you again. I can't say how happy you made me.

Strange. I did everything what you write in the readme file and it worked... at the first load... at the first load it loaded in 3 second then I turned off then on my nds and I tried to load the game again. But at the second load it loaded age for long minutes. I did everything again and it was fast again...at the first load... then I tried load again and it was again slow.

Any idea?

Was it mearged with InfolibMerge.nds ? - this will create a new infolib.dat with data added

Yes, and I checked with ttdt, the info is in the file... I figgured out, when I exchange the r4patch.dat it load fast at first, after slow... when I change again the r4patch.dat the first load again fast...but the other isn't. I tried everyting...I don't know what did I wrong.

It load fast until about 80% then stuck and I have to wait for minutes.
