ROM Hack Game botting with ntr ?

[hacksn5s4]

So I've seen these Pokemon shiny hunting bots on YouTube they use motors to press the buttons but could you use ntr to put inputs from the bot into the game from a pc and have it read ram to see if moms shiny or not I just want this for fun

 

[QCLasky]

I don't get it.. you want to see if moms can shine?



I dont know if this is what you are looking for:

some thing like this but instead of using a machine that presses the buttons on the 3ds send inputs to the 3ds

Depends on how the inputs are handled.
But the console has to get the mechanical inputs into a code acceptable. So somewhere the oressed key has to be stored. By writing to that part you could effectively emulate a button press.
Then you just do this like a macro in a while loop with chained presses. In between it can even read out data and check foe specific requirements.

and you could make it read the ram to know if the mons shiny only problem is sending inputs to the 3ds over wifi one guy has done it but its not released theres this write up of sending inputs though wifi http://douevenknow.us/post/139673444953/redirecting-3ds-input-over-wifi

Yes it's possible to inject inputs through a plugin.

I've posted a working code in the thread for the NTR Debugger with Gateshark support.

You just have to program your bot and use the previously mentioned code for injecting the inputs.

Thing is though I need away for it to read the ram so the bot knows what it's doing it needs to know when it encounters a mon needs to know if it's shiny or not

 

[Nanquitas]

Read the ram is easy, but you need to know where to read and what is the value you're waiting for...

 

[hacksn5s4]

Thing is what does it need to be coded in

 

[Nanquitas]

If your speaking about the programming language, then you need to program the plugin in C (or C++).

 

[hacksn5s4]

Are you planning to make some thing like this as well

 

[Nanquitas]

I don't understand your question...

If you're asking me about making a bot for a shiny hunting then no I won't.

I don't mind helping with the mechanics of the bot, but there's no way I'm taking time to find where are the information we need in the ram.
I don't need that, and I'm not even playing this game...

I ment like for imputing into the 3ds

 

[Nanquitas]

I already gave the functions needed for that in an other thread, but I'll paste them in it.

I wish more people knew about this think of all the boys that could be made

if you want to bot to get shiny pokemon why not just use pkhex and make one that passes a legality check? That way you're not killing your battery and you still get what you want, if you're willing to spend this much effort to get random ones you can expend significantly less and have whatever you want, still able to battle online.

So here the code I thought about based on ctrulib's HID implementation:

#define BIT(x) (1 << x)


/* hidSharedMem can be 0x10000000, 0x10001000, 0x10002000 (maybe even 0x10003000 but didn't see the case until now)
** the address can be different between games
** I don't know for now how to retrieve it automatically so you must define the good one manually
*/
vu32    *hidSharedMem = (u32 *)0x10002000;
u32      kDown = 0;

enum
{
    KEY_A       = BIT(0),       ///< A
    KEY_B       = BIT(1),       ///< B
    KEY_SELECT  = BIT(2),       ///< Select
    KEY_START   = BIT(3),       ///< Start
    KEY_DRIGHT  = BIT(4),       ///< D-Pad Right
    KEY_DLEFT   = BIT(5),       ///< D-Pad Left
    KEY_DUP     = BIT(6),       ///< D-Pad Up
    KEY_DDOWN   = BIT(7),       ///< D-Pad Down
    KEY_R       = BIT(8),       ///< R
    KEY_L       = BIT(9),       ///< L
    KEY_X       = BIT(10),      ///< X
    KEY_Y       = BIT(11),      ///< Y
    KEY_CPAD_RIGHT = BIT(28),   ///< Circle Pad Right
    KEY_CPAD_LEFT  = BIT(29),   ///< Circle Pad Left
    KEY_CPAD_UP    = BIT(30),   ///< Circle Pad Up
    KEY_CPAD_DOWN  = BIT(31),   ///< Circle Pad Down

};

u32 hidCheckSectionUpdateTime(vu32 *sharedmem_section, u32 id)
{
    s64 tick0 = 0;

    if (id==0)

        id = 7;
    if (hidCheckSectionUpdateTime(hidSharedMem, id) == 0)
        kDown = hidSharedMem[10 + id * 4];

    for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)
        rtCheckRemoteMemoryRegionSafeForWrite(getCurrentProcessHandle(), (u32)hidSharedMem + (10 + i * 4),  4);

Because it would not be legit and it's fun to watch

it would be legit though, if it passes a legitimacy test then it is legit, regardless of if it's obtained in game or not in game. It just seems like an extra length to go for not much payoff.
