GATEWAY ULTRA v3.6 PUBLIC BETA
Posted on December 23, 2015


Merry Christmas Y’all! Team GATEWAY is back with a nice update for our loyal userbase to enjoy!

Today we present GATEWAY ULTRA v3.6! Read on for more info on the new functionality..
But lets start with the full featurelist:

* Added in-game menu!
– Configure cheats (supports CIA and 3DS formats)
– Search for cheats
– RAM dumper
– Hex editor

* Improved game selection menu!
– Switch game language instantly
– Switch between classic mode and Gateway mode instantly
– Handy SYSNAND/EMUNAND indicator
– Smooth and fluid movements

* Improved cheats!
– More memory (x4!)
– Repeat code Cxxxxxxx fixed

In our last release we gave you a taste of our new cheat engine, today we take it a step further by
putting cheat hacking capabilities in YOUR hands! We’ve added a way of overriding the language auto
detection for games which has been requested a lot! We also got a request to increase the available cheat space,
so we quadrupled it! This should give plenty of space!

You can press the UP key in the game selection menu to get a list of options which allow you to
set the mode and language as well as the activator key you want to use for our brand new in-game menu!

The in-game cheatmenu offers all kinds of exciting functionalities for cheaters and aspiring
hackers. There’s a classic “cheat search” which allows you to scan for 8, 16, 32 bit
values (both signed and unsigned) and lets you select various conditions (greater than, less than,
equal, exact value, etc.) to narrow the number of possible memory locations. Like magic, within
minutes you will be able to find the memory address that holds the player’s lifes and directly
edit the memory from the in-game cheat menu! If that’s not enough, advanced cheat hackers can directly
enter the hex editor and hack away at writable memory regions at will.

Furthermore you can create RAM dumps to the microSD card in the Gateway Red card if you plan to do analysis of these on
your computer rather than use our cheat finder. The format for the dumps files is as follows:
* 32 bit header with number of memory mappings (mapcount)
* mapping info objects [int vaddr, int paddr, int size] (12byte per entry)
* data for each mapping, stored consecutively

Note that most of the ingame functionality requires the Gateway Red card and a microSD with some writable space available
for temporary memory storage.
As always, enjoy! There’s still much more to come! Support the true innovators!

Cool! So what does the Hex Editor do exactly?

Edit: Oh I see now. It says in the OP. :P

Still no:
- mset booting on Old 3DS on 6.x+
- *hax booting with a .3dsx
- themehax booting
- retail cartridge support while in Brickway mode (for SaveDataFiler)
- true 6.x+ save crypto

These would be much better features.
Was just about to post this. That they still expect old3ds users to launch browser-only is inexcusable.

Confirmed working with O3DS + NTR CFW 2.4.

I tried it with Stella Glow, I changed language, set the ingame menu with L+R, and in the game I can still use X+Y for the NTR cheat plugin and L+R for the Gateway Cheat menu, they both work together.

It looks like they have retail cartridge support in Gateway mode, and with support for the true 6.x+ save crypto?

Tests have to be done.
Have tested to choose "Classic Sysnand", then back with B, choose a ROM and the ROM didn't load, like in SYSNAND :P

No sure what to expect with other mode in GW mode.

More waiting for a cheat archives with a lot of games :D

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

how do you get the in game cheat menu to pop up?

Open GW menu with select, then press UP on the pad.
Choose your combo (SELECT+START or L+R).
Launch a game, then press your combo.

Anyone tried this for super smash bros to change the language in it to japanese to see if you still keep your dlc and game save?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Also wanted to see if it was ok to update to this from 3.4.1?

You can scratch that off your list. Was able to use savedatafiler with Smash cart while sigs were patched (in Emunand 10.3)

I'm fairly sure you can get the DS Profile exploit working on O3DS >6.X if you just manually install the old settings CIA. I mean, I don't see why you couldn't.
And "true" >6.X crypto is available... on >6.X.

The other three things... I totally agree.

Fuck cheats, I really couldn't care less. I'd much rather have themehax booting or SDF working properly (but lack of card1 SDF is less of a concern with NTR 3).

Does anybody know the difference between these options?
Classic Sysnand
Classic 7x -
Classic 7x +

It appears the cheat menu has some bugs. The hotkey just slows the game down in the cia version of Shovel Knight but worked on the ROM lol. Cool feature though.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
