Hacking NDSTokyoTrim - batch trimmer with wifi detection

[Tony_92]

I'm also in 32bit vista, works fine here. Are you using a non-admin account?

Nope, I'm using admin account.

try the 64-bit compatible one, linked in my site below the normal one

I tried to download this file on your website but avast refuse to download it because it's a virus??

What happen with this file please? Is it a know problem?

Thanks, that did it! I wonder why the 64bit works but not 32bit.

 

[BrianTokyo]

it's not really a 64-bit build, it's still 32. The "64" one loads the DLLs dynamically from disk, while the 32 one has them embedded in the exe and loads them straight to memory. Maybe you have some antivirus that finds that practice suspicious or something

Yes, Avast sucks. Info here [url=http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=33829.0]http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=33829.0[/url]

Nice to see you're still making updates for this!

 

[BrianTokyo]

Of course, need to keep it on top

GBA trimming really sucked. (Maybe still does, I have no 3-in-1 thingie to try, but I'm quite possitive it's ok now)

 

[Shidori]

Thanks Brian for the link. Who is the morron that reported your file as a virus? Or maybe avast just sucks like you said lol...

 

[BrianTokyo]

Avant just sucks. There's some multiple test in which 4 different AV's detected something, 2 were only possible matches, 2 (avast one of them) thought it was a virus. I already sent them a sample so they update their database.

Avant just sucks.

Don't blame Avast, blame your own code!

You built in code in this trimmer so that, when unpacked, it reboots windows without asking permission.
This is typical Trojan behaviour.

 

[BrianTokyo]

You don't make any sense at all, it's a simple call to a well documented API function which thousands of other programs use. Maybe learn some programming and you'll understand how lame what you just said is.

The reboot call is made when some variable conditions are met, which could even be a manual click in a menu like windows itself does by pressing a button.

 

[BrianTokyo]

Alright, I tried removing the reboot routine completely from the code and scanned it again, the lame Avast still identified it as some other virus. So come up with better reasoning next time you talk without having a clue how antivirus work and about false possitives.

Just ignore him Brian. At least you are trying to get the issue resolved with Avast. I just downloaded your proggy. I'll try it out and your work is appreciated.

 

[Satangel]

Tnx for the work, the 64bit version works like a charm here!

 

[BrianTokyo]

This thread is kinda dying lately since people are no longer moaning about the anime background.. boring.. maybe I should lock it again

 

[arctic_flame]

Or just ask for a sticky...

Or have a nude backgrond

New version up with SRAM Patching for GBA roms.

Thanks to FAST6191 and TolleyDave from http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=60168 for the very useful info about this.

Please note that this is experimental and all theorical, I have no way to really test it without a 3-in-1 thingie to play GBA games, so please post about any errors.

 

[jesterscourt]

Man setup a paypal so we can donate to get you a 3 in 1 they are only 20 quid.

Anyhow, is SRAM patching even required anymore now that GBAExLOADER does it on the fly?

 

[BrianTokyo]

I've had a paypal button both in the website and right in the trimmer itself for ages (got a total of 7 euro from 2 donors, both users from this site )

GBAExlo... err, no clue about that
