Hacking Need help with in-game text reader.

[Canonbeat234]

Before people stare at me like I hadn't done research yet, then look I'm not into homebrew or any media stuff. I'm into playing my NDS and GBA games and that's it! What I want to do before my younger brother comes back from Jamaica with his dad; I want to learn how to read GameFAQ's from the text reader on my CycloDS. I did read some topics that are related to text reading however I took its advice and nothing happen. For example I did type the same thing like it told me too for a file name.

"2495 - Final Fantasy IV (U)_trim" NDS Rom
"2495 - Final Fantasy IV (U).txt" Game txt file

without the parenthesis of course, when I tried to read from the game its 'grayed out' so I don't know if its some homebrew tool I need or some application I didn't download. I'm only asking for help in full detail so I won't have to ask again in such an urgency.

use the SAME NAME, like save and RTS files
ie:
2495 - Final Fantasy IV.nds
2495 - Final Fantasy IV.txt
2495 - Final Fantasy IV.sav
2495 - Final Fantasy IV.rts

nds ROM file
txt text file
sav save file
rts Real time save file

If your game is named
2495 - Final Fantasy IV (U)_trim.nds
your faq would be
2495 - Final Fantasy IV (U)_trim.txt
"_trim" is part of the name to if its on your card that way

Okay I got it to work but I notice the letters are too small, and some of the words are running together so I can't read the next word before going to the next line. Is this normal, if so then how can I fix this?

i think there is a tool but the CycloDS forms are down, so i dont know where to get it

Does GBATemp have the tool inside its directory?

 

[budrow66]

CycloEdit Pro Is a user made program that has a word wrap tool in it. Plenty of other goodies to.
There is another one its on gbatemp somewhere i think its called wordwrap or something like that but it is a java app and some folks cant make it work (like me).

I'm assuming that LineBreaker is what you mean...

 

[budrow66]

Thats it. Thanks xist.

line breaker is fun
do you need a copy?

 

[budrow66]

I would like a copy if you could. I need to take another bash at makeing it work.

Yes. YES I DO NEED COPY. The CycloEdit Pro is just another an application that complicate things. I can't even use txt reader after I finish using the application!

Linebreaker

 

[budrow66]

Thanks Raven Darkheart. I actually got it to work this time and its much better than the deployment tool in CycloEdit Pro.

LineBreaker won't fix the small font though.
