ROM Hack Pokemon HG/SS fix discussion

[Mana94]

Second theory..

When I crash with the DMA access of 8 bit

under this image

now with the 02260344
It listed 3 times :
Read below 0x8000 / / .

Now looking at the registers of the ARM9.
So my guess right now is if any of those three DMA0 go over 8 bits of information, the DMA1SAD add that 8 bit of information into it total and that causes the freeze.

Anyone gonna edit this
Sounds like the source of the AP problem!
If you want to see his pictures go back 1 page

I would, but my eyes hurt from before, and I gotta work D-:

On R4 with the newest YSMenu(The one updated in the post up there somewhere).
Don't work, 24 events and it did the black screen with music playing like before.
Was on HG, someone else will have to try SS.

same thing with SS, I just tried

If you guys have nothing to contribute to the thread, please stop posting.

I think you might be onto something, Souldragon. It sounds like that might be the source of our problems.

I laughed at this. Telling people who aren't contributing to stop posting, then not contributing yourself.

Anyway, I don't know much about anything when it comes to this sort of thing, so I should just stay clear of this topic until people figure it out, eh?

If you're running an AceKard2 or 2i on AKAIO 1.6, you're not gonna see any freezes. I've been playing an hour and a half without a freeze.

 

[Hero_Of_Fate]

Dude, we already know that. How many people do you think OWN an Acekard? A hell of a lot. Hell, I own one AND a CycloDS. By this point, we know what cards it works on and which ones it doesn't.

The two anti-piracy checks found so far involve reading from the addresses 040001A0 and 040000DC. The following code disables all checks in the game that read from those two addresses (though, not all of them might be anti-piracy checks). Try and see if it works.

[mameks]

nice one! any confirmations?

 

[Hero_Of_Fate]

I suppose I could try it.

This might take a while, I have a Cyclo so lots of running in and out of the Pokemon Center. The game boots just fine, though.

 

[Delta517]

I'll try it right away
