ROM Hack USUM IPS Patches

[Rya102396]

That one is slightly different but I believe you change the 2D 00 58

Okay, I don't get this at all... I guess I gotta wait for the different percent shiny patches to be done, that's all I want now.

it's not just -4 bytes.

check my post in gateway cheat.
i will update ips after I finish gateshark.

So it seems that it's not just a -4 byte change...

I checked what you edit all I could see was you edited one byte

B8 to B4 so I figured it must be the same for the rest turns out I was mostly correct.

you also need to change the jump code.

I'm guessing you got Ultra Moon and Ultra Sun ROMs and searched for what to change that way?

Nah I just took the IPS for Ultra Moon and yours and put them side by side and saw only one change so pretty much I just guessed.

Here's some Ultra Sun patches I've included the no outlines one for the people who want more than just no outlines
You can still use the buildtool of course.

I can confirm the instant message and no outlines work, the QR Code one doesn't though...it crashes and as for the Disable NFC I didn't try it

Jump code? The patch works, though?

Yeah figures some of them wouldn't work.

 

[Sonansune]

you need to understand what the code does.
otherwise, simply change the offset -4 or -8 won't work.

Oh! I get it now. The no outlines one was just luck on my part, then?

not the only one, some of them works like that, cuz it doesn't have jump code.
you can try exp multiplier ips. which has jump code.

Can't Wait

 

[AyanamiRei0]

Anyway I'll leave all this stuff to the people that know what they are doing.

I only did the no outlines one because that's the one I've used when playing Sun and Ultra Moon.

SciresM's QR Code patch is working on ultra moon only

[SciresM]

Yeah. I'm almost entirely sure ultra sun won't work because of the code being offset, but I can fix that soon enough.

 

[Sonansune]

does the asm code changed alot for the patch from SM to USUM?

I tried to port the patch before, but afraid it won't work.

The ASM changes were actually very minimal!

I changed the address in .bss where I store my scratch data from 0x6A1080 to 0x667180.

I also changed two reads of data off the stack to read 0x10 higher, since the stack frame for QR scanning was increased from 0x8C to 0x9C in size.

I also changed the offset to box data from the start of the SaveData::BOX struct in memory (accessed via the gfl singleton GetInstance() stuff).

Basically none of the meat of the code had to be altered

(rather obvious) Mini-PSA: S/M PKHeX QR Codes will NOT work with UM's QR Code patch, they'll register, but the game will crash upon entering the PC/saving
