No problem, have fun.

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

Hmm, we should isolate the cheats that are making the crashs...

It's probably the pointers ones.
If the pointer changes and the address pointed at is not valid, it would crash the game...

it's mainly complicated ones like moon jump, run fast, refill health with button combo, and instant sword slash. also infinite epona carrots crashes it too. perhaps finding it for the US version directly instead of porting it would work? anyone with the US version could probably offer RAMdumps or even be taught where to look for the pointer codes and then give you the information to improve the plugin.
 
refill health shouldn't crash the game. :/

Others are dynamic, so I should try another pointer.
I'll try to do it soon, but I'll going on vacation for at least two weeks in two days so if someone want to do it, the sources are available on my github.

How to find the right pointer ?
1- Do a dump of the process with my plugin (RAMExplorer) or with a gateway and expand the dump;
2- Search for a value like the normal size of link (3 times the same 4 bytes) in cheat engine;
3- Restart the game and do another dump;
4- Search again the same value and keep the different adresses

Now with the tempAR software, search for pointer by specifying the addresses in each dump.
Try the pointers tempAR give to you in the plugin.

in my experience the game crashes when i use the button combination for refilling health but not when i activate it in the menu. wouldnt it be better to freeze health and magic instead of having to activate it every time to refill it?
 
Those code are from fort42. ;)

Now not all of the codes in fort42 are working, because there's a lot of codes which are dynamics and fort42 reference them as static.
I think the crashes mainly come from the pointer I choose to use, I'll try to check that today. ;)
 
Sorry guys but it won't be soon, you'll have to wait that I come back from my holiday.

But I promise that I'll work on it to prevent crashes and I'll do the Majora's Mask cheats too.

If you wanna try to fix it before, the sources are available on my github.

Moonjump cheat immediately crashes when pressing up on the dpad :cry: Literally the only cheat I cared about. Anyone have a fix?
