[N64] The Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask [NARE]

[James0x57]

If you just got Gecko OS 1.9.1, make sure under "Config Options" that "SD Cheats" is set to "YES".

Well, nvm, if other games work then that's not the problem. I dunno man.

(well, I'm using the Default Hook Type.. maybe you changed it and it's not working?)

No?

The "run asm code" area creates the pointer to the asm I hijack with the insert asm part. I posted in the hacker's area a "pointer creator", that's what the "run asm code" is.

30000000 7274FF79 //Checks if value @ Po is Equal to 7274FF79 (on water?)
that checks if the pointer is correct by comparing it to what should be at that pointer.

The insert asm part is the actual walk on water programing.

Here's the details on that part:

This is what's actually in the game (it moves, though not very often)
54A5024E   rlwinm   r5,r5,0,9,7
90A30A54   stw   r5,2644(r3)

80A3015C   lwz   r5,348(r3)
90A70088   stw   r5,136(r7) #writes to the current ground level (only one that does so)
4800000C   b   0x80ae4298
60000000   nop   
60000000   nop   
80E300DC   lwz   r7,220(r3)
7CE74838   and   r7,r7,r9
7CE74214   add   r7,r7,r8

48000008   b   0x80ae42b0
60000000   nop   

stw r5,136(r7) is hijacked with the Jesus code (insert asm):

thanks :D

FINALLY! Finally there is someone who confirms that even the NTSC codes doesn't work on GeckoOS. I have the PAL version of Majora's Mask and its PAL codes doesn't work either. Me and 3 other guys already mentioned this before on this forum, but we only got to hear something like "Are you using a pirated copy?", "You're doing something wrong" or "Make sure you're using the newest GeckoOS and Code Manager version".
I'm so lucky that the hackers pay attention to this problem now. :)
Just like Solus I can confirm that all the codes for the other VC and WiiWare games I own are working. Majora's Mask is the only game yet where none of the codes are working using (of course the newest version of) GeckoOS.
They only seem to work using the debugger. Which is sad, because at the moment only hackers (or better said: USB Gecko owners) can enjoy those awesome codes that were made for such an awesome game. ;_;

I hope someone finds and takes the time to find a solution for this problem, so all the other code junkies who doesn't own an USB Gecko can enjoy the codes too. :)

[James0x57]

It doesn't make sense with the Jesus Mode code though; that should be working no matter what.. I'll do further testing to try and find a solution.

[SoLuS xX]

The PAL codes worked on my cousins Wii ( He got himself a pirated version but it turned out to be the PAL version and I did find out he got me a WAD'ed version :x ) On the channel view it says that Its rated E for cartoon violence. Is that normal?
Also I intend to stick with this version though because getting the original is hard due to the lack of Wii internet & current financial troubles. But I hope there is a solution because the one I have should be working with the Jesus code at least.
Thanks for the help guys

[R.H.]

Well, I bought my copy from the Wii Shop Channel. Maybe the original version has some sort of code protection? I don't know. -.-

[hetoan2]

hey James, What should you do if the ASM code moves?

I made one for a bomb timer stopper, but it should have worked on all bombs, and it did, but once I left the area the ASM moved >_<

do you think it would be easier to do pointers on the ASM or on the actual timer?

[GMO]

I got to make this a fact, i do NOT care if it's pirated or legitmate.
Load up GEcko Os, and load up the channel,  What is the Game ID that comes up?
I can help you then.

[James0x57]

hetoan2: I usually can't find a pointer to moving ASM. I created a thread in the Hackers area with a fair bit of ASM that will create a pointer to your ASM.

[SoLuS xX]

In the Gecko OS view it states: Zelda: Majora's (US)
Upon booting the game ID is: NARE

Other Random Facts:
* On the channel menu it states Rated Everyone for Cartoon Violence
* For Gecko OS It says that the codes are found and that it is applying them
* Gecko OS is as default, I didn't edit any settings
* My Wii Version is 4.0 (Though I have gone through every process to allow the rebooter and Gecko OS to work (Getting the IOS, downgrading etc)
* All other VC and Wii games work (I've tested MKW, SSBB, Ocarina of Time)


My text file looks like this:

****The file is fine. Codes removed.****

All codes belong to their respective hackers! (Sorry about the credits, didn't have any because I wanted to rush and enter the codes. I also did them through code manager instead of the text files so skipped over them.

[James0x57]

By default, Gecko OS has the setting "Use SD Cheats" set to "No"
You must, obviously, change that to "Yes"

[SoLuS xX]

Well by reading the rest of my post you'd also notice that it applied the codes meaning it was set to yes, whether I changed it without remembering or not. It searches for codes, it applies them and they work for every other game

[crazy brawler]

well i have the same problem so is there a way to make the code to work because just like him, none of them are working
