Gecko dotNET Bugs and Requests

I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but I noticed that if you switch to the MemView in Gecko.NET without changing the address it only shows 80000000 00010203 04050607 08090A0B 0C0D0E0F.

Interesting. I'll go try and freeze the game with auto-update and see this workaround in action.

You have to connect your gecko first XD. That's the column headers.

Oh wow.  That is actually mega helpful.

Do you remember what memory range you were trying to dump?  Was it something like 9014AB__?

yes, it was a mem90 address lol
You´re right... :P

Here´s a code sending freeze issue:

If I send any code *before* pressing A on the main screen of Yugioh 5D´s Duel Transer, it freezes up when one presses A to start.

I tried to use the same codes with gct, worked fine.
Sending the code(s) *after* pressing A on title screen, worked fine.

It´s therefore definetely not a code fail.

Take a look at the crash function (note that this address always pops up, doesn´t matter through which code it froze)

It´s not the only game, where sending legit codes crashes.
You may messed something up, as you fixed the C2/C0 codessending?
It only occures on the current gecko.net.

That´s my guess, what´s wrong with it.

[dcx2]

Are you using any GCT Code Undo lines?

Does it happen if send codes with none of the checkboxes enabled?

You're positive it worked in 0.66.5 and fails in 0.66.6?

Can you name other games where this happens?

I'm assuming you're using cfg usb = 1931 handler.

That crash isn't happening in the code handler.  Something is screwing up the game.  If you have no codes enabled, and you delete all the GCT Code Undo lines, then it should do nothing.

[Bully@Wiiplaza]

Are you using any GCT Code Undo lines? # no

Does it happen if send codes with none of the checkboxes enabled? # idk yet...

You're positive it worked in 0.66.5 and fails in 0.66.6? # it at least worked with very old builts like rev93 (and 0.66.5 I think)

Can you name other games where this happens? # yes, it happens on e.g. black ops, when sending a button activated code that wasn´t enabled yet (= button not pressed) -> game crashed

I'm assuming you're using cfg usb = 1931 handler. # correct

That crash isn't happening in the code handler.  Something is screwing up the game.  If you have no codes enabled, and you delete all the GCT Code Undo lines, then it should do nothing. # any code screws it up, same crash bp each time

[Stuff]

idk if this is a bug, or maybe I'm doing it wrong. I set a XBP at the start of some asm function because that's what the write breakpoint took me to. (Looking for monster awareness). write bp on 9014BD7C takes you to 80130788 and a XBP on 80130788 takes you to 80130788. >.>. Maybe I'm doing it wrong.

Does it happen if send codes with none of the checkboxes enabled?

Just sent codes with no codes on my list. didn't freeze. Can't really focus right now and it's not like I'm hacking yugioh, so that wasn't much help. I wanted to see what Bully was experiencing. I'll grab some codes later.Sent 0409A924 386329E0(just took some random address and made a gct code from it. did say any code screws it up) and pressed a. nothing happened. Does going back after pressing a count? Maybe it's your version? I have the US release.

Now that I wanted the game to freeze, it doesn't >.>. I left on 5 quests. It usually freezes on one of the 1st 2.

Code search bug:
Searching in range 90 is not possible....

If you change 80 to 90 is shows:

Start: 90000000     End: 90000000

I've tried to change the End: 90000000 to 91000000 but it's still red. If you start search, it shows all address with the value 00000000

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/38/71133514.png/

BTW on the picture, I actually set "unknown value" and not specific....

[dcx2]

Gecko.NET prevents you from accessing MEM2 in GameCube mode (which normally would cause a crash).  Looks like it's accidentally protecting a channel, too?  I'll load a channel to try it out.

[Deathwolf]

It's the Mii channel. But I think there is no mem 90  :o

[dcx2]

I had no problem loading searches.  I did the following.

1) load Super Mario Galaxy RMGE01 with Gecko OS 1931.
2) search for 32-bit not-equal to 0
3) search for not-equal to last search (1)
4) Save history as RMGE01.srh
5) Quit Gecko.NET and open a new instance
6) Load history RMGE01.srh
7) It takes a few seconds, but eventually it loads everything.

XD. The history function is bootleg though. I know you've explained it like 3 times already, but sometimes, it's like, "wut?"

How about this.  Now you can double click an addresstextbox to save it in the history and see the whole history.  You can scroll through them with up/down arrows, too.

Underneath the address box is a nice spot. But I see what you mean. increasing the window's size would make the other tabs bootleg. You could shrink the source dropdown cuz it doesn't look like it needs more space than "Open Dump...". And then...well it's hard to say remove the source label...it was so you can fit auto update there. But that needs that elbow room for it to show dps. idk. Do whatever whenever.

I've rearranged the memview tab to make some more room.  I'll see what I can do about making a multiply/add offset control.

write bp on 9014BD7C takes you to 80130788 and a XBP on 80130788 takes you to 80130788. >.>. Maybe I'm doing it wrong.

That sounds correct.  A Write BP is used to find the instruction which is writing to some memory address.  Read BP is used to find some instruction which is reading from a memory address.  There can be many different instructions that can read or write to one address, and this can be used to find all of them.

An Execute BP is used to freeze the game when an instruction is executed.  It will always freeze it on the same instruction, but it won't freeze it until the CPU executes that instruction.  There can be many different memory addresses that are written to or read by a single instruction, and this can be used to find all of them.

[Stuff]

hmm.. Might be a mh3 thing? XD. Guess it's not such a big deal. Searches do load if I have results open already. Nothing I can't live with.
Less bootleg history, I see. :Thumbs up:
o.O. You made a lot of room. Have any other plans for all that space? Looks like moving "View" and "Source" wasn't even necessary. But I like the new spot.

Oh. I  thought XBP would take you to some other function that's about to execute that asm. I was hoping to find something else to nop. nop'ing the sth(I think it was) had the same effect a 00 code had, which wasn't what I wanted. But the sth was at the beginning of the function, and I was hoping to find something else that calls this function.

Just used search in memview for the first time. It's awesome but is there a way to search backwards or make it loop back to the beginning?

2 things(There was 3, but I forgot the 3rd):
1) Does the exisendbyteAA protection take up addition code space? I just finished reducing my codelist to avoid crashes when I connect the gecko. And now I had to do that again. >.<. If so,  how many lines does it occupy? And you get exception error when it freezes like this. Don't think I got that before.

2) After a few exception errors, I wasn't able to switch out of the search tab. It would instead highlight the data type dropdown. It was weird and retarded and I don't think I can reproduce this bug. I think the exception errors had to do with it because you can either quit or continue, and I kept continuing. But who knows.

[dcx2]

re: search tab, you can make it dump a sliver (like 80000000 to 80001000) just to get something loaded without having to wait long.

re: history, the real slick thing is to use the arrow keys to "scroll" through the selected address history and watch memview update in real time.  The disassembler history can also scroll through and update in real time.

re: plans for space, I was thinking a sort of history snapshot memory sortof thing too.  Maybe a search up option.  Maybe make it loop.

When it comes to memview search, you should also check out the Hex search mode.  You can also shift-click a cell to add its contents to the hex search; very useful for porting codes between regions.

re: finding callers, at a breakpoint go to disasm tab and double click call stack and you'll be able to navigate along...mostly.  It gets a little glitchy in areas where the compiler might have gotten frisky.  Also, you could ask your question in Wii Game Hacking Help.  Hit the breakpoint, get a copy of the registers into a spoiler, and go to disasm on the breakpoint address and Copy Function that into a spoiler, maybe even a copy of the Call Stack too just in case, then tell me what it is you're trying to do, and what values you think are in what registers.

re: exisendbyteAA crashing, I think what happened is that

a) memview autoupdate asks for a dump
b) Wii game starts loading something from disc just before it sees the dump request
c) Wii game takes forever to load something from disc, ignoring dump request for a long time
d) Gecko.NET thinks something went wrong and asks for another dump
e) Code handler gets to run, sees "dump", gets ready for the address, and the second "dump" gets considered to be part of the address.  Crash.

So anything that would result in ignoring the code handler for a long time could cause a problem, with these timeouts.  I could extend the timeout but sooner or later it could still be...bootleg.  So I made sure to drain the input buffer of any commands before trying to receive the address.

Yes, this patch takes up additional space.  I think I may be off a line or two.  Gecko OS 1931 has the smallest code handler I've seen, as well.

But if you're running out of code space you should be using the extended code list.  As per the following thread, make a RMHE08.gct file with the following code, and only this code; it must be applied as a gct with SD cheats.  Then, when you connect to the game, you should get about 4,000 code lines or so instead of the measly 200-ish.  It works on most games that it's been tested on so far.

re: exception errors...."after a few"?  You shouldn't be having any.  What are you doing that generates exceptions?

[Stuff]

re: search, I can also cancel a search. I get a few pages of results no matter how fast I cancel.

re: memview search, yeah I checked it out cuz I noticed it was in hex mode by default now. That shift click is very nice.

re: finding callers, alright. I'll do that and post in Wii Game Hacking Help. Just posted here cuz I thought it might've been a bug.

re: extended code list, I didn't want to do that yet because then I have to switch gcts whenever I go from playing<->hacking. But I should give it a try.

re: exception errors: I tried connecting the gecko with a full code list 3 or 4 times. Continuing each time. I got another exception error trying to load a search, and then after that I couldn't switch out of the tab. I can't imagine anything else that would cause that.

[dcx2]

re: extended code list, technically you don't *have* to use a gct.  If you pause-start the game, and then send cheats the Allocate Extended Codes, it should also work.

[Bully@Wiiplaza]

great new built, it fixed the gct slowdown, the exception if one tries to save codes when the games has crashes and so on :eek:
