Hacking Misc GBA [RELEASE] Sleep and Hard Reset patches for GBA games with custom button combinations

[Asdolo]

This is a Sleep Patch & Hard Reset patching tool for GBA ROMs.

The assembly code of the patch itself is a fork of Dwedit's sleephack with a refactor for including a cleaner way to configure both Sleep and Wake-up button combinations, as well as a configurable Hard Reset patch.

Note that it doesn't work with all games. You'll have to test it by yourself!

Check Readme file for more information.

Hi. Is this tool able to bake sleep mode into FFTA? I've tried Ultimate GBA and NSUI and both dont work...

I'm a little freaked out that you've asked about the exact same game I'm having issues with.
Ziedriche, did you ever find a solution for the issue?

Hey Asdolo. I know that you aren't working on NSUI anymore, but i have a Porblem with Beta 28. The Footer is not showing up when having installed the CIA on the 3DS. I wanted to ask if that was a known bug, or if im doing something wrong?

Too bad Advance Wars, Super Circuit, and Grunty's Revenge still don't work with this new patch. Couldn't get FFTA, DKC1 and 2, PMD Red Rescue Team, MMBN3 (both versions), and MM Zero 1-4 working either

On the bright side, Boktai 2 works now lol
