Since not many people know how to make their own NDS cheatfiles in txt format for individual games, here is an example.
using any text editor and enter data in this format:


Game ID: ABCD 12345678

[code name1]
code1

[code name 2]
code 2

[end]

then save the text file with any name you like

Note: the 1st line is the game id of the game, it could be enter as
Game ID: ABCD 12345678
or
Game ID: ABCD
or just
:ABCD

Nice work man.

I didn't know .txt files would work this easy, it was taking ages to create .xml files...

 

[dsrules]

It's as easy as it could get..Anybody could do it

 

[kaisai]

I'm rather surprised that no one maintains an up-to-date cheat database.

I followed your instruction but it only work for the first code I put in. Other codes does not appear on code selection screen. Is there any separator I need to put between code?

 

[dsrules]

as u can see in the example, separate each code with brackets [ ]
sometimes the last code on the list might not show up on the list, add something at the end of the file

like
[end]

I get a screen with all the cheats that i made listed but it wont let me enable any of them.
Any suggestions?

How do you find out the game id??

*is it possible to do this with GBA games??*

I do ;p


At any rate, theres a limit to the size of the cheat file. I believe its 3-4 megs before the cheats stop working or start acting screwy. So its great for a few games but not for a ton of games basically.

 

[mxnl1090]

Please help! I really want to use this method to get some good fire red cheats but its just not working for me

 

[dsrules]

post an example of your list of codes in the txt file, let me see if there's something wrong with it

i dont have a game ID because its a GBA game (pkmn fire red) and GBA games don't have game IDs or i don't know how to find out what it is. Thanks for taking a look.
ps: I use brackets when i make the text document, but i used parentheses here because i wasn't sure how to make bracketed words with out the site thinking i was trying to use bb code.

 

[dsrules]

the tutorial is for creating a txt cheat file for NDS game only, not for GBA

'Twas certainly a curious 'statement' coming from a not so n00bish member, but this board is frustratingly choc-a-bloc full of them
