    Well, if your firmware is English, your cheats should be English, you can try adding your own cheats to the database file. Is there some sort of .dat, .xml, .0, etc. file in your firmware somewhere?

    i found this in TTmenu(folder) reset.mse system.ank system.l2u system.u2l
    are any of these the cause of japanese cheats?
    on my old flashcart version only some of the games had cheats and it was in english
    when i updated it almost all of the games had cheats
    maybe i need to update my firmware again?
    or do i have to patch it like a game into english?

    most of the the titles of the cheats in here( a bold + sign inside a square) when you go inside its english but only some. for example pokemon diamond

    1015U- (some japanese characters)
    when i go inside here>>>1284E- (some japanese characters) its english
    and here>>>>>>>>>>>>1284U- (some japanese characters)its english
    1015U has english only inside select item select medicine select ball select nature and event modifier i think

    maybe 70% of the words in cheats are japanese

    and where do i get a better cheat database?

    No, you shouldn't need to patch to get English cheats, you can try using the database at http://www.cheats.gbatemp.net/, not sure if that will work or not. Make sure to backup all your original cheat file before overwriting it with the new named one. Also, you should be able to use an older firmware's cheat file and put cheats on it, and make it still work with the new firmware.

    Basically I'm meaning, download the older firmware version, and use the cheat file provided with that and use it with your current newer firmware (which still should work, and if in English).

    my older firmware lacks cheats
    i need these cheats translated

    Try going to my "How to Add Cheats to R4", it uses the same principle as the DSTT, so I'm sure you could figure out something. Or try editing your own cheat file in your firmware.

    HOW do i edit my cheats?
    and can you give me a direct link to the translations to my cheats?
    and if by edit you mean deleting then copying like a document i can do that

    No, not deleting them, overwriting etc., but editing the actual values and text inside the cheat file. Try going to http://www.cheats.gbatemp.net/, I'm pretty sure the database works with DSTT.

    this link is the translation of my japanese cheats right?
    i dont want to use my old firmwares cheats cause they lack cheats
    and can i just delete and copy it manually like a document?
     
  14. anandjones

    anandjones Well-Known Member

    No, it's not the translation, it's a completely new cheat file which is kept up to date with the latest ROM AR codes. You should be able to rename this file and overwrite the cheat file in your firmware.

    ok i think i know how to overwrite my cheats by now but what will i rename?
    the japanese cheats to english cheats or the title?

    Don't have to rename anything, the cheats and the names are ALL in English, so nothing needs changed.
