This is a plugin for NTR CFW that allows you to navigate through the memory region used by a process. It was initially made for studying purpose.

Note: This is obsolete, use CTRPluginFramework instead.

Installation

Decompress the archive in your SD's root.

Then you launch NTR CFW and in the menu you'll see RAM Explorer.

User guide

So, you choose a process and you can see all the data stocked in memory (search mode is not implemented).

Also, it's a home plugin, so you can still have your cheats plugins and it doesn't shutdown the network function.

Process dumper

It will dump the chosen process into: "SD:/dump/ramdump.bin". Be sure to create the dump folder or you will have an error.

This dumper will read and write from 0x0 to 0x20000000. Theoretically the end file can be used in soft like TempAR for finding pointer (can be useful to cheats creator).

The dumper do not delete the file if previously existed, it'll just write on it, so be careful to export/rename it before doing another dump.

Controls

Up - Top address -8 (go up)

Down - Top address +8 (go down)

Circle Pad Down/Up - Go down/up quickly

C-Stick Down/X - Go down very very quickly (+= 0x1000)

Compatibility

Only tested on N3DS.

Known issues

If you have bugs with edit mode, exemple it doesn't write the change.

Check the following:

  • Connect the 3DS to a ntr debugger (Modded or Original);
  • Try again to write the change, checkthe debugger, you should have some infos in why it's not working.

If you have no useful infos or if you have bugs with an other function, post it, if i can't help you i'll provide you a full debug version of the plugin.

Changelog

v1.2.5 Beta

  • Correcting the progress display on the process dumper, the modification of this function broke the progress bar in the previous version.

v1.2.4 Beta

  • The memory used by the plugin have been lessened, fixing the fact that the plugin was preventing the browser to be launched (at least on N3DS, don't know for O3DS).
  • Improved the keypad accuracy in address mode and editor mode.
  • Fix a bug in the Dumper process which was causing a data loss (but we now dump / write with a block of 0x4000 instead of 0x10000).
  • Changing the way the dumper will write the data:
    • Adding the same header as Gateway's header in the ramdump, allowing to write only the region with data (made without gateway's ramdumps to study so can be not exactly the same, but it works).
    • The file will see the size shortened so there is two benefits:
      • The dump is a bit faster.
      • The file being lighter, it's faster to send it through FTP.
    • To expand the file for using a soft like TempAR and find pointer, use the tool by @xJam.es.

v1.2.3 Beta

  • Fix dynamic memory allocation on o3DS (Thanks to @David Rico for his debug support).
  • Do not show memory region with state 0x02 (IO) as they make the 3DS freeze.
  • Re*implement X & Y key as C*Stick replacement.
  • Seems that I've corrected the freeze possibility but we need more test, please report if you have freeze using the plugin.
  • Transformed the progress bar in a touchObject. So you can now navigate in the region through the progress bar. Even if it's not really accurate, it's still faster to go in the middle or else than scrolling.

v1.2.1 Beta

  • Fix address mode display.
  • Fix keys which I forgot when i've updated the HID.
  • Fix B in address mode do not leave the plugin anymore.
  • Implementation of dynamic memory management.
  • Fix memory leaks.

v1.2 Beta

  • Implement all HID (C*Stick, CPAD, Touchscreen).
  • Implement the possibility of writing on the top screen.
  • Changed key according to the implementation of HID.
  • Implemented a really basic process dumper (to a file).
  • Implemented touchObject;
  • Made a lot of change in the code.
  • Maybe other things I have forgotten about.

v1.1.1 Beta

  • Added a progress bar to see the position in the region.

v1.1 Beta

  • Added Edit mode.
  • Added Pointer mode.
  • Changed some keys.
  • Added some fail safe.
  • Added cancel in Address mode.
  • Extended the maximum region from 20 to 100.
  • Can now show 0x1000 length region.
  • Do not show "free memory" stated region.
  • Dynamically interpret the memory, less memory used, useful to edit mode.
  • Other code stuffs and improvements.

v1

  • Initial release.
