It's the same event; here's a screenshot of WC6 editor after I collected it: The card: (Code is used) I wonder if we might've seen each other at Waterway Point, heh.

I'm sure magical or someone else can figure out the RNG. If not we can find someone who knows ARM assembly.. if not I'll see what I can do. Method 1 should be easy: Packetlog the DS, then recreate that packetlog except screwing with the selected cipher. We'll need to see if Apache (I'm assuming the SSL part is HTTPS) works with it; if not we can try to write our own.

After doing more reading, I see what you mean - we figure out the premaster secret, and then just give the cert Nintendo uses.

The first way will never work (unless you use the hosts file to spoof the domain AND manage to get the DS to transmit unencrypted). The second way is more plausible but we still need to get past the problem of certificate.

My guess is that they do this: (as quoted from wikipedia) # The client may use the certificate authority's (CA's) public key to validate the CA's digital signature of the server certificate. If the digital signature can be verified, the client accepts the server certificate as a valid certificate issued by a trusted CA. # The client verifies that the issuing CA is on its list of trusted CAs. Nintendo or GameFreak would thus be the 'trusted CA'.

That would be pretty hard. We'd need to get a private key that matches the public key the DS has (either that or we figure out how to change the certificate in the ROM, but that would be pointless, since if you can load a hacked ROM, ...). (and no it's not possible to get a private key from a public key). Best chance we have is brute forcing the key. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security#Security. The DS<->GTS would fall under the first few applications there.

I think they communicate using the same protocol.

But if you have a flashcart then why not just dump the SAV file? And if it's on HGSS then you could trade a Pokemon over using a friend's DS and check it out.

If you have shared hosting, port 53 would be used as they need to host their own DNS server for everyone on that server there. Unless you have a dedicated IP, that's a different story.

Capitalise the last 'l' in my username. (i.e 'AngelSL'). Thanks.

Hi, fellow C# developer. It'd be easier if I could talk to you on MSN or IRC (something live) so you can respond instantly.. but.. Here, try this as a solution to 'havn't managed to stop the backgroundworker when it is waiting for a connection'. private void BGW_GTS_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e) { BGW_GTS.ReportProgress(1, "GTS started..."); Socket serv = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp); serv.SetSocketOption(SocketOptionLevel.Socket, SocketOptionName.ReuseAddress, 1); try { serv.Bind(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 80)); } catch (System.Net.Sockets.SocketException) { BGW_GTS.ReportProgress(1, "Server could not be started (Port 80 already used)"); return; } serv.Listen(50); List<Socket> clients = new List<Socket>(); SocketAsyncEventArgs saea = new SocketAsyncEventArgs(); bool readyToContinueAccept = true; EventHandler<SocketAsyncEventArgs> clientAccepted = (sendr, eventargs) => // True Async request handling. { readyToContinueAccept = true; // AcceptAsync finished. if (eventargs.SocketError != SocketError.Success) return; // did the AcceptAsync succeed? if not, quit. Socket client = eventargs.AcceptSocket; // get the new Socket (duh) ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem(si => { try { clients.Add(client); asyncReq(client); } catch { } finally { if (clients.Contains(client)) clients.Remove(client); client.Close(); } }); }; saea.Completed += clientAccepted; Action continueAccept = () => { saea.AcceptSocket = null; if (!serv.AcceptAsync(saea)) { // AcceptAsync completed synchronously, call ClientAccepted clientAccepted(null, saea); } }; while(true) { if(!BGW_GTS.CancellationPending) { if(readyToContinueAccept) // has the previous AcceptAsync finished? { // if yes, launch another readyToContinueAccept = false; continueAccept(); } // if not, wait 30 ms and check again } else { // cancellation pending break; // let's quit } Thread.Sleep(30); } foreach(Socket client in clients) { if(client.Connected) client.Close(); } serv.Close(); // this will call clientAccepted with saea.SocketError != SocketError.Success. It will do nothing. /*while (!BGW_GTS.CancellationPending) { SocketAsyncEventArgs saea = new SocketAsyncEventArgs(); saea. serv.AcceptAsync(new SocketAsyncEventArgs {}) Socket client = serv.Accept(); try { clients.Add(client); asyncReq(client); } catch { } finally { if(clients.Contains(client)) clients.Remove(client); client.Close(); // Because asyncReq just sends the response, and then returns, so might as well close the socket? } }*/ }

Following the previous 2 generations (III and IV), where I and II's first paired games (respectively) were remade, what is the possibility of Ruby/Sapphire being remade for Gen V? This may be the first generation where Kanto does not appear in the main series for that generation, should Black/White/<improved version> not include Kanto. It is also possible that the remakes of Gen I are remade again. If they are, then B/W/<improved version> would not need to include Kanto. However, I think this is extremely unlikely, either Kanto will appear in B/W/<improved version>, or Kanto will not appear at all. GF has already broken the pattern by releasing Gen V for the DS. It's also possible they break the pattern of Kanto appearing at least once in every generation. Comments?

I don't think BIND (at least I think that's what your host is using) allows you to specify CNAMEs for domains not in your domain's zone.

str.join was supposed to be commented out. Comment it out by appending a #

No, problem is the DS doesn't support CNAMEs probably. Did you do the fix I told you to try? If this doesn't work, putting it at your frontpage won't either as you don't have a dedicated IP.. (shared IP using virtual hosts) @Vlad I modified his script to return a CNAME instead of an IP. Theoretically it should work. Won't work, you also need the event flag set, not just the Key Item. (which is why there is a special wonder card type for each of the event items in DPPHGSS, and not just a 'Item')

I think I didn't do the CNAME properly or something. Or the DS just doesn't support CNAMEs. Try this: open dnsserver.py in WORDPAD. Find these lines: (line 57 & 58) packet+="\x00\x05\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x3c\x00\x16" packet+="\x03gts\x0Challoforigin\x03com\x00" Replace with packet+="\x00\x05\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x3c\x00\x18" packet+="\x03gts\x0Challoforigin\x03com\x01.\x00" Do NOT mess up the spaces. There should be 6 spaces behind the lines. Or else python will complain.

Vlad posted a PHP script you could use. http://projectpokemon.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=3930&d=1269817603 Your ISP isn't blocking 53 by the way, your forwarding has some problems. You could use that script on your webhost (on a subdomain), and have the simple DNS CNAME to that subdomain. Then have your friend set the DNS to you, and he'll get redirected to that script.

Firewall doesn't matter, you need to portforward. (unless you DMZ'd your computer) Portforward TCP&UDP 53 and TCP&UDP 80 to your LAN IP (I suggest setting your lan IP to static (in the DHCP reservation table)) That should fix it That isn't much help. Check if your IP is correct, try using your LAN IP, etc.. -end reply to quote- I might try to convert this into a PHP script ASP.NET and then PHP (so that you can use it on your webhost). You'll need to figure out how to redirect DNS, though. Python script won't work there.

You guys, why not install a full-fledged DNS server and redirect your DS there? Have the DNS server lookup the real DNS server (your ISP provides). So you can just replace <insert GTS domain here> while still being able to trade (normal, not GTS) without changing wifi settings every time? And for datoneguy, use the simple DNS script, and portforward TCP&UDP 53. Direct people to set their DNS server to your WAN ip.

I got that map_matrix stuff done. The extractor is here (exports to MediaWikicode.).

However! I'm not certain whether the file is supposed to be read by column or row, try both. Or derive it from my source ^ Anyway, we can see that the game uses their own internal name. An example is map03_27c which is Twinleaf town. If you extract land_data_release.narc and use "grep map03_27c *" to grep files containing that, you would see that only 1 file contains that aka the file containing Twinleaf's data. What we need to do now is to find where the game stores the map ID/intername/etc to real displayed name stringtable. The game could identify this by map ID, intername, or even index of the entry in land_data_release, or something else.

Deciphering data/fielddata/mapmatrix/map_matrix.narc in Diamond/Pearl's contents. I would appreciate it if anyone that has looked into it before provide their insight. And if you figured out the structure of the contents, I'd appreciate it if you could post it here. I do know the structure of a NARC file, I'm looking into the contents of the map_matrix.narc file. If Alpha reads this, SCV said that you might know more about map_matrix.narc's contents. Shoutout.

Well, doesn't seem anyone has made much progress..

I'm not too sure, this was a long time ago. But yes I still have the equipment to sniff the data going through my PC (my PC acts as a wireless access point for my DS), so if you still need it, I can do it. I'll check the pcaps. EDIT: Yes, there were UDP stuff with Wireshark's description "Source port: xxx Destination port: xxx", and no I was NOT using the GTS

And down again. :

I'm sensing a pattern here 1st Gen RBY 2nd Gen GSC 3rd Gen remake of RBY, RSE 4th Gen remake of GSC, DPP 5th Gen potential remake of FRLG/RSE, and 5th gen stuff Thus, you can say that 3rd gen and onwards will have remakes of (gen no. - 2)th gen. If my speculation is correct, in a few years Nintendo will release their newest gaming device, then announce 5th generation, then 2-3 years after that, remakes of 3rd Gen. Your comments?
