Even though this topic has already been brought up (https://gbatemp.internet/threads/any-wany-to-use-cheat-codes-on-a-gba-virtual-panel-game.425490/) this method is still unknown to many users. So, I've decided to make an easy-to-follow guide on how to use cheats with the GBA Virtual console for 3DS.

For starters, you will need a few files:
GBAATM: https://gbatemp.net/threads/gba-auto-trainer-maker-gbaatm.99334/ (download link is downward, linked below.)
Ultimate GBA VC Injector: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-ultimate-gba-vc-injector-for-3ds.438057/
And some cheats, linked below is a collection of .cht files that are compatible with GBAATM (they are translated from chinese, please forgive the broken english.) You can also apply codebreaker codes, though most codebreaker codes will not work unless they don't have a master code (The RNG Kill Code in Pokemon does not count).

At present, onto the tutorial!
Role 1, Backing up your saves (optional):
ane. Get into your 3DS, and launch the game that has the salve you lot want to back upwards
2. Reboot, and open GodMode9
3. Open up SYSNAND VIRTUAL (Drive S: ), and copy the gbavc.sav (not agbsave.bin).
4. Create a divide folder somewhere on your SD carte for the save, and paste it inside that folder.
5. Repeat for all your GBA games.

Part 2, Using GBAATM:
i. Open GBAATM and select the ROM you desire to patch
2. Most of the settings are already configured for you, such every bit what ram to use, etc. Just brand sure that "Lawmaking Type" shows "Codebreaker/GS three".
3. Nether patches, bank check Trainer (cheats selection). *You lot tin can also cheque "slow motion" if you lot want...*
four. Brand sure Enable/Disable is checked, then configure it how y'all desire. *I personally just have "Enabled at start?" checked, and leave the key-combos lone. As using the menu in-game has a tendency to cause temporary graphical corruption...*
5. Under Settings, check Trainer card. Here, you take a lot of interface options to mess around with, though they're pretty useless besides just looking prissy. Equally long as you have Trainer carte checked, you're good.
six. Finally, onto the good stuff! You can either paste your Code Breaker cheats into the text box (make sure they don't require a principal code) or select Load cheat file. Each of your cheats should wait like this:
Crook name:
Cheatcode

WARNING! Exercise Not Employ Any Crook CODES IF THERE IS A CORRUPTED OR MISSING Crook Proper name, Give thanks YOU!

7. Once you lot have everything input, and you take your cheats set upwardly and renamed the style you lot want information technology, information technology's fourth dimension to save. Choose where yous want information technology to be output, you tin do this under the Salve Every bit option. *I personally would go along your make clean and patched ROMs seperate, as the cheats may not always work properly. The crook module may too mess with Ultimate GBA VC Injector's auto save type detection.*
viii. Click Patch Game, and it will exist exported to your desired location
9. Repeat for all the games you want to employ cheats with
10. (optional) Test all of the ROMs and cheats in an emulator, some may not work or may not take been patched properly.

Part 3, using Ultimate GBA VC Injector:
i. Open, and select your patched ROM.
two. Information technology should auto-fill the ROM Size and Save Blazon options. If it doesn't, open it with the clean ROM first, and so input the correct salve type subsequently re-opening the patched ROM (practise not alter the rom size).
3. On the side by side screen, fill up out all the information well-nigh the game and choose an icon image.
4. Aforementioned with the next screen
5. On the VC Parameters screen, it should practice most of the piece of work for y'all. Configure the game to your liking, just recall to randomize the Product Code and Championship ID for every game. However, practice not check anything under Game patches & extras. All the patches under this department may interfere with the cheat menu.
six. Install the .cia files on your 3DS

Part iv, Restoring your saves (only if yous did Office one):
ane. Launch the GBA VC on your 3DS that has the save you want to restore.
2. Reboot, and open up GodMode9
3. Observe the gbavc.sav for your game
4. Go back, and open SYSNAND VIRTUAL (drive S: )
5. Paste your save in at that place
vi. Enter the cardinal combo when prompted
7. Reboot, and echo for all the games that have saves you want to restore

Now, when you open your games, you volition be greeted with a cheat menu. Hither are the controls for the carte:
Press A on a crook to enable information technology (you can tell considering there is a letter beside the proper noun, and it volition change from N to Y when enabled)
Press B on a cheat to disable it (you can tell considering the Y will modify to Northward when disabled)
Press Up or Downward to navigate the bill of fare
Printing Start to outset the game

Detect: You may find a few graphical glitches when cheats are enabled (more often than not in cut scenes, such as the intro to Pokemon Fire Red), these are temporary and exercise not hateful that there's something incorrect with the game. The only time I would exist concerned is if your game was acting up all the time and was unplayable...

Credits: Myself (for creating this tutorial), @Ray2R (for suggesting the idea), @Asdolo (for developing Ultimate GBA VC Injector), @cracker (for developing GBAATM), and @d0k3 (for developing GodMode9)

Permit me know if this has worked for you, if you have bug, or if you lot take suggestions for this thread

Fun fact: The list of cheats below is really the GBA cheat database from GBATemp before information technology went downward, it is still the all-time collection of .cht files I could find

Edit: I am very serious when I say to ask if y'all're having problem. If I didn't desire to assist out then I wouldn't accept fabricated this guide...

Information technology's a very helpful guide....

• #vii

should not that non every unmarried game volition play nice westward/ this method of patching in cheats only for the bulk people use a GBA VC with, should be good. (always examination teh patched from in something like VBA-M etc earlier making the VC to rule out a bad rom)

• #8

should not that not every single game volition play nice w/ this method of patching in cheats but for the majority people use a GBA VC with, should exist good. (always exam teh patched from in something like VBA-Yard etc before making the VC to rule out a bad rom)

I think I did recommend to test out the games before making them into a VC, though all of the games I tried so far work pretty well with GBAATM...

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

can you delight make a video, if non for the tutorial then at least for the final result?

I will show the last effect, though I will not make a video guide. Simply because I don't have the time to brand, and keep a video guide updated. A text guide is much easier to maintain...

This is squeamish and all but won't work on all games. Games that are at 32mb take issues with this. It seems hard at first simply it really is pretty piece of cake on how to do.

It's mostly but graphical issues though. GBAATM does try to not corrupt the game, though it isn't perfect. Though I did get it to work only fine with Burn Emblem (32mb)... Besides, this is the simply selection until we go a good GBA emulator that supports cheats...

Is at that place a simple way to add this to already fabricated cia files? or excerpt the rom to re use and input information technology? Whenever I endeavour using the ultimate vc injectors the icons don't sit right on the cia

Edit: I realized what to do correct afterwards and its working dandy. Thanks for this guide

I go this when I load crook file... why ?

I did not create the crook files, so I can't give you a definitive reason why, though my approximate is that information technology happened due to the fact that they were translated from a different linguistic communication... What game are you lot trying to patch?
Edit: I see which one it is, I'll effigy it out...

Unfortunately dude, some of the .cht files (those with corrupted name text for cheats) by and large do not work anyways. I tried searching for some compatible codes, but at that place aren't whatsoever that work with this plan. Neoseeker, CodeTwink, all of those sites provided codes that don't work with this program. At least, that specific game has a congenital-in crook system in the form of the password arrangement. I used to use that all the fourth dimension as a kid to input cheats, and I think you might have amend luck using that instead...

Excellent write-upward Barnwey!

There's one case I've been having problem with - I've been unable to get this crook to piece of work on Female parent 3 (translated v1.1) via GBAATM

I've been able to go the cheat working in VBA (encounter fastened .clt), just no luck with GBAATM patching. Whatever suggestions?

It needs to exist a code breaker lawmaking, Game Shark doesn't work...

Gotcha - on conversion these appear to be ROM patch codes (based on https://gamehacking.org/faqs/hackv500c.html and https://gamehacking.org/system/gba)

Gameshark V1/V2 Encrypted
A986DFE1 8532B3F6
7750E1A0 3FACA8E8
368FBAB5 4691351A

Converts to

Raw
6404EB96 00002002
6404EBEC 00002003
6404F6A3 00003100

Every bit far every bit I understand, codebreaker doesn't support ROM patch codes, so these tin't exist converted to CB?
