Make 06 code shorter?

Is there a way to make this Wheel of Fortune code shorter? The zeros need to be there to overwrite the old answers I think.

Yes ^_^

Did you notice how the offset between each 06 write constantly is 74?
Also, you only need 1 byte zero´ed in order for the game to stop reading text (00 means: "Stop here").

Example:

06XXXXXX 0000000C
57656C6F 68616269
00000000 00000000

The underlined will be written and makes you read "Welohabi" on screen, even though there´s text not overwritten in memory.

I´d suggest making everything a C0 code with a loop, execute body 13 times:

Code:

li r10, 0

lis r12, 0x8058

LOOP:

lis r11, 0x5765
ori r11, r11, 0x6C6F
stw r11, 0x6B46 (r12)

lis r11, 0x6861
ori r11, r11, 0x6269
stw r11, 0x6B4A (r12)

stfs f22,  0x6B4E (r12)

addi r12, r12, 0x74
addi r10, r10, 1

cmpwi r10, 13
ble LOOP


f22 because we assume it´s 00000000.

The finished code would look like this? I like the little shortcut you did with the float register.

C0000000 00000007
39400000 3D808058
3D605765 616B6C6F
916C6B46 3D606861
616B6269 916C6B4A
D2CC6B4E 398C0074
394A0001 2C0A000D

Thanks for the help Bully this helps me to understand ASM a little more. That LOOP command is beautiful.

branch (jump) if less or equal

so once it hits 13, it starts over again?

No.
It writes 13 times and then quits.

But when the code executes again, it does all 13 writes again and again (just like RAM writes).

The code freezes the Wii. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.


li r10, 0
lis r12, 0x8058
LOOP:
lis r11, 0x5765
ori r11, r11, 0x6C6F
stw r11, 0x6B46 (r12)
lis r11, 0x6861
ori r11, r11, 0x6269
stw r11, 0x6B4A (r12)
stfs f22, 0x6B4E (r12)
addi r12, r12, 0x0074
addi r10, r10, 1
cmpwi r10, 13
ble- LOOP

Help please

Gecko.Net usually tells what went wrong. Did it disconnect from the game or something else?

It just freezes, It does not catch the exception in the breakpoint tab.

Weird.

We´ll just use the 08 codetype, then.

200C0074 00000000
08586B4A 68616269
200C0074 00000000
08586B4A 00000000
000C0074 00000000

In case you don´t understand what I did, read the documentation. It pretty much explains everything.

yeah but the C0 is alot better...
