Request Boot to Name Entry

[paperfairy]

In 20XX and the Community Netplay codes, when the game boots, they boot directly to the character select screen. Now that I am using 20XXTE, and I am lazy, could I please have a code that boots either:

a) directly to the name entry screen (which would then boot 20XX)
b) boots to the VS Mode Screen with the cursor on Name Entry (requiring only a half button press)

Thanks a ton!

Why hasn't this been made yet?

Good question. ._.

I looked back when this was first posted, and couldn't do the same method as Boot to CSS. I haven't really pursued it since.

Thinking about it, could probably follow the stack before running the buffer overflow. But I'll leave that to someone else.

Very roundabout because Name Entry does not have a unique menu major ID.

Use an arbitrary flag byte at 803f799d, even though this could be avoided by using a global power-on frame count - but I didn't have that address available when I made this.

Wait, wouldnt what hes asking for be impossible since you have to get to the name entry screen to start the memcard hack.

He's talking about using 20XXTE with a modified [almost vanilla] ISO or just a vanilla ISO with Gecko codes enabled.

Edit: except I think you can't use Gecko codes with 20XXTE because a custom codehandler is placed in the normal codehandler region?

C2 codes are the only ones that don't work when gecko codes are enabled, meaning that this will only work with a modified iso. Been there done that

Finally tested this last night, doesn't work with 20XXTE, sadly. Oh well, thanks anyways! :D

How did you test it?

Worked for me

Currently running USB Loader GX -> Nintendont

turned on cheats, converted your code to .gct, placed it in the cheats folder, game refused to even start up once getting past the Nintendont loading screen

Just wanting to chime in that this works amazingly well for booting right into 20xxTE. Thank you so much Achilles1515 !
