I did a thing! Hit me up if you’d like to join the standingintheodds.com club! Would love for it to be a common domain to find all your favorite shiny hunters
A year ago I arrived at San Antonio Regionals with my first ever, non-working, custom eReader card. I've since printed >2k working cards with >20 unique designs
Today, after many hurdles, I understand every single byte of the battle-e card program.
What a year! Hopefully the next one is crazier :)

This is a very cool discovery! e-Reader functions can have their parameters embedded directly in the game code. Which as far as I know, no one other than Nintendo has ever known.
It would have saved a chunk of space in my games, and it helps in further cracking how official cards were coded.

I made a pretty big breakthrough last night on the e-Reader API!
A function has been tripping me up for a couple months now. It looked like it took parameters but I could never find them! Turns out, like RST n, the params are in ROM

ERAPI-Z80 - E-Reader Development
This is the Z80 version of ERAPI. The GBA version is here. The currently undocumented opcodes are here. Many ERAPI functions use Fixed Point.

The e-Reader function, SetTextSize, is one I have avoided because it didn't always work correctly.
@fexcollects.standingintheodds.com cracked the code on it using Ghidra. We really need to crack the whole rom using Ghidra. Some day :)

The council has spoken (though it did take them awhile), I must give away the final codes!

@fexcollects.standingintheodds.com found a new ERAPI function, SetTextSpacing. This allows increasing the spacing between characters, lines, or both, of a run of text.
