Gateshark2NTR is a program that will allow you to convert a Gateshark's cheats text file in a plugin usable with NTR.
Note: This is no longer supported, consider using CTRPluginFramework 3DS with Action Replay support instead of using a converter. With it you can simply load your text files with cheats.

Config
The soft can use a config file in order to set some preference:
#builder_name: Nanquitas; #name_auto: 1; #folder_auto: 1; #log: 0; #debug: 1;
List of options and their meaning:
- builder_name - Will permit you to enter the name that will be used by the converter automatically for the splash menu.
- name_auto - Set to 1 by default. If disabled the soft will ask you to enter a name for the resulting file.
- folder_auto - Set to 1 by default, if the name of the input file is recognized as a titleID, the program will automatically create the folder tree like: plugin > ID folder > plugin.plg.
- log - Set to 0 by default. Create a traceback file with various info. Mainly used to debug the program.
- debug - Set to 0 by default. If activated, the plugin will have the Debug Menu enabled. This menu can be shown with L + Start and shows various infos. This menu also have a logger.
Creating a spoiler
You can organize the menu with some spoiler.
[++Spoiler text++]//<-- Will open a spoiler [--]//<-- Will close a spoiler
You can open a spoiler inside another spoiler but only for "two level":
[cheats] [+Spoiler+] ->cheats ->[+Spoiler inside Spoiler+] --->[cheats] ->[+a second spoiler inside the first one+] --->[cheats]
You can't do:
[cheats] [+Spoiler+] ->cheats ->[+Spoiler inside Spoiler+] --->[cheats] --->[+a spoiler inside the second one which is himself in the first one+] ----->[cheats]
Doing the second option will only create another spoiler below the second.
| Example |
|---|
|
[++Monsters codes++] |
Creating a note
You can also create a note for a cheat, which can be shown by pressing Y in the menu.
You can declare a note with: {This is a note}
| Example |
|---|
| [++Monsters codes++]
|
Note that the \n means going to the next line. By using it twice, you can jump a line.
It's the only format character this function supports.
Troubleshoot
If when you start the program you have this error: The program can't start because VCRUNTIME140.dll is missing from your computer.
Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
Then install the VCRedist 2015 I linked higher.
