Things To Know

You need to find your DS Parameters to proceed with RNG. This only needs to be done once per save, console, or emulator.

Step 1: Set Up RNG Reporter

Open RNG Reporter.
Click 5th Gen Tools -> Find DS Parameters.
Choose your game version and language.
Set the Seed Encryption Variables:
- DS Type: Lite/Original
- DS MAC Address: 0009BF123456
- VCount: 10-70
- Timer0: 300-1200
- GxStat: 6-6
- VFrame: 0-15
DeSmuMe's DS MAC Address is always 0009BF123456.

Note: If you cannot find a seed, double-check your settings. If correct, try: - VCount: `0-FF` - Timer0: `0-FFFF` This will take longer to search.

Step 2: Find Your Seed

Open RunAsDate.
Enter any time and check Immediate Mode.
Input the same time in the DS Parameter Finder.
