Extreme Injector
DLL injector for gaming and other uses
Extreme Injector is a software tool commonly used to inject Dynamic Link Libraries (DLLs) into other processes running on a Windows system. Often used in gaming and software development, this tool allows users to modify or add custom functionality to a target application by "injecting" DLL files, which can influence the application's behavior or provide additional features. Extreme Injector is popular in the gaming community for enabling modifications or "mods" in games, but it also has potential misuse in game cheating and malware deployment, as it allows for altering applications in ways the original developers may not have intended. -

Citra Emulator
A Nintendo 3DS Emulator
Citra is an experimental open-source Nintendo 3DS emulator/debugger written in C++. It is written with portability in mind, with builds actively maintained for Windows, Linux and macOS. Citra emulates a subset of 3DS hardware and therefore is useful for running/debugging homebrew applications, and it is also able to run many commercial games! Some of these do not run at a playable state, but we are working every day to advance the project forward. (Playable here means compatibility of at least "Okay" on our game compatibility list.) Citra is licensed under the GPLv2 (or any later version). Refer to the license.txt file included. Please read the FAQ before getting started with the project. If you want to contribute please take a look at the Contributor's Guide and Developer Information. You should also contact any of the developers in the forum in order to know about the current state of the emulator because the TODO list isn't maintained anymore. -

Core mechanics such as stats, movesets, and evolution levels have been rebalanced to provide a more challenging and engaging experience. The hack also ensures that all Pokémon can be obtained within a single playthrough by adjusting encounter rates and availability across routes.
