This guide is to show you how to install cwcheat into a psp slim or fat.
What is Cwcheat?
Cwcheat is the FIRST ever cheat device available on PSP.With cwcheat you can apply raw-relative cheat codes eitherin PSP and POPS game mode (due to two different version of this application: cwcheat and cwcheatpops) just like the famous commercial products "Action Replay", "CodeBreaker", "GameShark", "Xploder", etc. available on other platforms. cwcheat also features cheat searching and editing through a nice and easy-to-use in-game menu. Therer are other cheat devices, but I peronnaly like cwcheat.

1. Cwcheat - download it from here(In this guide we will be using "CWCHEAT_0_2_2_REVB" will update if needed)

3. If you have 3.71 M33 do not continue. Skip to step "4". Open up your cwcheat folder, you shoud see a INSTALL folder. Open it up and copy the seplugins folder into the root of ur psp.

GUIDE: MAKE Cwcheat Codes
NOT FOR NOOBZ
This is a guide to make cwcheat codes. Let me warn you somethin. This isn't easy. I'm not an expert at this so dont ask me crazy questions. Also, don’t ask me to find codes for you. I do not have time to get the game, get codes and test it.
1. When u download cwcheat it should come with a cheat searcher. I find that its a big laggy, so i use google and found a better one. It's called Artmoney download the freeware version unless u want to but the pro version.
2. Let's BEGIN ! Find the game you want. Then go to the cwcheat menu (hold select), then go to "cheat in-game menu". Change the "N" to "Y" in the "Enable Dump Function"
3. Take a deep breath and let’s go back to the game. Find a value you like to change (E.g. HP, SP, Money, Items, …etc). Remember the number u wanted to change on all the next 3 dumps
4. Now press and hold the Square button until it’s says “Dumping”. Usually the dumps take quite a lot of memory. Make sure that u have at least 20 MB free before doing this.
5. Go back to your game and change something on the value (like get hit, buy something …etc) you chose on step 3. Then take a dump ( not the bathroom one ...) and then go to step 6!
6. After that, repeat step 5 to make a third dump. Now connect your PSP to ur PC and start Artmoney on your PC. U can connect by using the CWcheat menu by click the enable USB to Y
7. On Artmoney go to the search tab and click options. Switch the setting on object to files. Then click OK. Now click the (…) button on the left. Browse for your MEMDUMP0.dmp
8. Now click Search. On the Value box enter the amount of value u had on dump 1. Like the amount of HP on your first dump. Then, it should give you a bunch of codes on the left side.
9. Now Browse for your MEMDUMP1.dmp. Then click Filter and enter the value you noted before. (On the left side, there should be a bit lesser codes)
10. Do the same thing as 9 except use the 3rd dump. Now, there should be one left. That is your code. If there is more than one, than make more dumps. The more dumps u have the more accurate and better.
CONVERTING THE CODES TO CWCHEAT
1. The cwcheat code format looks like this
1st Set 2nd Set
0x00000000 0x0000000
For the first set of 0`s.You are goin to use the number on art money. Replace the last zeros with the number you got from Artmoney. For example if I have a 27554. Then it would be 0x00027554.
2. Sadly, we aren’t done yet. We just need to add one more thing. On the first number of x u need to add …
0 – If u are changing a 8 bit value
1 – If u are changing a 16 bit value
2 – If u are changing a 32 bit value
Most RPG stats are 8 bit. And money are mostly 16 bit and 32 bit.
Now to the second set
1. Open your Windows Calculator. Click the View Tab and click Scientific. Now enter the desired amount for example 100. Now click HEX (make sure it was DEC before) this should give you a number. I got 64.
8 bit- Max is 255
16 bit – Max is 65535
32 bit – Max is 429467295
For example
0x00027554 0x00000064
PUTTING INTO THE DATABASE
1. First download the CWCHEAT database editor. Then download a cwcheat database. Open it with the editor.
2. Find your game and make a new code. Then put the two codes inside. If there isn’t the game then put a new folder. Remember to save it.
iv done binary and some hex and even i found this a bit confusing
just to not how hard is it to find the changed hex value? i dont want to try thing and spend ages scrolling through line and lines of code to find a changed value.
o well doesnt sound too confusing though
you might want to put something like no noobs on the thread tital lol you'll get a lot of confusing questions about this lol
