CW cheat device tutorial

Installation

1) DL the CW Cheat installer and put it in ms0/PSP/GAME folder
2) Run the installer in the PSP and choose install, then typical installation
3) choose the correct firmware u want to install it to(most of the time u'll be emulating the latest fw so choose that one)
4) wait - and done

Usage

1) Run the Game (In devhook, choose the fw where you installed the cheat device)
2) In-game... press and hold select for 3 seconds to go to the Cheat Menu. use the following settings:

enable cheats: y
select cheats: place a Y on the cheats you want to activate (if non appears, the you will have to search for cheats and enter it manually”
select Manually cheat apply – if you wan to apply cheats one-time –or--
set Cheat application delay to default at 3, CW Cheat will apply the cheat per frame

3) Return to Game and enjoy cheating!!!

Updating cheats database

1) GO here to download the most updated cheat database:
http://cwcheat.zioale.it/

2) Connect the PSP to PC
3) Go to the dh folder in ms0:/ and replace the file named cheats.db with the new one
4) If you are doing this in-game, then select “reload cheat database” in the cheat in-game menu, if not, just load the game as shown above.

Creating your own cheats

Although CW Cheat comes with it’s own cheat searcher, I DO NOT recommend using this… it’s really slow (no offense to the author), you’d be better off using a program for windows called ArtMoney. Download it here:

http://www.artmoney.ru/e_download.htm

Now on to the procedure:

1) Run the game, and once it is running, press and hold select to launch the “cheat in-game menu”
2) On “Enable Dump Function” change it to Y
3) Return to game
4) Now take note of the value you want to cheat on (e.g. money, note down the specific amount)
5) It’s time to take a dump…. Erm, a memory dump! Press and hold the square button, release only when you see on-screen-message “dumping”. This will take about an hour…. On the Cheat Searcher!!!! ArtMoneY does this in a minute! (make sure you have a lot of space on the memstick, dumps may use up more than 10MB!!!)
6) First dump has been created, now return to game and change something on the value you want to cheat (e.g. money – spend on something, gain more) and also take note of the value.
7) Again, take a dump! Press and hold the square button! You now have two dumps!
8) Repeat steps 6 and 7 to create a 3rd dump.
9) Connect PSP to PC. Run ArtMoney on PC
10) In the search menu ArtMoney, hit SEARCH>OBJECT> FILE(S)(when you run ArtMoney, it’s defaulted to search in a program running on the PC, we want it to run a search your dumps)
11) On the file field, browse through your memsrick and choose MEMDUMP0.DMP (this will be the first dump you created)
12) Search for the amount you noted in step 4. It will now return a series of hits that does not mean anything to you. (this will be on the left panel)
13) On the file box, browse through and go to MEMDUMP1.dmp, hit FILTER, then enter the value you noted on the second dump (value noted on step 6)
14) The series will now be lesser, do the same for the last dump (MEMDUMP2.dmp) and you will now see that the series is now down to one, take note of this number as you will need to enter this in the cheat database. (if after 3 dumps, your search is still not down to 1, keep on repeating steps 6 and 7 to create a 4th, 5th dump, etc… the more dumps, the more accurate your search)
15) Create the cheat, a cheat will be in this format:

0x00000000 0x0000000

- the first set of zeros will be the number you found in ArtMoney, just replace the last zeros with the number returned by ArtMoney (e.g. if number returned by artmoney is 45678, then it should be made to 0x00045678)

the first number after x should be:

0 = if the value you are changing is 8-bit (maximum 255) e.g. 0x00045678
1= if the value you are changing is 16-bit (maximum 65535) e.g. 0x010045678
2= if the value you are changing is 32-bit (maximum 429467295) e.g. 0x20045678
(thanks to Haruyuki for this info!)

*most stat values in RPGs is 8-bit, money values are most of the time 16-bit, if not 32-bit

- the second set of zeros will be the value you want to change it to:

-Open windows calculator, hit view>scientific
-type in the amount desired (e.g. 99)
- click on the HEX radio button, it now changes to the HEX value (e.g. 63)

If this is an 8-bit value, then your cheat will be 0x00045678 0x00000063

Here are the maximum values:
8-bit = 0x000000FF = 255
16-bit = 0x0000FFFF = 65535
32-bit = 0xFFFFFFFF = 429467295

- Just make sure that there are 8 digits after the “x” in both strings of numbers

16) Now on the PSP folder, open the DH folder, and open the file Cheats.db on a Unix compatible text editor. This is what I use to edit: You can use WordPad in Windows to edit
17) You will now enter the cheat, if its an existing game and you want to add a cheat, just add another line to the game listed in the database (make sure you got the correct serial) in this format

_C Cheat Name (for v0.1.2 the format is: _C# Cheat Name --> the # can either be 0 - disabled; 1 - enabled)
_L 0x00000000 0x00000000 (enter the cheat you made here)

18) If it’s a new game, then add this to the last line

_S ULUS-12245 (game serialnumber - shown on savegame title or in the cheat in-game menu)
_G Game Title
_C Cheat Name #1 (for v0.1.2 the format is: _C# Cheat Name --> the # can either be 0 - disabled; 1 - enabled)
_L 0x00000000 0x00000000 (cheat created in number 15)
_C Cheat name #2 (if any)
_L 0x00000000 0x00000000 (if any)

19) Warning: making changes to the cheat database may ruin it! But don’t worry, you can always download it!
20) Submit any working game cheat to http://cwcheat.zioale.it/
21) Enjoy your cheat!!!!!

6) First dump has been created, now return to game and change something on the value you want to cheat (e.g. money – spend on something, gain more) and also take note of the value.

This guide sucks. Where are you supposed to change the values once the game begins. That's not very specific.
