Hi everyone!

hope you ps2 fans are doing well.

like subject might hint at, i got a problem with cheats.

i'm using pcsx2 0.9.6 and want to run cheats on persona 4, a few cheats i got from here, a few others from decrypting myself.

this is my file:

gametitle=Persona 4 [SLUS 21782] (U) [DEDC3B71]
comment=Persona 4 Codes
// Blades of Totsuka
// patch=1,EE,0079759E,extended,00000062

// Max/Inf Money
patch=1,EE,0079B68C.extended,3B9AC9FF

// Max Courage
patch=1,EE,0A78D94A.extended,000000FF

// Max Knowledge
patch=1,EE,0A78D74A.extended,000000FF

// Max Diligence

// Max Understanding
patch=1,EE,0A78CB4A.extended,000000FF

// Max Expression
patch=1,EE,0A78D14A.extended,000000FF

now, i tried different betas like 1398,1476 and 1479. none worked.

tried changing extended to byte, word or double and still nothing.

tried running one cheat at a time or multiple, more nothing.

oh and i also get the whole "XML loader returned an error"

"unrecognized patch "3B9AC9FF" and same with others

does someone have a hint about what i might be doing wrong?

tks for you attention guys
well try using a newer beta like the 1888 cause its also official. though that i doubt will solve your problem go at gameshark and codejunkies to get some codes and convert them with omniconverter. maybe they will work, be sure to take the gameshark version the pcsx2 says and the us version at codejunkies. if those doesnt work can u port the whole procedure u do to run them?
here's the working one's I have warning some of them dont have a discription made this one myself and got lazy giving the cheats some name's just test them ok and also use the r1888 the old 0.9.6
does not know extended cheats so thats why it dont work

tks alot guys!

anito9999, before trying iakoboss7 solutions that take more time i tried using your cheats with the exact same setting i still had, running beta 1398.

Big surprise when all of them work!!

TKS a lot mate, now i just need to sort things out so i only have the cheats i need activated.
Beta 1398? That one is very old and probably unstable, you should use beta 1888 which we also support.
Just so you know, the reason yours didnt work was because you had a period instead of a comma before extended Tongue2

Hi Smart Fellas!

I can't seem to find the game id of my Persona 4 PAL in the console window, but the game works like a charm. The problem is - because I cannot get a game id, I cannot make a .pnach file (not that I know how to...). But can anyone pls pls pls pls suggest anything at all?
About the cheats in the first post, the reason the money may or may not work (actually and technically don't work) is because the use of extended and 0 as the first byte when the operand is word.

That means only the FF in
patch=1,EE,0079B68C,extended,3B9AC9FF
is sent. It should be
patch=1,EE,2079B68C,extended,3B9AC9FF

Notice if using the explicit token "word" that digit should indeed be 0, but with extended it is what tells about the operand length.

of course the point instead comma was another error but it is history now.

All the others are correct since the operand is "byte"
so, in the codes: 0 for "byte", 1 for "short" and 2 for "word" any other indicates special codes.
These digits are just "code indicator/type" and not part of the address offset and are automatically changed to 0 (with extended) when the code is applied (not true when using the old explicit byte, short, word... and cause of out of memory errors and crashes).

PS: Just a warning. Although it's easy (and obvious) to tell an operand like 3B9AC9FF is a word, it's not evident case it was 000000FF but still a word, the difference is in the last case the address offset is indeed filled with all those leading zeroes, erasing whatever could be there as intended. And a BIG error if indeed a byte but sent as word, of course.
