gametitle=Monster Hunter 2 DOS [SLPM-66280/SLPM-74245]
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//      This pnach file gives you the PSP Connection unlocks as if you've
// connected your game to a PSP using a USB cable. Place the file in your PCSX2
// cheats folder. To unlock the extras, enable cheats, then save your game.

//
// It unlocks the following:

//      - New equipment at the Forge.

Please post the contents of the emulog.txt file after the problem occurs. The file can be found in "My Documents\PCSX2\logs" for the installer version or in "PCSX2\logs" for the portable/binary version. You can enable logging by going to "Tools > Enable File Logging". Then restarting PCSX2 and loading your game.

Please make sure to enclose your emulog in code tags like so (remove the empty space on the closing code tag!):

Exit, then start PCSX2 and load your game. This will create emulog from the beginning.

Thank you! Create a new file inside of your [PCSX2 folder]/Cheats folder

Name it... "SLPM-662801_828E80DE.pnach" (it's the game code + src i needed from emulog)

Put this inside:

Code:
[PSP Unlocks\Yian Garuga offline Urgent Quest, given by the Rival Hunter]
patch=1,EE,705D4AD4,extended,00000004
[PSP Unlocks\Rival Hunter Yian Garuga dialogue]
patch=1,EE,705D4AD3,extended,000000BB
[PSP Unlocks\New equipment at the Forge]
patch=1,EE,705D4AD2,extended,00000010
[PSP Unlocks\Pretty in Pink exclusive Poogie outfit]
patch=1,EE,705D6B7B,extended,000000db
[PSP Unlocks\Exclusive Kokoto hairstyles]
patch=1,EE,705D6B7C,extended,000000FF
[PSP Unlocks\Loving Sakura Symbol Color]
patch=1,EE,705D6B7D,extended,0000001F
[PSP Unlocks\Bonus Connection Video Gallery entry]
patch=1,EE,705D71E2,extended,000000EA
[PSP Unlocks\19 Monster List entries, including Yian Garuga]
patch=1,EE,705D7214,extended,00000008
[PSP Unlocks\Flags all books associated with the Monster List entries]
patch=1,EE,706ADABA,extended,00000020

Obviously restart pcsx to pick up cheat files, and make sure cheats are enabled in "Settings -> Emulation... Enable Cheats"

If you done all that correctly... Cheats above will show up in the UI when you right click on your game and choose cheats. You'll be able to enable/disable them then.

Best of luck.
