Sorry if this is the wrong section, but i need help finding Dragon Quest: Journey of the Cursed King pnach files for PAL after searching i have only found files for NTSC, i'll post the NTSC here in case they can be converted (if they can't please let me know)


thanks in advance

Might work if you changed the CRC to match your own. Might not.

Load game in PCSX2, look in log around ELF blah blah Entrypoint blah blah game CRC

Saiki is describing how to create cheats...

He also provides a model how to convert between different versions.

thanks, but after trying to read and understand that, i feel dumber, simply because i cant understand anything apart from the and's and the's

[willkuer]

Well he is writing:

"NTSC U/C + 31f0 = PAL?"

Therefore:

Code:

patch=1,EE,00408F9E,extended,00000003//(NTSC)

becomes

Code:

patch=1,EE,0040C18E,extended,00000003//(PAL)

if you use windows calculator in hex-mode.

Try that. If it is working you can calculate the others.

As Blyss said you need the crc of the game which is displayed in the console after you started the game.

[aclgrafix]

so do i just copy paste "patch=1,EE,20409840,extended,05F5E0FF" into calc under programmer mode with the hex ticked, then copy paste what it turns into? or do i have to do other stuff too?? i am by no means smart when it comes to this

[Saiki]

Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King :: Xploder v1-v5 (PAL)
2040A594 05F5DD18

should be "max money"

patch=1,EE,2040A594,extended,05F5E0FF

NTSC + D54 = PAL

EACH game has a different conversion factor

20409840 + D54 = 2040A594

Wow, you are good.

No. For "patch=1,EE,20409840,extended,05F5E0FF" you would copy the 20409840 to windows calc in hex. Add D54. Copy the result back replacing the original (in this case 2040A594). So the result = "patch=1,EE,2040A594,extended,05F5E0FF"

20409840 + D54 = 2040A594

so basically i take each 8 digit grouping the +d54 to it? so the full code would be
"//Max Gold
//patch=1,EE,2040A594,extended,5F5EE53"? or do i leave the 2nd group of 8 alone?

[Saiki]

it's what I do

"//Max Gold
//patch=1,EE,2040A594,extended,5F5EE53"?

patch=1,EE,address,(byte/short/word),value

you are ONLY changing the address, not the value

I posted the max money code to get you started:
patch=1,EE,2040A594,extended,05F5E0FF
