I am having similar issues to
xiiaocrabby posted. I am trying to get all licenses unlocked in Gran Turismo 3 using gameshark codes (since some tracks are bugged and can't be completed) but the closest I can get is constant red text being spewed out by the console. It scrolls by faster than the CDVD info! Here's a small chunk of it:
Code:
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D01028, mode 0 [read]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D01028, mode 1 [write]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D03228, mode 0 [read]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D03228, mode 1 [write]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25903128, mode 0 [read]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25903128, mode 1 [write]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D01028, mode 0 [read]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D01028, mode 1 [write]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D03228, mode 0 [read]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D03228, mode 1 [write]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25903128, mode 0 [read]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25903128, mode 1 [write]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D01028, mode 0 [read]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D01028, mode 1 [write]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D03228, mode 0 [read]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25D03228, mode 1 [write]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25903328, mode 0 [read]
vtlb miss : addr 0x25903328, mode 1 [write]
The code after 0x is the same as the game shark codes, so I know they are the culprit here. I have tried using the PCSX2 Cheat Converter to create the pnach files using both Word and Extended, but both give the same red scrolling text and no changes in-game. Attached is the pnach that I am trying to use. The result should be all license tests set to gold.
Oh, and the site that I found the codes on stated that F413BD26 B26405AE needed to be used (a prerequisite?), though I have tried the codes with and without those and still no results...
Stats:
PCSX2 0.9.7 (r3113)
Vista x64
Gran Turismo 3 - A-Spec (USA) (SCUS_971.02)
*edit*
After some more reading and playing around, I think I'm still doing it wrong... here's the steps I am taking.
1. Copy codes from game shark site (
GS v1 codes)
2. Paste just the codes into Omniconvert (Input=GameShark V1, Output=Raw)
3. Take raw output and paste it into PCSX2 Cheat Converter and save pnach (trying both word and Extended, though I think extended is the one that works with 0.9.7)
4. enable cheats in emulator and hit go!
No matter how many different combinations of things I try, I just can't seem to get it to work... Is there a comprehensive step-by-step way to do this the right way?
