I hope this is the right place, if not, I apologize in advance. I've been playing Persona 4, I was an idiot with saves and lost some progress, so I decided to use a cheat and save myself the couple hours of grinding I lost. I found a cheat that was supposed to give 8x the xp in battle. It worked, but the issue is, every cheat included was activated despite me only removing the // for the 2 I wanted. I didn't realize this at first, but now my stats (knowledge, courage, etc) are maxed. Realizing this has kinda ruined the game for me, so is there any way to edit the values back to something closer? I really don't want to start the game over at this point. I will include the cheat I used as an attachment if anyone is curious.

Some cheats are overall hardcoded and kinda hard to remove, I had done this once or twice myself and even though I was angry at myself I restarted my own game.

That sucks. I can see how this would ruin the playthrough. I'd start from scratch. It's a great game.

Yeah, looks like I'm going to restart. I tried poking around in cheat engine, but I couldn't find the values for these stats. Thanks anyway guys.

Okay so, I attempted to edit the original cheat file to see if any of the values would change in game. No luck with that.
I also attempted to make my own pnach with these values, to no avail. I'm either doing something wrong (most likely) or the values cannot be easily lowered after they were raised. I will do more research to see what I could be missing later. I found a thread about creating my own file that I can go over when I have some more free time, it likely can tell me what I'm doing wrong.
