Hi,
I've been playing around with the patching process for PCSX2 and I'm running into some trouble trying to get patches to work for Suikoden III. I've gotten one code to work, infinite potch(money) but I'm having a hard time getting the infinite skill points codes to work. The currently working patch is listed below, and the codes I'm having a problem getting to load are blocked below that.
Working Patch
Code:
gametitle=suikoden III [SLUS 20387] (U) [5F3DD929]

Anyone have any idea how to get the non working codes to run? It's not clear if either of these are in RAW format but I've tried them both as is and converted using omniconvert version 1.0.3. I'm currently running the patches using PCSX2 0.9.8.

Try this:
Code:
//Insanely Quick Skill Point Gain (After Battle)
patch=1,EE,216C9124,extended,2442270F
It was in codebreaker 1+ format;3, soo yeah you left it without conversion.
As for the condensed code from herrvillain, it seems fine to me, should work same as the same cheats from codetwink, but what I noticed there are 109 chars, but the last one ends in adress like there was 108 chars;3, SIII is one I passed for being the least suikoden'ish, soo not sure, but maybe one is taking same slot with another one, soo try changing this code slightly to:
not sure if THAT was the problem, but if it works now, then yeah somebody probably just made that condensed code with calculator taking it from other site without checking;].

Thanks for the reply! Not sure why but whenever I use that code it causes the FPS on the emulator to jump to 1000+ and it just sits at a black screen. I did finally get it to work by just keying in the memory address for every combat character's SP pool and setting it to 99999. I'm going to use Suikoden III to play with the patch tools a bit so I can get familiar with them for other games. New patch below -
Code:
gametitle=suikoden III [SLUS 20387] (U) [5F3DD929]
comment=Patches
//Infinite Potch
//Potch set to 99999. Amount drops while shopping but resets at the end
patch=1,EE,2196E5F0,word,000F423F
Oh well maybe the person making the first condensed code didn't checked at all, but I checked only first and last from there as well;3. It still must patch something which game doesn't like patched, counting 100+ codes from someone else is bothersome, much easier to create condensed codes from the start knowing exactly how the game data looks.
If you're learning, ability to create those codes is quite usefull soo catch an example:
Code:
//condensed/32 bit multi constant write cheat example
patch=1,EE,4BBBBBBB,extended,ZZZZYYYY
patch=1,EE,XXXXXXXX,extended,00000000
code type 4 = condensed 32-bit constant write(line after that type also belongs to same code!)
BBBBBBB - address(yup without first number, that's getting replaced by code type from above)
XXXXXXXX - value
ZZZZ - amount of times the code will be applied
YYYY - the distance between codes generally is YYYY*32 bits(4 bytes as preference), examples:
- 0001 will mean that next code starts 4 bytes after the previous one,
- 0002 the next code will start 8 bytes after the previous one,
- 00FF the next code will start 1020 bytes after the previous one.
and a normal commonly used code as an example to compare
//cheat example
patch=1,EE,ABBBBBBB,extended,XXXXXXXX
