Star Ocean 3 Patch Help Please

[3py0n]

EDIT: The code below works fine but if I try to use like the x4 SP or the x8 SP or w.e it doesn't work. Well it does work in the sense that after you level up it shows that you gain x4 Sp or x8Sp or w.e. but when i go into the menu i only got x2 the amount. anyone know why?

Code:

SPx4 after level up
patch=1,EE,E0029821,extended,004014F4
patch=1,EE,20401564,extended,00139880

the above code is what i tried in my patch and it doesn't work it does exactly as I said.

i have not tried n e exp over x2 but i have tried fol x4 and it works.




Sorry that my first post had to be a question.

So I was at another thread concerning the SO3 patch and a member of the forum, vampirexx (i think) posted the code for max fol after viewing menu. I was trying to hunt down where he got it from by trying to encrypt it back and see how he got to the result he did but no dice

The codes i got from codetwink (http://cheats.codetwink.com/ps2/view/4521/3/) don't work at all, except the one for displaying treasure chests on the map lol.

Code:

gametitle=Star Ocean 3 [SLUS 20488] (U) [23a97857]

//2x fol after battle
//patch=1,EE,E0013023,word,00253480
//patch=1,EE,0025348C,word,00129040

that's what i have and yes they're commented out cause they wouldn't work aside from the "max fol upon entering menu" i commented that out cause I didn't want to use that cheat.

I followed Redlof's guide (http://forums.pcsx2.net/thread-4740.html...ight=cheat) to a tee and it worked for the most part for FFX but not for SO3

Can someone please shed some light on this manner? Thanks in advance

Use extended instead of word and your exp gained code isn't in RAW format.

[redlof]

Try using Extended instead of word

[3py0n]

omg love you guys and or girls btw im at school atm lol but i'll try it when i get home. um raw format? isn't the "raw format" the format it's in when I took the code from codetwink? I thought after I used the decrypt thing that it wasn't in raw or wasn't supposed to be or w.e.

As well is there a telltale sign of when to use extended or word or byte or short? I read it in another thread tried it but didn't work...probably cause I did it wrong or w.e. but yea.

And thanks again!

PS: great guide redlof

oh yea if extended doesn't work then what's the next course of action I should take?

EDIT: okay nevermind lol i input the wrong code and it doubled fol instead of exp hehe thanks guys!!!!

hrmm...it worked kind of...like when i switched it to extended it didn't give any errors but it wouldn't produce the effect you know.

here.

Code:

gametitle=Star Ocean 3 [SLUS 20488] (U) [23a97857]
comment=code for good stuff
//exp gained per battle x2
patch=1,EE,E0013023,extended,00253480
patch=1,EE,0025348C,extended,00129040
//treasure chets displayed on map
patch=1,EE,002D8720,word,24020002

the code for the exp was decrypted using the CB2crypt program but I had to check the V7 common encryption or else the extended thing wouldn't work. the code for the treasure cheats was also decrypted using the v7 common.

thanks in advance

first post has been updated due to another problem i encountered

[redlof]

will you stop using red color for text, to highlight BOLD text is enough.
What is the code from the website?


I repeat don't use red

Ummm strange code try this

//exp gained per battle x2
patch=1,EE,E0013023,extended,00253480
patch=1,EE,2025348C,extended,00129040

Because you lost a "2"

[3py0n]

oh yea i have that solved already im talking about the first post hehe...exp is fine im fine with having it at x2 and fol at x4 but i want SP at x4 as well but as i mentioned, it SAYS i gained x4 after i lvl up but when i check the menu and see how much sp i gained, it's only X2...every time it's only x2 even if i input a code for x32SP
