ok, i give up. this game is 99% untouchable by both gameshark codes AND cheat engine.
earlier tonight i was playing king's field 4 and hacked the hp/mp, gold, phys/mag strength values just fine and could even close out pcsx2 completely and load it back up and have the same exact values for my cheat table.
but the one and ONLY thing i can touch with cheat engine in armored core silent line (and likely all other ps2 armored core games) is the money value for the shop.
oh, sure, i can find the AP values (2 and 4 byte iirc) but i can't change or freeze them. if i freeze them they keep going down when i get hit. changing them does nothing.
what the hell did From do to protect these armored core games? they didn't put such absurd protection on any of their ps1 titles. didn't put any protection like this in king's field 4...or eternal ring...or other ps2 games they made...but AC? oh no...you can't touch ps2 armored core in ANY way except the money value.
the pnach thing for pcsx2 doesn't work and i even tried using gameshark before coming to post this and that didn't work either...
and for anyone who may reply... i'm asking for help with either gameshark codes or cheat engine specifically. not something like "artmoney".
