LOL... soo you had raw code, then "decrypted" it...
ok as I found, the RAW code was:
Code:
201A1D78 10000006
which you probably started from... you don't "decrypt" that =_=;... it's already RAW/unencrypted, which is usable in pcsx2...
the pnach to work in pcsx2 should then be:
Code:
patch=1,EE,201A1D78,extended,10000006
Why you even thought about decrypting unencrypted code in the first place? O.o

Edit: Generally most people while uploading their codes somewhere note what format are those codes, if it's raw/unencrypted, they're already usable in pcsx2 pnach files. If they're in any other format, use Omniconvert to convert them from choosen input format to raw/unencrypted output format. Later use PCSX2 Cheat Converter to add pnach formatting to those raw codes and you'll have ready cheats for pcsx2 in no time.
Well the tut said "The CB codes on the website are in RAW format and need to be converted to make them work with pcsx2. For this you will require CBcrypt." So I got the code 201A1D78 10000006 from the site and converted it and got 2A3FA3B1 10000006. i copied the line you made for me and it didnt work and i know the code works. Sorry if im being difficult.

Which you tried?
The one from my last post which should be correct or that previous one which looked similar, but was based on your decrypted-unencrypted code?Tongue2
I'll repeat once more, firstly RAW codes are "unencrypted" means they have no encryption which means you don't "decrypt" them. And second, raw codes work with pcsx2. CBcrypt is old and obsolete, most people use omniconvert as it does same thing for more formats in any mix. Same as this topic, it still have some usefull info, but it's just confusing, especially with wrong info calling "codebreaker V1+" an "RAW" which is untrue from general point of view, as raw codes are unencrypted codes, it's calling them "raw" couse the topic is purely about codebreaker V1+, but codebreaker uses a few different codes which this guide doesn't explain at all and wrongly calling V1+ a raw... If you still don't belive me, look at the screenshot in that first post of this topic. Look at CBcrypt and notice how those adresses looks like in compare to what codes you have for that game.
Basically RAW code in this guide is Codebreaker V1+, while RAW everyone else = unencrypted. Dunno why author called it like that in his guide, but it's wrong.

Also a fact that code works on ps2 doesn't mean it'll work in pcsx2. That code from my last post
Code:
patch=1,EE,201A1D78,extended,10000006
IS correct, if it doesn't work, it simply doesn't work on pcsx2. You can use the codes for infinite mp instead.
which are:
Code:
//Inf MP In Battle
patch=1,EE,200C0100,extended,8C830238
patch=1,EE,200C0104,extended,8C810184
patch=1,EE,200C0108,extended,0023100B
patch=1,EE,200C010C,extended,08068678
patch=1,EE,200C0110,extended,AC820180
patch=1,EE,201a1a10,extended,08030040
Also even if the code would work on pcsx2, there is always a possibility the game was released in more versions, and those codes aren't working in your version.

well its still not working...im almost positive that KH2 FM is the only version... the .pnach goes in the patch(s) folder right? or cheat(s)...well if all fails is there any other cheat engine besides emuhaste and codebreaker iso.

Does your pcsx2 console gives a warning that pnach file wasn't found? If it doesn't then it should say that number of cheats were loaded correctly, and doesn't work from other reasons. If you do have a warning about cheats not found, make sure your pnach file is named exactly like the file in the warning(gamecrc.pnach, make sure it doesn't have .txt in the end as a hidden extension - windows hides it by default), also make sure it's in a folder called "cheats" inside your pcsx2 folder where you installed it(or C:\Users\username\Documents\PCSX2).
As for cheating, you can use for example "Cheat Engine" or "ArtMoney", there are more probably, but those two are widely known.

In that thread description:
Code:
both NTSC Action Replay Max and Raw forma
ARMax can be converted, but Raw codes are already usable.
Below you have a list, for example:
Code:
All Bottle Items (98)
=====Those are ARMAX=====
HN1M-Q45Z-G1BG9
NDNE-X0AZ-UE1YC
XNPW-UWJP-VFJBB
AJK1-12MN-94HZG
934U-U8Q8-R8ZKR
PVQH-4D7V-3XBVB
TWMX-JG5P-WMX23
=====Those are ARMAX=====

=====Those are RAW=====
20340CE8 62626262
10340CEC 00006262
00340CEE 00000062
00340D49 00000062
20340DCC 62626262
10340DD0 00006262
=====Those are RAW=====
You can use PCSX2 Cheat Converter to make it simple. Just copy RAW codes to left window in this program, click convert and you'll get correct .pnach format on the right side.

Edit: If the codes were only as ARMax, Codebreaker or similar format(non-raw) then you would need to use omniconvert(or similar program) to convert them from their format to RAW/unencrypted before using above program.

Okay I'm back again. So I want record a video of the cheats with the built in recorder but it always turns them off when I push record. Is there a way to prevent it from turning off?
