You should always try with one code at a time, sometimes the problem may be with just one code

use
patch=1,EE,20660508,word,FFFFFFFF
patch=1,EE,2066050C,word,FFFFFFFF
for all char unlocked
just seems that you didnt decrypt it, or if you did, you didnt have common v7 encryption used.

Thanks Smile But I already found a way to unlock them in "The Vault" by buying them using the Koins you collect as you play.

Right.. I wana try and get this sorted so I don't have to keep asking you all for help and nagging ya! haha

OK.. different game..

Final Fantasy X..

Game Version:
SCES 504.90
DD 22 64 EA 36 38 80 FD AE 38 1A 70 64 CC C8 3C 63 03 A7 20
SCES_504.90 00483118 01C1A262 EC6AC700 01C1A262 EC6AC700

I want all characters stats maxed out with best weapons including the Aeons AND the Blitzball team to have all their stats maxxed out too.. right..

All I could find code wise was this..
http://cheats.codetwink.com/ps2/view/3971/

Advanced Identification System
Key: B2 B6 54 09 99 62 99 5B BE 18 0C B1 42 6D 5E 58 56 BC FC DC

so a different version.. take it the same codes won't work? Any way to convert them?
Specs:
CPU - AMD Phenom X4 9850 Black Edition Quad Core Socket AM2+ (940 pin) 2511.36mhz
MB - ASUSTek Crosshair II Formula Motherboard - nForce 780a SLI SPP (MCP Southbridge)
RAM - 8gb DDR2 Dual Channel Corsair PC2-6400
GFX - NVIDIA GeForce 8800GTS 512mb (I do have a 550GT TI 1GB)
OS - Windows 7 64bit/Fedora 13 KDE

Yeh it's a PAL English.. for some reason unknown to me some UK games have SCES and some are the normal SLES... don't know why *shrugs*

What about game saves? Are they specific to the game region/version?

Damn... miss the days of the PSX... I ahd an Xplorer cheat cart plugged in and that was hooked up to my PC.. getting codes was SOOOOO easy! PS2 ruined that... couldn't hack your own the same way... drat.. now I gotta rely on other sources... not fair Sad That was one of the main reasons I became a PC gamer instead of playing console games. PC games can be modded too! But I am feelin a bit nostalgic recently.. so been playing SNES, Amiga, C64, PSX, and a few PS2 games... all working fine except a few PS2 games.. Sad

Damn. I finally got pcsx2 not to crash when loading the pnach files (I needed to convert the RAW codes using the V7 encryption), I load up Final Fantasy XII, go to load my game, and it tells me that the save file is corrupted. Now, if I turn off the patch, I can go back and load the saved file fine. I'm guessing the game is doing this as an anti-cheating mechanism maybe? I don't know.

Anyway, does anyone know how to get around this? Or do I have to start from the beginning of the game if I want to use these patches?

EDIT: Never mind, I figured out the problem. FFXII needs the Master Code. As soon as I put that in, the game file no longer loaded up as corrupted.

yeah, its one of the codes in the master code, called the check-sum bypass. the only time you need to use master codes is if it says that, but remember, dont use ones that have a 9 or f at the begining.

and chris, you can find codes for ffx but you just need to find the pal codes, do a google search for ffx armax or something and if its anything besides codebreaker, i suggest using omniconvert. its free, all you have to do is sign up for a forum and when you check your email and register, your all good to dl it, have it posted towards the begining of the topic.

@ChrisR1982Edin
Try the codes in the text file that I attached.
First try without conversion i.e., directly put them in the pnach file.
If that does not work then use cbcrypt.

Could somebody please help me??? I am having problems running a pnach for Final Fantasy X.
The emulator crashes whenever I try to load this pnach.
My pnach files looks like this:
gametitle=Final Fantasy X [SCES 50490] (E) [FB479A8B]
comment=code for character
//Unlimited Gil
patch=1,EE,0867153A,word,63187503
// Tidus All Tech-spezial-magie
patch=1,EE,3275DC6E,word,E1175F9D
patch=1,EE,7369912F,word,CBE0CA65
patch=1,EE,A16BFB58,word,004C8800
patch=1,EE,0F5CB036,word,FD7A4128

I also tried using the unconverted codes and the emulator still crashed.
I converted the codes using CBcrypt with the common v7 encryption.
The original codes are:
Unlimited Gil
1031D218 0000FFFF

All Tech-spezial-magie
1031EADA 0000FFFF
2031EADC FFFFFFFF
2031EAE0 FFFFFFFF
1031EAE4 0000FFFF
