redlof's Guide to Convert Codetwink Cheats to PNACH Files! for newbs.

At least someone understands.
Don't use word on addresses that only change 1 or 2 bytes for 3 to 4 bytes changes use word.
eg
00000000 00000000 - 000000FF = Byte
10000001 00000100 - 0000FFFF = Short
20000003 00000000, 00010000 - FFFFFFFF = Word

A basic example of what the extended "table" does is allowing codes that are condensed to be used.

Code:

patch=1,EE,404FF828,extended,000C0001
patch=1,EE,03030303,extended,00000000
patch=1,EE,004FF827,extended,00000003

The uncondensed version of that, which is how PCSX2 wants it normally is this.

Code:

patch=1,EE,004ff828,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff82c,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff830,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff834,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff838,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff83c,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff840,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff844,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff848,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff84c,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff850,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff854,word,03030303
patch=1,EE,004ff827,byte,03

I haven't been touching PCSX2 much as of late, but I would like to delve more into extended.

I got a little problem So far I have written successful patches for 4 games using your system from a blind start they all work thank you. Now to the problem I wrote one for final fantasy XII and it looks fine so I save it under the "CRC=0779FBDB" 0779fbdb.pnach load up the game and it finds no pnatch what am I doing wrong? If you need more info just ask I don't know what else to say just ask and I will give any additional information youi requre to help me.

[redlof]

are you sure about the CRC?
also in the pnach browser, search for your pnach before running the game.
make sure the CRC matches the one displayed in the dos window, not the title bar but inside it, as I have shown in the screenshot.

I have the SCES of FINAL FANTASY X, so the Advanced Identification System isn't the same as the one on CodeTwink, what should i do?



Thanks,.

Try this one, but I'm not sure whether these codes will work or not.

"Final Fantasy X2_PAL_CB ported"
If it's for the X, what should i do to have the patch working? ( still confused even with reading the 1st message).
Thanks.,
