how to put cheats from codejunkies.com on to my ds games ....  need help through whole thing..

if u could answer fast it would be appreciated... 

[meangreenie]

Hi and welcome to SCDev

heres a quick ,example.....


copy and paste the codes into a .txt file, but make the labels like this (tip keep labels short because the text won't scroll)....

@ label 1
12345678 12345678
12345678 12345678

@ label 2
12345678 12345678
12345678 12345678
12345678 12345678
12345678 12345678

@ label 3
12345678 12345678

...save it, and then run the .txt file through AR2CHT.exe (available at the supercard site, just check the software for your type card)

this will produce your .cht file

then run that .cht file through the cht2supercardcheat.exe (also at supercard site)
this will produce your .scc file (note, don't put the .txt file through, it needs to be the .cht file)

so example gamename.txt-> gamename.cht-> gamename.scc

then when you go to patch the rom go to the  properties page (double click the rom in the list of the client) and tick 'enable cheat' and direct the browse box to your .scc file


tip... put a 'space' after the '@' when doing the labels for the cheats

Ok we can go through an example as it will help others too.

So choose a game you want done, and specify which region it is. Also need to know you're supercard type.. sd, cf, lite or rumble.

Then we can go through it in this thread (@ mods/admin.. I hope thats ok).


Also note that the latest client software 2.60 already has lots of ready made cheat files available (including y's strategy (e)).. all you do when you patch a rom is 'tick' the cheat box and if the browse box fills with a path and file name automatically then a ready made cheat is available, if it stays blank there one isn't available and you have to make your own.

It would be nice if you can make an example for
"1043 - Final Fantasy III (Europa)"
I have a Supercard SD Slot2 with firmware V1.81 and Patcher V 2.60

There where some AR cheats for PAL Version:

How can I do it now?

Thank you for your help and sorry for my bad English

[meangreenie]

no problem...

1) first copy and paste the codes into any .txt file, for this we can call it ff3.txt

copy from...

...down to...

020F3B60 E3A005E0

... now you will need to put '@' symbols in to seperate the cheats for the coverter, also note because of the sc-slot2 interface the labels need to be shorter to avoid them being cut off on the screen (soon to be fixed i hear), so adjust them like so...some examples...

adjust..

.. as you can see you kind of sometimes need to make your own code up to get it to fit

So basically put a @ in front of every cheat label and shorten the names so it will fit on the SC screen

save the .txt file it should look something like this -->  http://www.evilshare.com/abbdf58e-7621-102a-847b-00a0c993e9d6

of course you can change your label names to how you want them, but remember to keep them short to avoid them being cut off on the screen


2) run the ff3.txt file through ar2cht.exe  --> http://eng.supercard.cn/download/ar2cht.rar

this will produce  ff3.cht

3) run ff3.cht file through cht2supercardcheat.exe  -->  http://eng.supercard.cn/download/cht2supercardcheat_v1.02.rar

this will create--> ff3.scc


4) load the clean rom in the client but before pressing 'out' double click the rom in the list this will bring the porperties screen up (do not look at the options tab, that's for gba only)

now simply 'tick' enable cheats and use the browse box to navigate to where you have the ff3.scc file, press OK then press out. The patcher should of produced 3 files, put these togethr on your mem card and run. 


note... if the browse box fills by itself when you tick cheats, then the patcher has a cheat already for that game in it's database... though i have found a few that plain don't work and had to do my own using the codes from codejunkies... make sure to browse to the .scc file you created

good luck

Hi,
thanks for your very fast answer.
Now I have made all like your description.
When I start the game at the first screen I can made the cheats on or off. OK!
I press B to begin. OK!
Then the Intro starts. Ok!
Then black screen!   

Can you cheat this game and test it on your NDS? Then I can be sure that the fault is not on my side.
I think there is a problem with "1044 - Final Fantasy III (Europe)"

I have also tested with "1095_Pirates_Of_The_Caribbean_At_Worlds_End" and all works perfect.

Thank you very much

yeh, i tried the game 1044 ff3 (e)

1st start i turned on all the cheats from my example .txt from above at start up, then pressed 'b' to go to the game and the rom just looped with an initialisation error ? on a black screen

so i then restarted and pressed 'b' from the cheats menu with all cheats set to 'off'..the game then started properly, and once in the game properly after entering my name ect,  i hit 'L+R+start+up' to enter cheats menu, turned all the cheats on, and pressed 'b' to get back to the game.... the game seemed ok from there, though i didn't really test it, but the game was playing... i'm not a ff3 fan and have never played it


so yes there seems some problem with the AR cheats on SC and FF3 (E), but try my method of not turning cheats on till you are in the game, as that may get round it.


edit.. thanks guys i appreciate the karma points, it's nice to be out of the negative.. sorry if the advice i give is not the most coherent or productive.. but i try
