any code for the Romancing SAGA 3 the final game i want to play... pls. guys

 

[KupoAuster]

Hi. Does anyone have any codes for Moe Chronicle (PCSH00148), or does it have pointers? Thanks in advance.

 

[KupoAuster]

Also, regarding Moe Chronicle, I can only stop the hp counter from depleting when taking damage, but the characters affected still die after some hits. Why's that?

There's probably two codes needed for this.
One for the health bar, and one for the actual health. They're usually near each other in memory and probably have the same value as well.

Happy new year everyone. I cant wait to see what new codes get made this year.

Site looks weird.

Welp I'm stumped, trying to make pointers for updated Disgaea 3 is proving to be harder than I thought. None of the orange pointers I find work so I'm not really sure what to do now.

Is Disgaea 3 one of those games where the value you are trying to find can not be found by looking for the exact value? What i mean is if i look for the value of money and it is 1000 you many have to search for a bit more of the value to find it? Maybe that is why the pointer codes are not working?

I say this because i was reading some older posts on here for another game and the person who was trying to find values had to do that to properly find the right values. Sadly i only understand the basics of looking for pointers and values so i do not think my thoughts will be of much help haha.

Yeah... So here's the f**ked up part about Disgaea...

The Disgaea games are an absolute b*tch to make codes for, even under the best of circumstances, and I think you'd have to make a dual 32-bit pointer for at least most of the codes you'd make, since Vitacheat doesn't support 64-bit pointers.
Something like this (this is not a working code, of course):

$3201 81234567 0000012B
$3300 00000000 000000E8

Sorry to quote this after so long, but did you ever get around to finishing the CSH codes for VitaCheat? I've checked all over the place online and I can't find anything :| Thanks!

I actually have quite a few codes, but haven't had a chance to progress much more in the game, as my Vita has been in and out of the pawnshop. I'll post what I have when I get next to my Vita, though.

EDIT: Here ya go. These were created on the US PSN/NPDRM version of the game.

Yeah... So here's the f**ked up part about Disgaea...
Ready?
DMA + 64-bit values.
Plus, if I remember my time hacking codes for Disgaea 1 and 2 for PSP, there's also float values to look for, in addition to not only multiple value locations, but no visual indication that codes for stats and sh*t are working.
The Disgaea games are an absolute b*tch to make codes for, even under the best of circumstances, and I think you'd have to make a dual 32-bit pointer for at least most of the codes you'd make, since Vitacheat doesn't support 64-bit pointers.
Something like this (this is not a working code, of course):

Oh wow, didn't know about all that for the PSP ports of 1 & 2, I didn't pay much attention to the code hacking scene on the PSP. I didn't think it was this bad since the codes I have for those games were really small. I can also try searching for floaters. Also it was the Dispatch code I've been trying to find which ended up being a level 3 pointer.

Since Dispatch was a small number, I would always do a 8bit normal search, In game since I'm not able to find it using a normal 32bit search and test each one before making a dump.

So today I tried doing both a fuzzy and a normal search in game and came up with 2 different address. 1 for fuzzy and 1 for normal 8bit and from what I can tell they both seem to work. I check the memory addresses and they both even seem the same.

Edit-
Actually I think I mixed up my dispatch addresses and read it wrong

32bit
81ADCE48 - 00010A00  <--Fuzzy Search
813FB5B8 - 0000000A  <--Normal  Search (Which ended up being nothing)
8bit
81ADCE49 - 0000000A  <--Normal Search

I think 81ADCE48 and 81ADCE49 only worked because of different bit placement or whatever. This might explain some things. Gonna try something else later on.

That 8bit address is part of that 32bit address, that's why it works either way. Try changing the 32bit address to "11111111" and see how much you actually get in-game. If it's only 170, you need an 8bit code. If it's ~4000 then it's a 16bit code. If it's over 70,000 it's a 32bit value.

It's probably an 8bit code, though. Addresses normally end in a 0,4,8 or C for 32bit codes. Since yours is on a 9, I'd say it's an 8bit.

 

[monodevil]

Is Disgaea 3 one of those games where the value you are trying to find can not be found by looking for the exact value? What i mean is if i look for the value of money and it is 1000 you many have to search for a bit more of the value to find it? Maybe that is why the pointer codes are not working?

I say this because i was reading some older posts on here for another game and the person who was trying to find values had to do that to properly find the right values. Sadly i only understand the basics of looking for pointers and values so i do not think my thoughts will be of much help haha.

Yeah strangely enough, addresses and values are crazy easy to find in this game and the addresses themselves work find until you restart the game and from what I noticed, version 1.00 of the games the addresses didn't change as much compared to the latest version which is 1.01.

Yeah its definitely an 8bit address.which means I've been doing everything right, just can't get pointers to work in this game. I tried looking for other codes I could make and still get the same results. Pointers just don't work although, I've only tried making 2 different codes so far. Dispatch and HQ. Might try poking at other areas later on.

It could also be another one of those games that need 2 pointers. Is there any patterns you notice, like somtimes the code starts with "810A..." and other times it starts with "810B..."? Or sometimes the address ends on a 9 and other times it ends on an 8?

If you can find a pattern that splits your dumps in half, try running the 2 different patterns through TempAR separately and see if a pointer code works. You'll have to find the address in-game before testing the pointer and see which group the game is using.

I wanted to make a TempAR tutorial that uses the new TempAR program, but all the simple games I've tried it on actually use this memory shift thing and I don't want to show a tutorial that's WAY more complicated because it doesn't always work, you know?

Yeah I have noticed something like that where the address starts with either 81A or 81B like my previous pic if that's what you mean. For another code I was working on it was 81C1 and 81D1.

Ah. Didn't look at the pic tonight... it's WAY late and I've been watching AGDQ all day XD. But ya, that's exactly what I was talking about. Try searching with dumps that are all "81A..." and see if you can find a pointer that always works for that side. You may need to gather a few extra dumps to make it easier. Or use BullyWiiPlaza's "Universal Pointer Searcher". It works well even with only a few dumps, but you have to write the pointer code yourself (or use my TempAR's vitacheat tab).

would it be too much trouble to ask for some lord of apocalypse cheats like infinite heath and ultimate gauge?

Made 12 dumps the other day and split them up into 6 "A" address dumps and 6 "B" address dumps and couldn't find anything. I'm thinking I may have mixed up my dumps somehow but from what I noticed, there does seem to be a slight difference, in my results at least. Is it common for the same kind of dumps to have completely different number of results? Like the "B" address dumps gave me way way more results than the "A" address dumps, which only had like a few, after hitting "Find Pointers". For "B" address dumps the highest color I can find were pink addresses whereas "A" were blues.

Hard to say. Every game's different, man. May have to dig in a bit deeper and see if there's any more things that look fishy that might show a pattern. Here's some I've found as an example...

Don't Starve had a pointer that was lvl2 pointer, sometimes.... When you load the game, the HP was at this lvl2 pointer, and there was an address next to it that was blank. Other times, the HP address was blank, but the other address was another pointer to the new HP value. So, if the HP was in the first state, the address was a lvl2 pointer, but if the HP wasn't there, it was a lvl3 pointer.

Sword Art Online had a large area in memory that was completely filled with FFFFFFFFs and the HP and things were after that. But sometimes, even midgame, the FFFFFFFFs would trade places with the HP values and so the HP was now BEFORE the FF filled areas.

Freedom Wars had 2 pointers for each code. After finding a pointer for HP, I noticed it didn't always work. So, looking at the pointer in a hex editor, I saw that some of the dumps had the pointer's base in one space, with an FFFFFFFF near it. But in other dumps, the pointer and the FFFFFFFF has switched places.

Would be easier if I could take better screenshots of the memory address. I have checked each address's memory for at least the first 3 rows above and below and they all seemed the same. Next time I'll take another deeper look.

I use HxD on my pc to look at the addresses. The only issue is that the addresses start at 00000000 instead of 81000000, so you have to use a calc or something to get the right addresses.

Could you use the plugin that lets you set your vita screen to your pc? that way you could take the pictures you need via the snippet tool? Or does the screen cast not work while in the vita shell program?
