The Cheat Table isn't working for me. I'm getting an Error of "INFO: AOB not found. Has the game function be initiated?"

Cheat Engine Version : 7.5
CEMU Version: 2.0-73

Yes. When the save is loaded.

CPU: AMD FX 8350
TLDR; Your CPU does not support a key CPU instruction which causes the activate script to not be able to find the AOB. I'll try to fix it at some point so you can at least activate the trainer.



Technical Version:

So I did some digging into some CPU dumps of your processor and it looks to me like your CPU doesn't support the MOVBE opcode. I use pattern scanning to identify key memory locations, but since your CPU doesn't support the instruction, CEMU needs to compile the code in a way that will let your CPU run it without MOVBE. As you may be able to guess, this will mess with the pattern scanning as the AOB is not what it supposed to be. This is why a lot of scripts will not work for you, including the activate script.

Having said that, I could patch it for you so that you can at least activate the table and modify some values. However, the scripts will not work as I would have to rewrite them completely.

I've used Cheat Engine scripts a load of times for other games. Not with CEMU. This would be a first trying to use it with CEMU. But other Games and emulators all work fine with scripts and everything. This is the only time I've come across this issue.

Honestly. The only thing I wanted to use this for was the Nintendo Gallery. I missed taking a picture of one of the boss monsters. And decided I'd rather cheat the gallery to completion than have that space sit empty. x.x;

Hey n0ted, can't send you a PM cause I'm too new here, but can your table be used to quickly advance though the story & have items & such flagged by the game properly if you just want to be at a certain point in the game with both important & optional items you can acquire at that point without breaking anything or glitching the game out?

With the current state of the table, I'm not quite sure as I've never tried. But as you've already alluded to, just giving yourself items does not trigger flags associated with item that should be triggered when acquired. Having said that some of the events use items as flags. As for which ones these are, I do not know. I haven't touched this game in a while so I'm not as fresh as I used to be. If you really want to the know, the speed running community would know all about this.

As for flags and event flags, I do know where the game saves and loads the flags for each area. The only problem is I don't know what each flag does what, as often they are binary flags. Figuring that out would take a long time (and to document too).

Do you know if any save editors or an easy way to mod the game exists for the HD version?

I do not, sorry.

Can these cheats be made to work on Wii U?
As of the way they are now, no. But they technically can be converted to WiiU codes. However, they will require you to know how the Cafe codetypes and memory work. That is to say, I am not going to convert these as I have moved on from this game and I prefer to emulate games.

Ah so all this hassle just for it being emulation?
