I believe you could.. I dunno what the exact name of the data file is, but if you open the folder decrypted in VitaShell, you should just be able to copy that file out, then do the same with the US version and copy over the same file.

I've tried that, when copying across different versions (EU and US) the game won't detect any save file.

So I increased the dump size for Dragon's Crown to 0x96000000, set the Maximum Offset to 9000 and included negatives and finally got some greens and lots of them. Still can't find a working gold address yet. TempAR really needs a save option, v6 Vitacheats can't come soon enough.

I've been able to find the 6-7 addresses as well, however if i change any of them (one at a time) the grame crashes when changing zone (as i mentioned earlier), i guess i could try with 16 and 8 bit searches.

If you find some insight on how to find & edit skill points and/or items do let us know. :)

*edit*

No luck at all with 8/16 bit.
Freezing the skill point values without changing them doesn't stop them from being spent and also cause a crash (same as before).

Yeah it sounds like the base version of Dragon's Crowns is completely different than the updated version. It was way easier for me to find the SP address on the non updated version of DC.

I wonder if the 1.06 version would be equally easier to work with, given that the latest cheat codes are for that version. :unsure:

Hi, I've been trying to make a codes for [PCSE00903] Sword Art Online:Hollow Realization and [PCSE00465] Sword Art Online:Hollow Fragment. The problem is that the codes I make only make the actual value flash when I turn them on.. I've searched for people having the same problem, but no luck.. Is this the right place to ask about this?

Sure.
Depending on what kind of code you're making, it may require a couple different things.
What it sounds like is you've found a code where you'd have a VISUAL value and need an ACTUAL value. So if you're searching for, say a visual value of 100 (00000064), you're going to have two actual codes to worry about. If you're search only turns up 1 result for your value, but doesn't lock it in, you may need to search for the FLOAT version of the value. In my example, it would be 42C80000. Values like that are common for like health bars and various gauges in a lot of games, but sometimes numerical values use them, too.
Vita games use both 32- and 64-bit float values, which can really ruin your day when searching for codes, since VitaCheat doesn't allow you to search for 64-bit float values.
--However--
You CAN search for at least the first eight digits of a 64-bit float value, and it'll usually work out pretty well. A LOOOOOOT of indie games use 64-bit float values. Like... A LOT.
Here's a link to the floating point converter I use. It's pretty easy to use:
Decimal to float: https://babbage.cs.qc.cuny.edu/IEEE-754.old/Decimal.html
32-bit Float to Decimal: https://babbage.cs.qc.cuny.edu/IEEE-754.old/32bit.html
64-bit Float to Decimal: https://babbage.cs.qc.cuny.edu/IEEE-754.old/64bit.html

Also, don't be afraid to crank up your search range. Some games go past the 91000000 address range, so that may help you find more results.

Thank you. This is a big help. I guess I do have to values to worry about, from what you said about Visual and Actual codes.. I not that great at it, so I guess I'm SOL until someone makes the codes..:blush:

DUDE, I actually found the right one!
See? I toldja to keep trying.
Congratulations. You've taken your first step to being able to make your own codes consistently. Making consistently working cheats for the Vita can be difficult, but once you get the hang of searching and getting an idea of what you're looking for, you can at least make cheats that work right now, and sometimes that's all you really need.
But if you keep at it and take advantage of the info @Roah has posted on his GitHub wiki, you can learn more advanced stuff, too.
Just try not to get discouraged. I've made literally thousands of cheat codes for PSP games, and even I have a lot of trouble with consistent codemaking for the Vita.

I've been working on cheats for a while i have found pointers in a few small games like rayman origins (inf life, max lums, stop timer, inf super punch), and plants vs zombies i have inf sun but can't get money to work right quite yet, I've found some for soul sacrifice delta, one piece pirate warriors 3, borderlands 2 and a few other games as well. I wanted to ask if anyone would like to test them before i submit them to roah's github, also i have all my findings logged in text files for each game. for those of you who want to learn to find cheats i can send you my logs if you'd like just let me know. Last but not least i had a question regarding the game titan souls, i cannot for the life of me find out how to search for health since you die with one hit, any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
