ROM Hack Question about cheats

[Butterslime]

I'm having a bit of an issue that maybe someone can help me with. So I created my own Dragon quest builders 2 cheats and they worked flawlessly until I updated the game. Now I know that the build id changes and all that and I have that all set, but non of my codes work. Even when i refind the stuff i need and change the amount, nothing. I tried Edizon with other games and it works just fine, but when it comes to DQB2, nothing works. What am I missing? Can anyone shed some light into this small issue if possible.

In an update, the addresses of the codes usually change.
Have you renewed and searched for them ?

 

[Butterslime]

Yeah, I researched the new addresses and found them or atleast the 2 that edizon is giving me. I changed them as I normally would and still nothing. Even did different spots and still wont work.

Are you sure that the Build ID is correct?
Maybe where the Build ID file is, there is still a 2nd file inside.
Check out.

 

[Butterslime]

Yeah, the original Build Id was 1a0b233dc70b7f6e the new one I got from edizon is f311f4b1e6f32be0. Ill upload the 2 files I have maybe someone can find what it is that Im missing. The newer sheet has the two addresses separate just because I dont know which one it is and it'll pinpoint it for me

HEAP or MAIN not confused ?

Or do the 2 items need a pointer?
I never played or cheating the game.
That's why I can't tell you more.

 

[Butterslime]

HEAP. No worries, Im sure Im missing something and thats why I cant get it to work. I even took the whole folder off and started back from scratch and nothing.

 

[merlin555]

Do you have the SX OS ?
If so, go to the CHEAT engine of SX OS and take the RAM editor.

Check the address.
Or is the address dynamic ?

First of all, the game uses dynamic allocated classes -> you need pointer.
And this: https://gbatemp.net/threads/cheat-codes-ams-and-sx-os-add-and-request.520293/page-470#post-8762831

Just because you found something in Heap, doesn't mean it doesn't need a pointer, Heap almost always needs a pointer.

 

[Butterslime]

all this time wasted. You are a saint Falo, thank you both for your help. I shall borrow those cheats since someone smarter went through the trouble of making them.
