Hacking VitaCheats Shinobido 2: cheat stopped working after installing DLC

[LucasKun]

Hi Guys,

Can someone help me to fix the cheat codes for Shinobido 2 Revenge of Zen?

The cheats were working fine before I installed the DLC. And now most of cheats doesn't work anymore.

I need the cheat for x99 items back to work.

Can someone update the list or maybe tell me how to fix the code?

Many thanks!

The DLC make the address move a bit, but since you have the money cheat, you can search for the new money code, then subtract them to get the difference (use calculator on hex mode), apply that difference to the rest of address
Example:
Cheat A old at 11 22 33, Cheat A new at 12 22 33, subtract it you get 10000. Cheat B old at 44 55 66, add 10000 to it to get cheat B new at 45 55 66.

Thank you for prompt reply!

that was a brilliant idea but the money code is one that wasn’t changed! I did a search and check the numbers are still the same.

I’m noobie and I’m trying to figure out how the search works.

I did some, I’ve found 2 results for an specific item but when I create the new cheat simply doesn’t work.

I’m not sure what is happening but what you said makes sense, the cheat seems to me moved to something further as dlc brings new items and slots.

I couldn’t find tutorial so any help is welcome.

thanks for trying!

Easy mode: Use cheats in the version you originally made the codes for and give yourself... Whatever it is, like items. Make a note, then update and install the DLC. You can find your items the same way you did originally. Just drop/sell/whatever, one by one, and search using the less than ( < ). It really shouldn't take long, given you're searching for the right type of value. Don't just assume an address is 32 or 16-bit. If an item number is less than 255, you should always use 8-bit, because you never know what values might be next to it and give you bad result because of that.
Other number formats are harder to explain, like float values. Float values are great in that they're always at least 32-bit. And Vitacheat does have a way for you to input those types of number in a more recognizable way. When entering the value you're looking for, press square and it will switch between hex (1-9, A-F), decimal (1, 2, 64, etc), and float (100 dec = 42C80000 float). The wrinkle, however, is that Vita games (especially little indie games) use 64-bit float values (100 dec = 4059000000000000). Those are easy to search for, though, since most of the time, you just search for the first eighth places of the value (100 dec = 4059000000000000 float = 40590000 search value).
Pretty easy, however a lot (and I mean a f**kin LOT) of little indie games use 64-bit float values and pointers, so when searching for pointers, you'd have to use the address 4h lower in order to properly search for it in TempAR and Universal Pointer Searcher.
Example:

Your Infinite Health Code search result
$0000 817A6C8C 40590000

would need to be changed in TempAR when searching for pointers to this:
$0000 817A6C88 00000000

Also, make sure you're not missing a flag value somewhere. Another address that's required for the item to actually appear, or whatever.

Best way to find that, in my opinion, is to use fuzzy search for 32-bit addresses. Empty your inventory except for the first item you ever get in the game. Video games are predictable in this way, and those items are usually fairly plentiful, so they're a good way to get started. Most games with any kind of inventory system will usually give you a health potion or whatever first. Sell the item off, and search "not equal" ( <> ). Buy or sell or whatever, searching each time for the appropriate change (to be safe, try to stick with ( <> ) and ( = ) for your search types. Do this a few times, then make sure you still have just that item in your inventory.
Now go do stuff in the game. Walk a bit, kill some dude, whatever. Just don't pick up any items. Every now and then (frequency is up to you. I'm impatient, so I do small things and more searches), as long as your inventory HAS NOT changed, do equal ( = ) searches. Then do something with item. Either get another of the same item, or get rid of the one you have somehow, then do a not equal ( <> ) search. Then repeat the process of equal ( = ) searches while keeping inventory the same. It should, at the very least come up with a bunch of codes in the same area, and then you can start going to work.

Example:

Search results:
81453780 00630001
81453784 FFFFFFFF
81453788 00000064

From there, you can find out which results produce the desired effect. In the code above, 0001 would be the item identifier, 0063 would be the number of that item in my inventory (0063 hex = 99 dec). The FFFFFFFF value could be the flag that tells the game that the item should appear. But it might not be. Same with the 00000064. That could be a flag, too.
From here, it gets more complicated, because those values could mean all sorts of things, depending on the game. So you have to use trial and error. Basic number of items codes are usually easy.
Like I said, it ramps up from here. My suggestion would be to check out the folks in the Vitacheat thread as well as the Vitacheat database on GitHub. I learned a lot about making codes by looking at others' codes and trying to dissect how they got them.

Worked many thanks you both!

I can’t post more details as I’m new member! I’ll do later!

Well done! It worked!

I did the search as you said, using 8bit as value type (I had no idea about that).

ZeroSene mentioned that the numbers could have moved after the dlc and this also gave me the idea:

This is the code I wanted to fix:

_V0 99x Items (1st 100 slots)
$4001 81545E1A
$0064 000000C0​

The cheat title above says “99x items for the first 100 slots“. So I guessed that the first line for the code above was the first slot, and the second line the last slot (maybe)

So, I made a search for the first slot (after the dlc) and updated the first line of the old code to the new code, you can see the difference:

4001 81545E1A (Old 1st item slot)
4001 815574E6 (new 1st item slot)


Because the code was successful, I didn’t touched the last line (for the last slot)

Also, the old code for Level, SP and Stamina was only working for the male Ninja character, using your tips I was able to find it for the female as well!


I forgot to mention that I started to play this game in order to help the Fandom gaming community, we’re doing a kind of game encyclopedia. So I need infinite items to save some time preparing the game text files.

Thank you very much you both!
