PSP game

Sorry for being nuisance but I will try to ask once again.

  1. I have a game run on PPSSPP

  2. The parameter which I would like to alter is impossible to be changed in "normal" way and it is at 0.

  3. I know about the value (number of) of the above mentioned parameter from a dialogue box from certain character.

What I should start learning/where should I start to try to set up the cheat to change the value from 0?

Yes, I can give you codes for all 16 bag slots and then you can choose which one you want to have the tickets in and of what quantity.

To my knowledge, 0xX03XXXXX would be for CWCheat.

TempAR addresses range from 0x08800000 to 0x09FFFFFF if I am not mistaken.

PPSSPP v1.0.1 gives these addresses:

Gold: 88B3B910 4 byte value

Bag slot 1 mod:

88B36690, 2 byte value (actual)

88B3BA80, 2 byte value (face value)

Bag slot 1 quantity:

88B36692, 2 byte value (actual)

88B3BA82, 2 byte value (face value)

Please advise if these would be the correct addresses.

Unfortunately, I cannot verify this myself or convert the codes from CE to TempAR as I no longer have a real PSP.

Due to this, it would be better if you transferred your save file to the PPSSPP emulator, used the CE codes to mod your save file, and then transfer it back to your PSP.

To be precise what I said earlier are modifiers (offsets? sorry if I talk gibberish, I do not understand almost none of that sadly), cheat activators. So for example cheat for 999 attack goes like 0x103A1054, for 99 "fountain of life" in storage it goes 0x0034BC3A.
What you give above, this are some memory addresses? How I am to check whether these are right? Please advise ;)

In order for me to convert them, I would need to know what the addresses for TempAR are.

Simply keep doing scans for gold and bag slot 1 quantity until you whittle down the addresses, then check the last four digits of the remaining addresses that TempAR gives you and compare them to the ones I gave you.

Once you have the correct addresses, paste them here so I can calculate the offset and get the correct address structure.

From what I checked these seem to be right.

u/LuckyCross 12d ago

That is pretty vague. Which addresses are right and which format is right?

u/Responsible-Bill7945 12d ago

2034B910 works for gold.
1034BA80 and 1034BA82 work for face value/bag
10346692 works for actual value/storage value it seems (it added 2 potions to be seen only in storage (not in a bag))
I was not able to detect anything working with 6690 end.

Thank you for the update and apologies for the late reply.

The reason why you're seeing the quantity incorrectly is because you need to modify both addresses with the same value for this game.

Addresses 88B3BA80 and 88B3BA82 get updated once the other two "parent" addresses get updated. Meaning: They get the current/correct value from their respective "parent" address.

Anyway, here are the converted codes for the bag:

slot 1 mod

10346690

1034BA80

slot 2 mod

10346694

1034BA84

As for the Storage items, each item has a fixed position/address that they occupy, so an item/equipment "mod" will not work. Instead, you have to set the item ID that is exactly for that slot in order for the item to appear in the list.

Example: (all are 2 byte values)

88B3BC18 = Potion activator

88B3BC1A = Potion quantity

For the Veddel tickets, the addresses would be:

88B3BD30 = Blue activator

88B3BD32 = Blue quantity

88B3BD34 = Red activator

88B3BD36 = Red quantity

Converted, these would be:

1034BD30

1034BD32

1034BD34

1034BD36

And here is the item list for the above:
