I did a handful of CD games. Not really looking to do more as these are a pain. They need a hex editor to apply.

Grab HxD portable for hex editor:
wayback.mh-nexus.de/downloads/HxDen.zip

Open your bin/iso whatever in HxD
Click Search/Find
Change the Datatype to hex

Okay, new Night Creatures patch is up.

[Localizations, Games, Apps, Docs / Re: Patching PC Engine Games for Infinite Lives]

I've been asked for CD patches before. I hadn't really tried it due to lack of interest. Apparently the process is the same but it's more time consuming. I also don't have the games or a PCE CDROM for that matter.

With that being said, here's a PPF for infinite energy for Lords of Thunder. It tested successfully on Magic Engine. I don't know how or if this works if you aren't using the same source file I am. If someone could try this on hardware I'd appreciate it.

Awesome, thanks! I'll finally beat some harder games (shame on me but oh well)

Sure thing. Cheats always seem to be controversial. I am not here to debate their merit.

My perspective is that I am older, work too much, an have far less free time than I once did. When  I sit down to game I like to play games through to the ending.

Hi! My account got approved.  I make cheats for use on the Turbo Everdrive and also for the Master System. These allow you to have infinite lives/energy/etc on real hardware.

My thread on the Krikkz forum should always be current:

To patch a game:

Download LunarIPS (Windows), MultiPatch (Mac)
Download wayback://srktt.com/files/pcecheat.zip
Patch a matching .pce rom with the .ips file

Here is a quick tutorial:

We want Magic Engine formatted codes. Let's do Batman for example:
http://gscentral.org/codelist.php?sys=81&dev=81&game=12792672

Infinite Lives - F833AA:2

Drop F8 from the beginning and :2 from the end to get the RAM value for lives - 33AA

1. Open Mednafen (emulator) by dropping the Batman rom on to its executable
2. Hit Alt+D to open the debugger
3. Type Shift+W for breakcode write
4. Type 33AA and hit enter
5. Hit Alt+D to hide the debugger
6. Get killed to decrease the lives value. This will bring the debugger back up
7. Open Batman in a hex editor (HxD)
8. Open a find, toggle to hex, and type the hex on the right hand side:
ceaa333003
9. Change the value of the CE. I used a AD to change the decrease to a load (basically does nothing)
10. Save the rom and reopen it to see if it worked
