@ReyVGM: I think it'll help if we knew the offsets of game's ending text. You said someone dumped the text of the endings to a text file.

Yeah, but it was a plain text file taken from a U64EMU (formerly KIAME) save state. I don't know what method you can use to find out the addresses/offsets, but if you need something to compare, then just beat the game with Fulgore and perform an Ultimate (Fatality) on Jago or Orchid or neither. That will give you 3 endings for one character.

Well there is one way I would think to possibly uncover the routine that selects the ending. It would be to set a break on read of the character address for when it is read after defeating Gargos and work through everything that follows shortly after that. That should be the first step before the ending is selected after that point due to the conditions being met. I would assume there is a second variable being set by conditions (what you did in the game) being met that will serve as an index of the ending selected. If nolberto wants to give it a shot it's his choice, but that method should lead to your requested hack if the endings were ever even fleshed out beyond just text.

[ReyVGM]

Yes, you have to "raise flags" during gameplay to change the ending. However, I don't know what flags one has to enable to trigger some endings. So it's best to start with Fulgore and do what I mentioned above. Once you figure out where those endings are located, then it would be easier to find the others, right?

I don't really know how to hack with MAME other than easy stuff like Infinite Energy. Not really well versed with command line stuff.

And I believe the endings are inside the ROM, with images and everything. From what the dev told me, they just didn't have time to "tie in" all the endings. So I guess all the story and images were done and inserted.

Thanks alot for the MAME codes. I'm not sure if you misread the platform for the last game I requested which was Pac-Man (Tengen) for the NES. It's cool that you made it for the MAME platform too though. But if you get a chance, if you could make that code for the NES.

(NES) Pac-Man - Tengen

• Pac-Man Moves Manually Instead of Automatically.

@OldSchoolgamer: Your first line threw me off I just assume that all games were for MAME. I didn't looked at the parenthesis. Anyways here you go:

I would please like to request a MAME cheat code for:

• (MAME) Xybots
  • Walk Through Walls

*That "Walk Through Walls" code will come in handy for that game. Each level is a maze and it can be frustrating trying to find your way to the exit portal in each level. I started playing that game and I'm on level 18. I saved my game and plan on continuing my gameplay once that "Walk Through Walls" code is made. The game will take way too long and will be too tideous to play through to the game's last level, which is level 95, without a "Walk Through Walls" code. I know this game has no ending, but the last level is 95, so after I beat that level, I'll consider that beating the game.

Yeah, that's what I figured. Thanks again for the codes.

Nolberto, I am curious... What is the most difficult cheat code you have ever made for any platform? And what is the most difficult cheat code you have ever made for the NES, SNES, and Genesis?

*If this post gets alot of feedback from different users, maybe I'll start a new thread in the Lounge with this question.

So far Bucky O'Hare for the NES. It took me and Abystus like 4 hours to make a Hit Anywhere code that worked correctly.

This is one sick game.

This one should work better than the previous one.

Do you mean that this game is awesome? Or do you mean this game has alot of gore?
