The 1.2 version randomly locks up on opl 0.9.2

The version before that works fine.

What game are you running in OPL? Which cheats are enabled when it crashes? Not sure what would cause it to crash in the newer version, but being able to replicate the environment that it crashes in will help me debug the issue. If it's on a specific level or area in the game, that would be useful to know too.

On a slightly unrelated note I now own a PS2 TOOL to aid in debugging this and other homebrew. Additional steps need to be done to load and debug code compiled with the homebrew SDK, so I don't have it setup yet.

The thing is, it freezes while opl is trying to load/startup. Not while in-game.

Tested OPL v0.9.2-GSM with CheatDevice v1.1 and v1.2 and couldn't get it to crash. What OPL version are you trying to use? Can you give me an example of which cheats you had enabled when it crashed on you?

[47iscool]

Can't remember what all I used. It was RE4, so it could be the hook code. But it works fine with the version before 1.2

GSM option (HD, Pal, NTSC) must be off or will freeze the OPL, this happens in all versions of the device cheat or Codebreaker.

v1.2.1 has been released.
Changes
General

• Attempt to automatically install engine hook if game doesn't have a 9-type enable code
• Press start in cheat lists to go directly to the main menu
• Prevent too many codes being enabled
• Display error messages with prompt boxes
• Display free space in save manager

Graphics

• Better font rendering with anti aliasing
• Fix game list being rendered before main menu was cleared from the screen

Code

• Remove storage.c. Use stdio functions instead
• Use proper vsync handler
• Remove unnessasry gsKit_set_primalpha() call
• Correct object colors
• Free resources after loading PNG texture
• Fix warnings

See the first post for a download link. Enjoy!

Edit: The initial release was faulty, but a revised ZIP has been uploaded that fixes the issue. ps2-packer generated a bugged executable that crashed on real consoles, but I've now switched too NRLPack. Thanks go to krHACKen for suggesting the alternative packer, which was able to compress the elf even better than ps2-packer could! Nice

Not booting on mine either. So just best to wait for 1.3?

I've updated the ZIP on GitHub with a working release.

Here's a project I've been working on for the last few months:
Cheat Device for PS2
[ATTACH=CONFIG]3085[/ATTACH]
Cheat Device is a game enhancer for PlayStation 2 games, similar to Action Replay, GameShark, and CodeBreaker. It supports booting retail, disc based games as well as ELF files such as OpenPS2Loader or ESR.

Dear root670,

I have tried but it doesn't work ....displays a black screen. Meanwhile, I had to install a old version again

I question whether there is any solution.

Kind regards.

Newest version works with me. Also I use uLaunchElf 4.41d, the newer versions have issues with me.
