Hello guys, I been playing Metal Max Return on Snes9x and I have reached the end of the game with all the best items. And so I been looking for a way to find the address/value of these items so I can compile a list and apply them to a new game to experiment. Haven't had much luck yet because the way the in-game inventory is set up differently than the traditional RPGs. It's divided into two type: character and tank.
the tank inventory consists of different categories for each type of parts (Main gun, Aux gun, Engine, etc) Since these are stored as individual items even duplicates are separated, not exactly like traditional RPGs with the # slot inventory (i.e. Chrono Trigger) and quantity setup.
Using cheat engine, I tried a regular unknown initial search +changing/unchanged value setup, narrowed it down to a few addresses, but as I changed items and looked at the changed values, they don't seem to be consistent (i.e. item A has value 3, change to B it turns to 10, then back to A and it changes to 5 and different each time) which probably means those weren't the address.
Later on I was fiddling with character equipment and I did come across an address that showed me the value of a equipment when equipped/unequipped. Since I heard most RPG items are usually stored in one byte, I went through all the numbers and managed to record down the values of the best equipment's. Unfortunately, this didn't really work with tank related parts.
With that said, I'm hoping someone can give me some pointers on how to look for these kinds of individual item addresses. And if anyone can find those values for tank parts, very much appreciated. Thank you for your time. Cheers.
