VisitntX's PC-Engine Cheats

These are some fixes for some issues Bloodreign found. So I just deleted them from above and I write them here again, so this doesn't become a mess.

Check the post above this for a couple of fixes.

The RAM code for Pac-Land that makes the fly effect crash the game, I replace it with a ROM code that works like a charm, tested trought all the first trip and part of the second without any issue. If you keep pressing the jum button pacman will appears from below, this is not a cheat issue but how the game is programmed.

The parasol invincibility needed one more code, the detection failed for being in a diff block of code for when the player is fighting a boss (probably other enemies, but not sure) and was doing the thing with the parasol to kill the enemy, in that moment it become vulnerable. That was fixed with the addition of one code.

There was a report of a issue with the invincibility for Kiki Kaikai, for some reason I was not able to reproduce it. It seems that when a boss shot a power the player was like locked to that shot after it pass throuht. The extra code I did the last time should had fix it and the bosses. I played all throught the game and was able to beat it without any issue. The only side effect is that if you fall in the sea you will be locked there. The reason for this is that the water is at a diff level of tiles, so you can fall, but as you are invincible you will not die and being traped around there cuz the tile change for go up again to the plataform was never there (you're supposed to die, no reason to doing a way to go up again).

Tonight is a proper invincibility code for Kiki Kaikai. It's a ROM hack due to the huge issues and problems the RAM codes have in these kind of games.
It should give a complete invincibility, but was not tested throught all the game.
If you wonder why there are so many codes the answer is that each enemy type have their own colission detection code. And then there are those to block the music from being stoped.
And also the water can kill you so now you can fall without being afraid of hang there forever and start from zero. The reason why the water kills you now is because I didn't change the code when dying for this one, otherwise will be the same hang as the RAM codes.
So in short this should be a perfect invincibility for this game. No graphics glitches, no vulnerabilities, no music stoping and dying when fall to the water.

Thanks for the fixes man, really appreciate being able to play the game without worrying about hiccups in the game.

[VisitntX]

You're welcome. It was no problem at all. That one was for my honor, stupid game.
With my official cheats codes tester posting that, it means the code is perfect, a perfect invincibility.

Infinite Lives

Never Lose Armor
1f0b58 01
1f0b5a 02

Always Have Gold Armor
1f0b58 01
1f0b5a 02

Bumping this to say these last two codes are the same, you can't keep gold armor with the second set of codes, it reverts you to regular armor and you need gold armor to access the Psycho Cannon in loop 2, you have to disable this armor or Gold armor cheat if you want to get the gold armor then the super weapon, otherwise you'll never get the weapon at all.

The game's ending also shows normally that the enemies can be made to pass through Arthur withour Arthur getting hit nor losing any armor, so perhaps there is a way to get total invincibility in the game, though there exists no code to get this way in a normal game.

[VisitntX]

Oh, never notice it, I will have to look again to the values for the gold armour, for some reason I lose it and mess it with the infinite. I can think in a way to an invincibility.
The problem was that the cheat file created by mednafen is a complete mess, and since a couple of versions they fixed a problem in where cheats were not added correctly sometimes, the names were cleaned. The format the file I attached here for that emu was given by me, but it seems I did a little mistake with that game. Thanks god it was the only one with a shared address and changed values I used.

[Pugsy]

Here's a ROM kill of the sprite collision routine, not sure what emulators it will work on - possibly mednafen, but it works fine on MESS.

17ADA 00 Invincibility (you can still die by falling into gaps)

[VisitntX]

I think it will not work on Magicengine, as it seems the emu uses the value of the MPR in hex and not the converted way as PC-Engine map the memory. But I can be wrong.

Ok, I tested it, and it doesn't work on Magicengine. I will make it for ME later.

Remember that those are for magicengine.

Bloodreign, thanks for pointing my mistake.

[Bloodreign]

Seems as though using ROM invincibility is good enough, RAM makes it so no chests ever appear.


(and you are very welcome)

[VisitntX]

Ready, removed the RAM one.

[Bloodreign]

Perfection achieved in the codes for this game, nice job VisitntX.

[VisitntX]

Wonderful, glad you were able to beat the game.
