    Yes. I have not come across a lot of password-based games, though. A simple text search won't work for games like Crash Bandicoot and Rayman. Don't let those wrong password messages fool you. That can be a way of making you think it doesn't do anything. You can try doing a search for zero, then a not equal to search to see if anything turned on (values such as 1, FF, etc). However, the code is probably being rejected due to not completing the game (with or without cheats), or a piece of coding blocking it from working. I'll check out the game later and see if I can figure it out.

    Thanks for your permission to post the code!

    Does the way you find button cheats also work for passwords?

    I'll hopefully have time to try out your method posted above over the weekend...

    I noticed yesteday, with the hex editor, that the game Mission: Impossible for PSX has 2 more passwords. Only problem is when you enter them, they come up as wrong password.

    I don't know much at all about debuggers.

    About the Medievil II code, I think another one exist because of these options I seen with either a hex editor or cheat engine:
    Go To Level
    View FMV
    Lighting
    Sound Test
    Music
    Speech
    Test Sound

    Super Cheat
    Stored Energy
    Inventory Item
    Gold Pieces

    The space between the options is where the cheats section of the pause menu is.
    All of these options (except lighting) was also on MediEvil 1's second code.
    The text could just be leftovers from the previous game. I had a look at the game again and didn't find anything to access it. It would be nice to use those options, though.

    I would really like for it to be up since people without cheat devices (PS3) can still use the Debug Modes.

    And once again, thanks for all the help/info!
    Feel free to submit it to GameFaqs. The main reason I decided to go about finding button cheats is for those that lack a cheat device, and if I happen to lose mines for the PSX. Another reason is that I felt there were more/some cheats built-in for a game. There had to be a cheat or two they used during testing to breeze through it.

    No problem.

    The Smurfs

    Here is.....well, something

    Can't really get it to do too much as-is


    Smurfs, The [NTSC-U] [SLUS-01008]

    Press L2 or R2 to show special menu
    D009CC5C 0001 - (There's like 4 other joker's for this game)
    3000E274 0007
    D009CC5C 0002
    3000E274 0008

    Note:
    To use, start a new game and choose "piece of cake". Skip the .str video and use the code on the next menu.

    Took me a few minutes to figure out what you meant. I thought the push button code you typed above was another "all planes" code or something. But I get it now.

    First - Enter the all planes code.
    Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, X, Triangle

    Unlock All Planes (PAL)
    3009BC72 0001

    All Planes Unlocked (JPN)
    3009E4F2 0001

    Then - Enter your new code posted above.
    Triangle, X, Right, Left, Right, Left, Down, Up, Down, Up

    Here is the Title Screen after the 2 codes.
    The first code makes the "Wing Over" title turn red.
    The 2nd code makes the 2 options visible...



    Oh damn, the same dude that made the GameShark Pro hacking tools...
    I always thought that app was for PS2 only, I for some reason thought it was only for ELF files or something.

    Oh yeah, by the way.

    You're welcome.

    I was going to pm you about my find, but decided it was best to post it in the forum. That is the only code I found for MediEvil 2. I was expecting to find another code just like the first game, but nothing. What gave you the idea that there might be another code?

    I find the button cheats by searching for known codes in the RAM (if none is known, I trace text such as debug, cheat, etc). The majority of games that I have checked use Normal or Reverse joker command values. Some games require the use of a debugger to pinpoint where the button cheat(s) is controlled (I use PCSX Agemo Debugger). I use the PEC plug-in to hack my codes and dump the memory (Ctrl + D = memdump.hex). PS2DIS is my hex editor for PEC allowing me to view the coding on-the-fly (press Ctrl + J).

    PS2DIS:
    http://reocities.com/siliconvalley/station/8269/ps2dis/

    Agemo PCSX Debugger:
    http://www.romhacking.net/utils/475/

    A method that I have found useful when using ps2dis, is to trace the joker command(s) (button activator as some prefer it to be called) addresses looking for any pad checks. An example of a pad check for Primal Rage:

    In-game reset (soft reset):

    lui v1, $800b
    addiu v1, v1, $5828 [P1 Normal Joker command = 800B5828]
    andi v0, v0, $0900 [Select + Start]
    bne v0, zero, $8002b7c4

    Another method programmers use to mask button cheats is with code words. They can use silly text like 1337CREW, CANCER, SS44OQX23, etc.

    SS44OQX23 can be represented as the following:

    This is not a real code, but Duke Nukem: Land of the Babes worked this way.

    1 = L1
    2 = L2
    3 = R1
    4 = R2
    O = Circle
    Q = Square
    S = Select
    X = X

    Compass directions combined with the S(quare), T(riangle), X, O(circle) buttons:

    N for North = Up directional
    E for East = Right directional
    S for South = Down directional
    W for West = Left directional

    If you find a possible code, test it everywhere in the game (bootup screens, during game play, etc) on controllers 1 and 2. Some codes are stored in reverse (bottom to top in ps2dis). It helps to half word the address (press h). When searching for an address in ps2dis you can use 80012348 or 00012348.

    I'll try it out later when I get off from work...

    Actually, you are just the guy I was wanting to talk to ^.^

    You did some work on the 2 MediEvil's, but I believe there is a 2nd push-button code in MediEvil II just like the first game.

    Also, how exactly are you finding pushbutton codes like you do?

    Here's something for you to look into Hybrid, since you have the Japanese release.

    Here is something I just came across in the USA version, maybe the JPN one still has something intact...
