  • New passwords?

    I've found several new passwords for a Genesis game called Jelly Boy. Before I finish with them, I just wanted to make sure no one has already found any secret/cheat passwords for this game. So far I found cheat passwords that let you start with more lives, invincibility, and a hilarious giant head for your character.

    Mez, if you (or anyone else) hasn't already found these, I'll finish working on them and post soon.

    I don't recall finding any for that game, nice job by the way.
    Checked GameFaqs boards and my blog and didn't see anything either.

    I did come across some push-button cheats for the SNES game Pinocchio (U), but don't know if they do anything or not.
    Only 3 of them are listed on GameFaqs and only one of the new ones visually do anything.
    If anyone who hacks SNES would want to mess around with them, be my guest.

      I'm going to bed right now, but will post a quick picture of one of the password cheats in action. It shows the normal character, and the character with an over sized human head. I'm sure it's the head of one of the programmers.

      This is for Jelly Boy (Genesis)

        By the way, when I am looking for passwords in a ROM that are in plain text, I use this simple .bat file I put together:

        Code:
        @echo off
        echo Searching for the word(s) 'code'.
        echo Search in progress, please be patient . . .
        findstr /m /i /s "code" *.bin > !code_results.txt
        if %errorlevel%==0 (
        type !code_results.txt
        ) else (
        del !code_results.txt
        )
        echo Finished . . .
        pause
        If the ROMs are extracted this will scan them for whatever text your looking for in the file type indicated.
        If you open it with notepad and use Ctrl+H just replace the word code with pass and replace .bin with whatever the file extension is.
        The example above looks for the word code inside of .bin files and list the results to a text file.

                Yea, Mez and Tone should post there findings on tcrf... so the info can be shared/enjoyed more with others and so they can be credited as the finders. I'd hate to see someone else take credit for their findings.

                  I've done 3 pages so far on tcrf, and I swore I would never do another. Too much trouble.

                  I will however, post the new passwords on GameFAQs.

                  Here they are:

                  Jelly Boy (E)(Proto) Genesis/MD

                  Enter the password at the password screen. When you're done, click "OK" and you should see "Cheat activated". Then click "No" to exit.

                  MR-F-------------------- = Giant human head of Fergus McGovern pasted over your character's head

                  WHCTLH WMFPCD RWTNWW TTCTLW = Start with 10 lives

                  STSHTY NRTCLW FHSMGS SHLWTN = Start with 20 lives

                  YRRTLM WFCMGW HBVCBW HLGHWD = Start every life with one music note (temporary invincibility)

                    I've heard this from a couple people. Someone should mention it to the owner or staff and suggest to them to see if it's possible to make adding stuff more easily and efficient. I wonder how many other people found cool stuff but didn't want to go through the hassle of adding it on that site.

                      Another thing I don't like about tcrf is they really don't give credit anywhere for the original finders of the content. AFAIK, the only way you can tell who had anything to do with a page/content, is if there is some tiny text in the bottom corner that says "Source: xxxx". Pretty vague. Most pages don't even have that.

                        Adding pages is super easy, but I would understand finding it daunting if you are not familiar with how wikis work.

                        As for the credit, you can see who added what by clicking the history tab found on each page. Now, if you want your name to be visible on the actual page as the person who discovered it, then yeah, all you can do is add the "source" text, winch is more than enough in my opinion.

                          Like I mentioned earlier, I've already made 3 separate pages, so I'm able to figure it out. The thing that pissed me off the most was some of the messages I would receive literally 2 to 3 minutes after I would post a new page. Not too friendly for the most part.

                            Things need to be categorized, those are what the messages are for. For example, whenever you upload images you need to categorize them.

                            I know it's annoying, but wiki pages are edited by regular users, so things need to be tight or else everything becomes a mess.

                              I'm glad you're happy with tcrf. I will never post there again.
