Finding Raw Codes with Pcsx2 0.9.6 possible ?

[Maori-Jigglypuff]

There are some Codes for God of War 1 + 2 which i couldn't find with ps2dis.Now I will try to find them with Pcsx2 0.9.6 on the PC.How can I do that exactly? Do I need a certain Tool ?

0.9.4 may actually be better, as I haven't been able to find a solid hooking method for 0.9.6. In any case, you can try RenegadeEx. You'll probably need to read the instructions for finding your own ram start (where the PS2 ram actually begins within the emulator's memory). I think there's also a buggy tool built into PCSX2 0.9.6 that might help.

If you can, you could try using either "Cheat Engine" or "TSearch" while the game is running on the emulator, and find codes with them. All you might need to do is find an already existing code so you know exactly how far off the codes you find with the emulator are.
For example, the memory might show God Of War 2's health at 0085a848, even though you know it isn't in that exact spot in the game for the PS2. You probably will need at least 1 known code for a comparison.

When I used Cheat Engine to search for a value I already knew it gave me two different addresses each time.
I could be wrong but I think every time you run a new program in front of pcsx2 the address changes say I run firefox, cheat engine, pcsx2 close them all then run cheat engine, firefox, pcsx2 the address changes.

The game could have pointers. Also, cheat engine is very good at finding pointers. I made a cheat table for aliens vs predator 1 and house of the dead 2, a lot of codes involved pointers that I probably wouldn't have found any easier way than with cheat engine's pointer scan.
