How to modify certain codes to become TRUE inifinite?

[hihofai]

Elloo...
I would like to ask and learn... how to make certain codes, specifically in ammo to become infinite?
I mean TRUE infinite as in instead of having the ammo counter of 9999, I want to change it into the INF symbol.
Is it possible? I did a few times in some RE games and it worked without the Codebreaker loaded...
But in this game, I'm not sure how... Here's one of the sample codes I got it from Codetwinks...
It's a game from PS2, Extermination...

Infinite Ammo-Shotgun
1AE16DCC 0000270F <--- 270F is 9999, so how to change it into inf symbol?

Infinite Ammo-Flame Thrower
2A1F5C11 00630063 <--- this one too, but I don't understand why is double 63 instead of 270F...
and I also hope how to make it into inf symbol as well.. since this one use % too.

So in short, how to make these 2 codes to have a true Inf ammo?
All advices and help are greatly appreciated. THank you.

There is no hex number for infinite, but whether it's possible depends on the game. If it's possible for a different weapon to have inf.ammo, you might trick the game into thinking every weapon is that one when it comes to ammo count.

Hmm... sounds hard... and don't really get what you mean. =P

both rimsky82 and bungholio (at cmp) told you the basic the same answer.

1. depends on the game is programmed with infinite count.

You want TRUE Infinite? make an ASM version so the value NEVER Decreases but there will be no Infinite Symbol, RE games for the most part had that programmed into it but most games don't.

Yeah, you're asking for an aesthetic tweak for the most part. If the font or assets for that part of the display include an Infinity symbol, there are ways you might get it displayed. If it doesn't exist, there's an outside chance it could be added or inserted somewhere. Either way it's kind of a waste of time, unless the existing codes are deficient somehow.

[hihofai]

Hmmm.... Alright.. Thanks all of you for the reply.

Used string feature dood
You can even put more icon like this=♥

Used string feature? O.o

[Mezmorize]

I think what he is attempting to say is this:
Used (the) string feature (in ArtMoney).

But like the others have told you, if that symbol is not programmed into the game, your not gonna be able to find it.

Wokie.. got it,

I know you mean "true" infinite by games actually having a cheat already built in that you were hoping could be applied to any item in those games, but unless a game has evidence that tells you it can give you that saveable infinite item without a cheat device, you won't know for certain. Resident Evil would make you think it's possible for other items because of the little infinity symbol you unlock for a few weapons. Then you mess around with the other items' nearby bytes a little and you accidentally notice they have an infinity symbol and can be saved. Some games may have had it and just removed it as an accessible cheat, but it's another thing you won't know without trying on your own. The best you can do is use memory scanning to find infinite ammo for things in games, and then maybe messing with the nearby addresses and giving them different values, saving the game, and then loading it without cheats on. You never know for sure where a game developer left something in the save data. There's a code to allow you to kill enemies with 1 hit in Silent Hill 4 that is saveable. I didn't expect to be able to save weird monster creation class tree stuff in Dark Cloud 2 and then find that loading my game without cheats to see it all still perfectly intact. I also didn't expect to be able to add custom character classes to Disgaea 2 and then load that save to find it all intact. I'm betting I could also modify item data in the Resident Evil Outbreak games along with Silent Hill Origins and they would save and stay intact too. All you can do is try. Without evidence, it's just a guessing game.
