Emulator Cheats

A program to integrate the cheats would be rather pointless I'm afraid. You'd have too many duplicated cheats. You can't for instance just ignore cheats that use the same address as another cheat - you can have several cheats that use the same address but have different effects...the cheat type and...

As I wrote in another thread, I would do a little utility that updates cheat.dat. For this goal I need all cheat.dat that integrate new cheats or other cheats. These are the cheat files I have found: Mike Haggar: http://haggar.emuunlim.com/ kelvSYC: http://www.mamecheat.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=...

Thank you very much

Take a look at ConvertOldCode in cheat.c; it's the internal function that's used to convert old-style cheats to the new format. Pass it the old cheat type in 'code', the target cpu in 'cpu', and it will write out the new cheat type field and extended data field in the ints pointed to by the 'data' ...

Well, I searched in cheat.c and I fouded this: Conversion Table: MSB LSB 33222222 22221111 11111100 0000 0000 10987654 32109876 54321098 7654 3210 000xxxxx 00000000 00000000 0000 0000 000 000xxxxx 00000000 00000000 0000 0001 001 000xxxxx 00000000 00000000 0010 0000 002 000xxxxx 00000000 00000000 010...

Excuse me the double post, but I want to do a little program that updates cheat.dat automatically... I must know how to convert old cheat format. Can you give me a link to an help, an old discussion, everythink?

How is the conversion between new and old format?

Hi all I have a little stupid question. Why in some cheat file of Ultimate patchers the lines start with a colon? For example:
Thank you in advance.
