Re: [sf2ce] Score Board - Plugin

Look at the dummy plugin, https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/ma ... y/init.lua , to see how to create a menu then the patch above to see if the key press event is a unicode character.

Re: cheat lua plugins

Without the hack/modification it doesn't write anything at all be it json, xml or simple (written == false and the Unable to write file message pops up). It doesn't create the subdir. If you make a a800_flop directory under cheat they should be created there. I'll have to fix that sometime. I appre...

Re: cheat lua plugins

The json cheat format should always be written because it supports everything. Is this for the simple format as the xml format can't work with ram device cheats?

Re: cheat lua plugins

I've been using the modified lua for about a month and it all works really well (it stopped the silly errors I kept making). I just noticed the latest change to init.lua and figured it might be worthwhile on getting some or all of the changes added to the official - so that I don't have to manually...

That is in the ":bios" rom region at the same address. Just fill 4dc98-4dca0 with 0xea which is the 6502 NOP instruction.

Re: cheat lua plugins

It not a feature or a bug it's really just an artifact of the way it works. The values to save are generated when the search is done and if you want to save in a different format you have to rerun the search (you can use the saved data so that doesn't need to be recreated).

Re: cheat lua plugins

BTW, I've just noticed in the proper init.lua when you save a 32 bit value, it's ok in the JSON file but in cheat.simple it comes through as nil rather than d, and in the xml it comes through as ppnil rather than ppd (or pd, as pp==p).

BTW: Is there anyway of adding an extra command at the bottom of the cheat finder menu to allow the game to get paused whenever the cheat finder menu is on screen and unpauses when the TAB key is pressed. When using the debugger search pause/unpause is automatic and it was incredibly handy. I added...

[xrally] Infinite time

Code: Select all

<mamecheat version=1>
<cheat desc="Infinite Time">
<script state="run">
<action>maincpu.ppd@a2248=10000</action>
</script>
</cheat>
</mamecheat>
This only works in the lua cheat engine for reasons unclear.

I could add support for this but I don't really know how the ui would work to set it to rotate the options with presses or to just set the one selected.

Re: cheat lua plugins

You might try instead

<script state="run">
<action>maincpu.pb@0101E030=4</action>

</cheat>

Re: do cheats that modify the program space memory's rom work with street fighter iii3?

The simm only sets you can use simmx.x.mb where x.x are the slot numbers (in theory, this might not work because of the period in the name) to set a byte in the rom. For the sets with a cdrom, there's no way to edit the simm data with the built in cheat engine. You'd have to use the Lua cheat engine...

Re: do cheats that modify the program space memory's rom work with street fighter iii3?

It's worth noting that you should use the standard cheat engine rather than the plugin one, as the o region isn't being poked with that as the Hit Anywhere cheat doesn't work. Fixed. Edit: The opcode space likely won't work for changing the midi data because it's data and opcode space is only valid...
