;Quick formula to obtain PL2 addresses
;ADDR.PL2=1B0+ADDR.PL1 (and vice-versa)

With the Stongest shot POW, I've yust counted a stage duration: 6 seconds ... )
In my opinion, sh.powers higher than Good are not accessible normally, btw the cheat works so fine...

-extra-
Yesss!!!!!!!!
With this simple cheat, you can act yust like the boss, and the enemy can only command a simple ship... Hah I'm too strong!!!!
To call the mothership, yust press <bomb> button, enjoy!!! (It has an incredible power...)
To make the game more interesting,try in this mode to give more shot power to the CPU (the other player).
Otherwise, CPU will die too early

note that ship select ACTUALLY IS WRONG/INCOMPLETE! I DON'T KNOW ASIAN LANGUAGES, SO I CANNOT FIX IT. SOMEONE MUST HELP ME IN THIS CASE, AND PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ALWAYS DIRTY WORK TO SITE ADMINS...

But Pugsy, if you want you can add these cheats, they ALL work fine.
So what you waitin 4?

I've not yet looked at the cheats as your previous post said "note that ship select ACTUALLY IS WRONG/INCOMPLETE". From first glance (not actually tried them) it would appear the ship select cheat needs to be a list cheat and the select stage cheat maybe better as as a select starting stage cheat (maybe using a prefill or a ROM cheat even). The PL2 Boss cheat would appear to be incomplete as it only uses 2 addresses whilst PL1 uses three..


I've added them for the time being but I'll take a look/test them tonight.

Just so you know, that Strongest settings in the Weapons Power cheat creates a bug under a certain condition.

If you attempt to use "Strongest" power using the "Stonegolem" plane, you cause MAME to crash. Apparently, that plane has one less power level than the others ("Stronger" will work, "Strongest" won't), and it creates a bug that results in the following termination message:

Code: Select all

-----------------------------------------------------
Exception at EIP=007934EB: ACCESS VIOLATION
While attempting to read memory at 0F7F1000
-----------------------------------------------------
EAX=00FFFFFF EBX=17180FDF ECX=0F670020 EDX=00180FE0
ESI=00000000 EDI=00016C92 EBP=0022F8F8 ESP=0022F8D0

Perhaps a warning is in order to go no higher than "Stronger" if one intends to play with the Stonegolem plane.

PS. The problem does not occur if you become the lead plane rather than the chaser, since all planes share the same rear-firing guns.

1st of ALL.
Kriptokapi's code is always INCOMPLETE. Therefore DON'T BELIEVE !

I can't understand why Kriptokapi's codes are added into the database without any modification.
And I have reflected deeply on allowing to add with incommensurate check.

I think that we will need to comment out all Kriptokapi's codes in the lateste database until finish testing.

you attempt to use "Strongest" power using the "Stonegolem" plane, you cause MAME to crash. Apparently, that plane has one less power level than the others ("Stronger" will work, "Strongest" won't)

It may be impossible to fix because it seems that the program code doesn't allow "Stonegolem" plane to have "Strongest" power.
So the best we can do will be that add "warning" message for this code, just like Sonic Wings (shot power) or Golden Axe (magic).

Anyway, we will need to clearn up all codes...
