[sfa3] Select Color Unlock NVRAM
Select Color Unlock can be improved to update NVRAM directly, to not have to repeat the code everytime.
The method is illustrated in the comment;

Find this cheat isn't difficult at all, I looked at the memory with a watch, then I calculated the offset from NVRAM zero and then this is the final NVRAM address.
WHY? WELL this game has an apart NVRAM space, so NVRAM address 0 = 0 in the final cheat code too.
Have you understood ?
Remember that I found ROM cheats for mahjongg, puzzle and card games too (fairly unique).
Pugsy does all sort of cheats (but I guess he prefers platforms)

Street Fighter Alpha 3: Select Colour Unlock doesn't seem to be working in newest 130u2. I got it working by changing it to this:
...but now it doesn't save the change to NVRAM.

Re: [sfa3] Select Color Unlock NVRAM
I spent a while making sure that the converter handled the very few eeprom cheats remaining, and thankfully sfa3 still works just fine in 0.130u4.steppres wrote:Street Fighter Alpha 3: Select Colour Unlock doesn't seem to be working in newest 130u2. I got it working by changing it to this:
Select "Red (Unlocks Classical Mode)" after you've inserted a credit, and press ENTER to enable the option.
Press F3 to reset the game
Now when you insert a credit the background has a reddish tinge
Exit the game
Restart and the same background is still red

Re: [sfa3] Select Color Unlock NVRAM
Thanks for the quick reply, followed your instructions on a fresh install of the newest MAME Windows binary but it's still not happening for me. Does anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Re: [sfa3] Select Color Unlock NVRAM
Mmmmm, that's pretty damn annoying. It was working fine a few hours ago but now it's doing nothing....odd!
Sorry for my earlier post, you are correct. I will investigate further to see if I can get the eeprom writes to work once more

Re: [sfa3] Select Color Unlock NVRAM
Right, looked into it...seems that the memory locations of the eeprom hold 16 bit values now. Don't know why....
But here's the fixed code:-
