Emulator Cheats

Hi Guys,

is there a way to permanently enable cheats in a particular game in mame within the cheat xml.

For example:

kof95.xml

<cheat desc="Enable hidden characters"> <comment>Adds the extra two hidden characters to the selection screen</comment>
<script state="run">
<action>maincpu.pb@10E79A=01</action>
</script>
</cheat>

modify the above to always have the boss hack enabled as above?

thanks in advance

I think what you want is the ability to auto-start a cheat when MAME starts?

If so, to my knowledge, that functionality is not in the cheat engine (yet).

No indeed, auto-enabling of cheats hasn't existed in MAME for years and the facility is unlikely to be reappear any time soon.

thanks very much for confirming. Just wanted to know the answer officially

I was wondering the same thing so thanks Pugsy for confirming that. I hope this gets another look soon
