SNES "manipulation"

[Draco2003]

Does ANYONE here know how to manipulate the coding of a game? Like through Pro Action Replay or somthing...I was just wondering, so maybe you could teach me quickly. I don't think this really constitutes hacking, so its all good in my book. :D

Anyways, thanks for the help.

Using a PAR to manipulate the memory would probably be considered hacking, but I don't know how to do it on the console without having pre-made codes unless you know every memory address in the game which would be impossible.

I can do it on an emulator easy.

[Draco2003]

That's what I wanna learn. PLEASE TEACH MEEE!!!!!

[!King_Amazon!]

What emulator are you using?

[Draco2003]

Which would be the easiest? I currently have ZSNESW. I think it is pretty comprehensive, finding codes is easy as hell. I just need to know how to kinda "create" the codes. Thanks man.

What are you trying to change in the game?

Hey, whats a good site to d/l emulators/games.
Nvm I stopped being so lazy and found emulator zone.
Actually I need some instructions on how to set them up, and make the games work and stuff. Lets use Visual Boy as an example shall we. I D/L-ed the emulator, and 1 game, now what? Where do I put the files and such?

nvm again

Let's start with Chrono Trigger. I want to start as Magus, instead of Chrono. I know there is a code so that you look like Magus in the sub-menu and have his items, but I also want it to have his sprite.

Also could you give me a quick tutorial on how to do a few other random things, your choice.

Kaneda, when you D/L an emulator, you MIGHT need to right click, then click properties. Then click off Read-Only. Then when you are ready to load your ROM, just click File, Load ROM/Game, then look for the folder where your ROM is located. To make it easier, I put mine on my desktop. Then you just click the Up button and you should see it. Then load, and enjoy.

By the way, Visual Boy is a great GBA Emulator.

TY! I've gotten that but it says I need to do something w/ the bios. I CAN'T GET PASSED ANY OF THE TITLE SCREENS!!!!!!!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:

I can only change things having to do with numbers, like strength, gold, stuff like that.

I wouldn't know how to do something like you are wanting to do.

[Draco2003]

Oh, okay. Anyways, thanks. You and Kaneda are the only people to EVER reply to me in any other forum outside of the RPG Maker one. What do you use to "hack" save states. I think there is a way to change it that way, although I am not sure. If I am going too far with anything, just let me know and I will not reply anymore. Don't want to get banned or anything.

[!King_Amazon!]

You wouldn't get banned for stuff like this.

My guess is you would use a hex editor to edit a saved state, but how you would do that is beyond me.

Best I can do is what I stated above.

[Draco2003]

Thanks, I learned from some site on the web. What a coincidence, it was Chrono Trigger. I learned alot, it was very informative. It is actually quite easy to learn, you should try it. Hexadecimal isn't as hard as I believed it to be. Anyways, thanks again for trying.

When I look at hex code it reminds me of packets which I'm scared of. I might check it out one day after I break the phobia.
