This new forums sucks! All the old topics are gone and i wasn't even informed that we moved! DDM WTF? I was talking to myself at the old forums! Also I don't want to be a newbie I have been at the forums since the start!

haha. That's what you get for not looking around. :P

was somebody supposed to send you a message saying to come here? please, open your fucking eyes, and read the fucking big letters on the old forum syaing that they moved here.

and you weren't with the forums from thestart, only a few people still around here were with them from the start, back when they were still on the cheatsync servers.

and with topics like this you will always be considered a noob, even on the old forums.

like me, Vettefan, Nath, DDM, V, M_Z... etc.

When i found out who told you we moved..im'a carve their eyes out with a spoon. :angry:

lol,I remeber when V joined I was like WTF???

You're the only one who's not gotten used to the new forum.

Like I said in the C-Box: Quit whining and you'll get used to it.

EXACTLY !!!

i mean only a few people have been through it ALL and whe i mean ALL i mean like from like almost day one!


i have been around since... like version 7 or 8 of the cheat device....witch is like along time ago

3RD GEN CHEATSYNC LOL

I joined when there were 20 members of CSF when they were hosted on the Cheatsync.net servers, on or about the time CS v1 was even released and before CheatDevice v3 was released.

I've been through it all

from trying CD 0.1 on release date.
tried first CS beta.
were the 3rd registered member on the first forums -_-

Man i wish i had been there i mean i was FLIPING OUT when me and my friend pat found cheat device then i seen cheatsync........those where the days.








BUT I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL VCS hopefully we can make a cheat device of some sort for it.

I'm going to make one.

really cool

could you give some info on it ??? if any info at all ???

I've been here sence the day after PMG came out. LOL DDM was using paint to make his sig then :lol:

Going to be a prx, so 1.50 or 2.71SE will be required.

I'm working on it with LCS now, making a hex editor and comparision tool so I can quickly find offsets and hopefully release a version the day I get the game.

Other than that I don't know much. Going to add a flying cheat I think. also will have a similar to CD kind of custom cheats. I think I'll add if statements too though.

That's a good idea!

when you get a hex editor working, be sure to send an early version over to me so I can help with finding some of the values.
ask edison for some of the CD code, I'm sure that 90% of the cheatmaker/hex editor code can be re-used. the only difference would be offsets.

I got his text printing code. I prefer doing what I can myself though. Don't like just using other peoples code if I can make it myself.

the hex editor is pretty much done. I might have to do a quick conversion for it to work on vcs though. I'll sned you the offset finding things as soon as I get vcs. (I'm preordering from US, so I'll hopefully have it by the 1st)

if VCS does work with devhook, then I'm going to use cwcheat, or that other program at first.
I'm sure I can get a pmg car working on the first day, and can probably find a lot of the non-pcar/pplayer codes pretty easily. just with a hex dump.

and once pplayer, and pcar pointers I can probably get most of the cheats from LCS in there pretty easily.

cwcheat should be able to do everything cheat maker did, except with having to find the pointers ourselves.

I'll find pplayer/pcar first day.

and make infinite health/indestrucable cars.
a superman cheat (flying)
and wanted level.

at least those 3 should be in the first version I think. Maybe spawn any vehicle and ever fall of bike too. Just need to figure out edison did that.

Then later cheat maker, and maybe a construction mode.

Send me a version too I'd like to help...

wow this is great good luck hope it works

will do. :)

for never fall off of bike edison changed I think it was 3 values. he posted it in the ps2 developement topic, and what each value did. one was for hitting something, one was for falling in the whater, and one was for rolling back or something like that.

and how would you find pplayer and pcar? I'm not sure how it's done, but if you know how to do it that's great :D

I know exactly how.

for pplayer I will search for the players health. then when I find that I'll find the start of pplayer and then the only thing left is finding a pointer that points to that address.

for pcar I'll only search for an int. which is 0 when I'm not in a vehicle and starts with either 08 or 09 when I'm in a vehicle.

also if you find it before me don't post it becouse i'm going to find it myself no matter what. ;)

I figured that's how it could be done, but I don't know how to read pointers. I don't know what an address would look like in hex. I have some sort of idea, from changing around the shadows in LCS, but actually finding an exact pointer has me lost.
I won't find the pointer, but I'll find some of the offsets, based on the health location. I'll find the health, and then find where Vic's information, and base my offsets off of that. I can probably get most of the cheats from LCS done rather quickly. as long as the game hasn't changed much.

but like I said, I'm goign to start off with pmg, and try to find all of the configuration files. those will have the best visual effects, and it'll be best to get all of the pmg values out of the way, so if ade decides to program a new pmg, my work will be done early.

Well, I've gotten comparision tool partially working. Only problem is after running it for 10 minutes it only have searched through 0x00100000 bytes :mellow:

I wasnt even here since day one..
I came at about 0.6 and then on..
Ahh the good times!

I reall wanted to help this year with the CD..but i gotta start playing about a bit with it..

I started using CD and CheatSync just before the current version of CD came out and when CheatSync had to be downloaded to be used. I joined the forums about a month later.

wow, 10 minutes for only that.
didn't CD search through 0x100 bytes at time? the counter would count by 0x100.
maybe it would compare that whole group at a time.

I've sped it up ALOT by making it load in 0x100 bytes of the file at once and then checking from memory which is a lot quicker, and also making the address counter only get updated every 0x10000 bytes checked.

only problem now is that it always crashes after checking 0xE8A5BD bytes :mellow:

maybe that's the end of the memory. maybe there's nothign left to check so it crashes.

nope, it's not. it's only at 0x928A5BD in memory. so theres 0xD75A42 bytes left.

does it save stuff and not erase it? because it could be running out of memory.

I've been thinking about that. But it loads the 0x100 bytes into the same variable each time so it shouldn't run out of memory :/

I bet theres some stupid simple mistake that I'm missing... :angry:

but does it stay there even though it's not in a variable? try erasing each variables contents before each new segment of data. that'll probably slow it down a lot though.

hah, found the error :D

my stupid attampt at trying to optimize my loops by making them count downwards instaed of upwards caused a buffer overflow.

just a question but how old is every one here ?? AKA Waterbottle and vettefan88


im 16 almost 17 in a couple of months and im just learning c and c++ and i already new some hex i know alot on html and a very little on java
