I'd Like To See An Update To How The Cheat Codes Are Stored
« on: March 14, 2006, 02:08:00 PM »

I would like to see the list of cheats codes updated to function a little more a gameshark/action replay. I really don't like how it shows all the codes for a single item and it mixes with other codes.

I would rather have it just display 'Unlimited Lives'... have an indicater as to if the code is on or off... and all cheat codes are hidden under that listing... I could then go in and edit and of the long list of codes needed under 'Unlimited Lives'... it looks cleaner and easier to use...

Instead we see a long list of codes....
3000A73D 00FE Adr:0xA6FD val:254 ON
3000A73D 00FE Adr:0xA6FD val:254 ON
3000A73D 00FE Adr:0xA6FD val:254 ON
3000A73D 00FE Adr:0xA6FD val:254 ON
3000A73D 00FE Adr:0xA6FD val:254 ON

Then you have to disable like 5 codes.. and if you didn't give each line a discription you end up for getting what code does what.... You should only see the list like that if you go in to edit the codes for a single entry listing like 'Unlimited Lives' those who have used Gamesharks and Action Replays should know what I'm talking about........

Also... I would like the see the TXT veiwer updated a little... I use this option so I can read a Walkthrough if I get stuck at a certain point.... if the current veiwer.... the TXT file displays way to big, you can only scroll up or down and you can't scroll left or right so you miss what it's saying.. and maybe and option to make the font smaller and bigger.... which would act like a zoom effect so you can read more onscreen at once.

yeah I'd like to see the txt viewer updated if possible. I love this feature, but it does look a bit ugly with the fonts etc. Fixed Width mode just seems to look really bad and not useable.

Also, maybe make the same txt view button as the same return button? Eg, I have white button mapped to view the current txt file... but I often press white button again to return to the game... which in fact returns me to the top of the txt file (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Gotta press B, gotta press B.... not sure if the txt viewer buttons can already be remapped, should really check it out first (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I've been thinking about this as well.
Like

Have All Items:
50009601 0001
3006F65A 0001
50009601 0000
3006F5C4 0063

Instead of choosing each individual code one by one, we can have it where we'd be allowed to enter/choose codes from it's submenu, and enable it by choosing just "Have All Items" (like codebreaker).
