Cheat codes?

Open pkmnrandom opened this issue 1 year ago • 8 comments

I was wondering how to enter cheat codes/if there are any? (I'm actively desperate for Celebi.)

You mean, in the web frontend right?

Because in the SDL frontend there's support using the --cheats CLI param.

The current version in master: https://master.boytacean.pages.dev/ supports adding Game Genie and GameShark cheat codes, but you need to use the Web Browser console to do it.

using for instance

window.emulator.gameBoy.add_cheat_code_wa("00A-17B-C49")

Great! Am I able to port save files over to the current version? I noticed it failed to load the save file and I can't tell if its because I ported the save file between my Chromebook over to my computer or if it's just not saved.

Unfortunately, there were some breaking changes in the past that broke compatibility. Can you export the save files and send them here to see if I can recover them by building some "patch" tool?

Couldn't send the save file(s) so I made them a respiratory.

I've updated the file to the new save file format. I am also releasing a new stable version of Boytacean (0.11.0) to implement the new BOS file format.

You'll have to rename the file to pokemon.s1

pokemon.txt

@pkmnrandom did you manage to get it working?

@pkmnrandom did you test it?

Closing this one, as the feature is already supported.
