cwcheat 0.1.7 REV D released

[wraggster]

News/release from Weltall: (http://cwcheat.consoleworld.org/)


here it is a new version of cwcheat: 0.1.7 REV.D, which was primarly delayed because the changes to be made to the site were more important.
The most important things about this version is a rewrite of the umd reading functions (some of the first being executed when the prx is being loaded).
This resolved a problem which could affect people with slow umd drives or damaged umd which could lead to more time in bootup and so making cwcheat crash when trying to access them.
So this should make cwcheat more compatible with the 3.40OE firmware.
except this trough other optimizations and the switch to -Os it was possible to reduce the size of the prx making it more compatible with other plugins.
Finally some important things made on the site are the addition of a wiki based documentation (still being written), a bug tracker (mantis), a new server and a huge cleanup of the db which made it being used again in the release package of cwcheat.

CHANGELOG:

0.1.7 REV. D RELEASE
=====================
- 0000009: [ALL] fixed automaking of a code for found trough float search which used 3 in place to 2
- [ALL] various optimizations to reduce file size in order to increase compatability with other prx
- [ALL] switched from -O2 to -Os which reduced size of ~15kb and didn't seem to do a noticeable change in speed
- [GAME] rewritten the initialization code which reads the id from the disk. Now it waits for the disk to be mounted without using time hacks. This increased compatability with slow umd drives/damaged umds in 3.40 OE systems
- [DB DOWNLOADER] updated to reflect the new server
- [DB] The db was cleaned removing some bogus codes which had zeroes on them or blank spaces: so now the db included in cwcheat is being updated again with the one on the site in each release
- [SITE] the site was moved on a faster host, the download section was fixed and now it's working again
- [SITE] Added a wiki documentation which will be expanded in the future and user can add things to it (translations are also welcome)
- [SITE] Added a bug tracked based on mantis. If you find a bug or something wrong with cwcheat or the site please file a bug report there. But report things correctly saying all the steps to reproduce it else they will be discarded

I hope it fixed the bug with the menu when there's only a couple of cheats.

I hope this works better that the one i've got now.

[VexnadFett]

Does this already have the ability to load the save files from ePSXe onto 3.40? cause that's what i really need right now, trying to MGS1 and all

[Saracchini]

Oh man... i just instaled the REV C version in my PSP.
Well, i should test this version right now. If it is more compatible with 3.40-OE i'll be very happy.

[Buddy4point0]

yay this is great! i love this app, i wish they would change it to holding down the music note though, cause the select key does other stuff like restore stamina in wwe

[parkermauney]

And Open the atlas in spyro. There should be a config file somewhere.

[DarthPaul]

Oh yeah a new release!

[deathbringer014]

just wantd to ask.. i havent used dis before but can i open this plug-in during gameplay..?? can't i use this when playing iso's..?? nid immediate rply.. tnx..

[parkermauney]

Yes. Yes. Just hold select down to bring it up.


I also like that they included the cheat.db, makes it more noob proof.

(They didn't include it before did they?)

[deathbringer014]

[deathbringer014]

can i use this wid my iso's..?? how..??

[deathbringer014]

when i press select button while playing my iso the plug-in reads the umd not my iso.. how do i choose the game..??

Buddy4point0: it can change the key for displaying the cwcheat menu, so if the select button is used by a game just change the key setting. Just enter the menu and select "Settings" then "Change buttons". Change the button of "Menu Button" to any other button or combinations of button you prefer. You can save the settings as defaut in the previous menu. Btw i'm still using the REV B, but i think it still the same for changing the button config.

Looking forward to try this new one, hope it will fix crashes when i load a demo game eboot.;)
