1.0 Original


1.1 Added offsets for hacking with a conventional hex editor











II.  How To


note: I used the cheats menu from the FCEUltra emulator.


These numbers were derived from real time game hacking.
A basic knowledge of the binary number system is needed for the attributes
with multiple addresses.  The greatest value that can be placed in a single
address is "255", hence the need for multiple addresses for larger numbers.
For Example:

Lets say we want Ragnar to have 70,000 experience points.  70,000 is greater
than 255 so we will need to use multiple addresses.  First, we need to convert
the number 70,000 into binary format.  The easiest way to do this is by using
a calculator.  Anyway you do it, it comes out to this:

"10001000101110000"

From here, starting from the right, divide the number up into groups of
eight(8) digits.  Remember to start from the right hand side.  This gives us
these 3 groups:

       "1"        "00010001"        "01110000"

Since I said we need 8 digits per group, we use zero(0) as a filler for the
group without 8 digits, giving us this

       "00000001"        "00010001"        "01110000"

Now, we need to convert these numbers back into decimal format.

       "1"        "17"        "112"

Now its time to put these numbers into the hacking utility.
Again, we are starting on the right.  To give Ragnar 70,000 exp points, enter
your numbers into the addresses like this:
60C5 = 112
60C6 = 17
60C7 = 1







III. Values



NOTE:  LEFT SIDE VALUES ARE ADDRESSES FROM THE FCE ULTRA CHEATS MENU AND ARE
ENTERED AS SHOWN ABOVE.  RIGHT SIDE VALUES ARE OFFSETS FROM A CONVENTIONAL HEX
EDITOR AND CHANGES ARE ENTERED IN THE SAME FASHION AS ABOVE, EXCEPT AS
HEXADECIMAL VALUES.
