Trying to cheat with the debugger

Ian · 25 June 2015, 14:07

First off, I tried various cartridges, but don't really understand memory address and such not being a programmer so cannot find the value I'm looking for.

The built in debugger though is much more user friendly and I have managed to find the memory address I need.

However, I cannot get it to freeze or insert a new value.

I have tried w 0003947C 4d010

and also w 0003947C f 4d010

Neither have the desired effect.

I am trying to give myself more money in Oil Imperium as I suck. Does the game protect against my limited train-fu?

If prices are low save and load game. You should sell all your oil at the beginning to get a lot of money.

I'll give that a go,

Thanks.

I would still like to know how to "train" it though.

Edit: Nevermind I found a way. Finding the memory address in the middle output area and changing the value did the trick.
