  • Sega CD PAR code creation and usage is now possible.

    Turns out Gens Hacking Version can create Sega CD PAR codes. But it can't use them. When using them no effect takes place. But, Genesis Plus GX on the Wii has Sega CD PAR code support. Also, Gens/GS for PC can use PAR codes. Get a download of Gens/GS here: http://segaretro.org/Gens/GS. It is also available for Windows. Simply make the PAR codes on Gens Hacking Version, then use them on Genesis Plus GX, or Gens/GS.

    Here's some codes I made for Terminator Sega CD. Feel free to add these to the site.

    FFFE1D:28 Infinite Energy (turn off at score tally)
    FFFE41:09 Infinite Lives
    FFFE40:3F Infinite Grenades
    FFFE42:03 Max Gun Strength
    FFF28E:FFFF Enable Debug/Level Select/Invincibility Cheats
    FFF290:FFFF Enable Debug/Level Select/Invincibility Cheats
    FFF2B5:00 Enemy 1 dies fast
    FFF2E9:00 Enemy 2 dies fast
    FFF31D:00 Enemy 3 dies fast
    FFF351:00 Enemy 4 dies fast
    FFF385:00 Enemy 5 dies fast
    FFF455:00 Enemy 6 dies fast

    I started having trouble finding the other enemy dies fast codes so there's some enemies who won't die fast. But with the ones provided it should make getting through the game a little easier at least.

    Perhaps you guys might want to add info about this on the main site. It think it's big news.

    About cheats on Genesis Plus GX on Wii or GC, I've already mentioned that, but it's good to know that you can now make codes as well with different versions on Gens.

      Would be nice if one of the developers of that particular branch of Gens made a windows port.

        Do you mean Gens/GS? There is a windows port. See http://segaretro.org/Gens/GS. Might want to include it as a download on the site for people that want to use Sega CD PAR codes. 47iscool. What do you mean by "About cheats on Genesis Plus GX on Wii or GC, I've already mentioned that"? Do you mean you mentioned Genesis Plus GX can use Sega CD cheat codes? If so then how did you find out, beside there being a cd directory for cheats? Cause I dunno how anyone had created Sega CD PAR codes before to even test that out.

        Edit: What is the point of games showing up if there are 0 codes? http://gamehacking.org/?game=85398

        Since this is a cheat code site primarily there shouldn't be listings viewable for games that have no codes.

          Cool on that release but how the hell do I load up a SegaCD game? It won' detect any of my drives virtual or real. Is there a plugin of some kind needed to work?

                Well, I tried to find codes for Lunar Eternal Blue and couldn't find any. I think Sega CD may have more RAM than Genesis did. So Gens Hacking Version probably can't search the memory beyond what the Genesis had. So some games may be unhackable with Gens Hacking Version. I think Genesis ports should probably all be hackable. I did hack a few codes for Sonic CD. Add these to the site too:

                Sonic CD:
                Infinite Rings FF1513:63
                Infinite Lives FF1508:09

                    amazing find! been using gens\gs for awhile
                    usually use gens mark 2 or upthorns gens rerecording to make codes
                    the fact that sega cd codes can be used without hex editing the file is a major step
                    do the images have to be in iso format or bin\cue format does it matter?

                      Genesis Plus GX and MD.emu (Android port of GX) can use cheat codes with Sega CD.

                      As you probably know, any codes created in Gens *may* not work in other emulators (Kega, Genesis Plus GX, Regen, etc.) due to how Gens incorrectly handles PAR codes: http://forums.sonicretro.org/index.php?showtopic=22454

                        Because of Little-Endian and Big-Endian issues

                        If PAR(RAM) Code

                        on Kfusion is FFE568:01, on GENs is FFE569:01 (even address (0,2,4,6,8,A,C,E) plus 1 (1,3,5,7,9,B,D,F))

                        on Kfusion is FF0401:09, on GENs is FF0400:09 (odd address (1,3,5,7,9,B,D,F) minus 1 (0,2,4,6,8,A,C,E))

                          Yup, that same ol' song and dance. Just FYI to anyone who creates codes in the Gens Hacking build and want to use those codes in other emulators, you may need to convert them if they don't work.

                          EDIT: Can anybody whom is able to edit the main site please take the codes from the Sonic CD entry here, add these additional codes then put these codes in Sonic CD entry here? Thanks!

                          FF151F:0001 Invincibility
                          FF1589:0001 Enable Debug Mode
                          FF0F20:7F00 Have All 7 Time Stones/Good Futures
                          FF151E:0001 Always Have Shield

                            Screw that shit! Add them yourself since I just made you a member of the Hacker Group! No offense was meant in this response I thought it would be funny.
