[PRESENT] Outbreak File 2: 3 AI characters US & JP

[Vixtro]

May I ask how you convert between regions/do you have a guide you could PM me?

Please and thank you.

Sorry you might have to wait a while, my storage HDD has just gone and messed up so I can't access anything from it and that is where I keep all my code hacking stuff.

Pain in the arse because this is the third HDD I've had mess up on me in the space of just under a year.

Well good news, I just recently bought a brand new slim PS2. So I will be hacking codes for both Outbreaks and other games too.

For more codes you guys might want to check this thread.

Here are some ideas I had in mind..

1. A code that switches control between player 1, p2, p3, and p4 (if a 3rd AI is enabled). This will make having other characters in the game more useful instead of relying on the crappy AI. Switch between characters in the game to perform specific tasks etc.

2. Resident Evil 4 camera (coincides with #1, I'll explain why). We found a "spectator mode" code that follows your AI partner (player 2) and resembles the RE4 camera. If I can force the game to switch controls over to player 2 the RE4 camera code will be a reality. I'm doing it this way because so far we haven't found a way to force the spectator mode code on player 1, believe me I've looked everywhere in the dump for it and no luck.

3. Give yourself enemy attributes. This would work well together with friendly fire and the "become a zombie offline" code. Adding a whole new level of enjoyment to the game. Although pretty much pointless, the AI will treat you like an enemy and attack you.

4. It might be possible to create a custom subroutine that allows you to control player 2 via a 2nd controller connected to port 2. Though I'm not really sure. Highly unlikely but still worth a try..

5. Ad libs code? Obviously a must for US & PAL versions.

Ok I managed to sort my HDD allot sooner than expected, or at least get my data off of it, no idea if the HDD itself is gonna be sorted now after a format. Anyway enough about that, Gradon I will get to work on your requests a little later today.

Making any one of those codes possible VirusPunk would be an amazing feat so good luck with that!

Also I know it's probably not the place to ask but how are you hacking these codes? Are you taking a memory dump or actually hacking them on the fly?

I've never really got into ps2 hacking, I just used to hack on the Gamecube with GCNrd. I remember asking Jay007 once years ago how to hack on the ps2 and he just told me not to bother, maybe he just thought it was too advanced for me (and probably still is lol) but I got the feeling he really resented it.

[Gradon]

Guys, this is a time where im glad to say I love you all.
Thanks Vix, and I hope you can achieve such epicness VP.
Best of luck !
Oh and sorry to bring it up again, but do you think you can link me to a guide Vix converting between regions?
I've worked with MaxConvert before which I udnerstand is only converting between ARMAX and the sort.
Thanks again.

I'd really like a code to alter the AI that doesn't assist you, such as Bob or Raymond. I've tried incrementing 10E0 up to ten times from the 3rd AI's address in file 1 but didn't get results.

I guess the game would crash. Dragging Bob across the roof to the apt building, he still doesn't follow you. But I'd be curious if he was given the ability to shoot or something. Or if the civilians in Outbreak were given the ability to move themselves.

[Gradon]

It would be great if the RPD survivors AI was edited, it would be more realistic seeing them roam around the RPD...
...The only problem would be when near the raid, all the police men die...

Yeah sorry I kinda ignored you a bit on that request, but yeah I'll post it here for all to see because it's no secret.

First of grab this brilliant tool: http://www.codemasters-project.net/p.../request.php?3

And then follow this simple guide that I screened when I was told how to convert:



Try using this offset for converting to begin with as I've gotten some good results with it so far: FFFE0D80

Codes you requested Gradon here:

Outbreak File #2 (PAL)

Enable Beta Backgrounds
005A9048 00000000

AI Controls You
004E5C44 00000001

I couldn't get "Become A Zombie After Death Offline" to work but I'll try some different offsets later, the beta backgrounds code works but I'm not sure what the beta backgrounds in Outbreak looked like, the ones here just look like they have no textures with flashing lights in places.

[Gradon]

Thank you very much for that guide, I'll look into it; lastly, how do you work out the offset?
EDIT:

OK, I tried it out, I can't test this out right now so can someone kindly test this?

EDIT 2:

FIXED IT! IT WORKS!

Spam Adlibs Code PAL:

Raw:
004E5E3C 00000001

ARMAX:
G42Z-8DE3-FHYVE
NV8X-J3BA-JN2DA

I'm working on a more in depth FAQ specifically for Outbreak. I'll even explain how to hack codes specifically for Outbreak in the near future. For now, this is what I wrote so far.

http://www.allthingseverything.com/o...atch_codes.txt

Don't pay attention to the Bioflames topic anymore, some of the information there is false (like the speed code digits). Instead, look at the FAQ for the correct codes. I also added lost and forgotten codes that were never posted. For instance, the color mod and size mod codes.

Enjoy.

This FAQ will be updated frequently as more codes are found and tested.

@ Vixtro:

You can try codemasters-project.net for guides on how to hack PS2 games, that's how I learned. Though many people complain that those guides are poorly written. When I find the time, I'll write a few tutorials to add to the newly made FAQ that should help you get started.

@ Space:

Try looking for code areas that have the same commands as the AI codes using the File #2 dump. If the commands are unique in some way you might find more codes elsewhere with similar commands (if not the same exact commands).

[Gradon]

Wow, thanks, interesting read.
Love your work dude;
Ages ago when the servers were up, I used the Miguel code and joined someones game...
Can you guess what happened?
Player 1 was Miguel, I was Cindy, everyone else was who they picked, they acted normally, and everytime I called to them, it was Miguel, and not Kevin.
I dont know if the other players could see Miguel, hear me say Miguel, or if it only affected my game, but, *shrug*

[The_15th]

No, they could not, and it probably got everyone's inventories a little messed up.

[Gradon]

It was one of those tests that I wanted to see if it'd work.

[VirusPunk]

While skimming through Bioflames, I found the camera codes that Jarnold found ages ago for file 2. (I think they're for file 2, or perhaps 1? I can't remember.)

Change Camera Position
004DB3AD 000000XX

Player 2 = 01
Player 3 = 02
Player 4 = 03

Unfortunately he reported that you can't just switch cameras on the fly to other players or it freezes. I have yet to try it though.

If it does work, you can assign a joker command along with the AI codes to switch between players to perform specific tasks.

If it freezes, try performing the joker command while walking through a door. I remember the area location mod froze on the fly too unless you went through a door, then it worked.

Does altering the file number whenever there's a folder path changes anything?


For those who might not know! All you have to do to cheat with the previous version of pcsx2 is to make a text file: http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to/vi...mulator-78744/
Then set the CPU settings to render frames as fast as possible and you'll be next to the NEW GAME button really fast.

[Gradon]

Change Camera Position (PAL):

004FA62D 000000XX

Same values as above.


Ahahaha, I used this and went into a different room and it wsa in a Loading Room loop trying to find out where Yoko was.

Yeah I tried that earlier, did you add jokers cause I did and couldn't get it to work.

Also, VirusPunk, seeing as your code list doesn't have the PAL master code for Outbreak File #2, here it is along with some more PAL codes.

Master Code

Updated the FAQ and added the new codes, thanks guys.

[Gradon]

Yeah I tried that earlier, did you add jokers cause I did and couldn't get it to work.

Did you convert the jokers on their own or WITH the code?
Do it vice versa if not.

It doesn't make any difference if the codes are converted together or separately.

[VirusPunk]

I converted the No Damage code from the Code Breaker website from CB v7 to raw. If anyone here wants to convert it to PAL be my guest.

Check the FAQ for the code.

No Damage literally makes enemy attacks go straight through you unharmed. Pretty useful when trying to make compilation videos or if you just wannna skim through a scenario unharmed.

EDIT:

Updated the guide with a basic tutorial on hacking float values.

http://allthingseverything.com/outbr...atch_codes.txt

Float values mod the game, basically.
