CheatDevice v0.8 for LCS

[edisoncarter]

j3r0m3z: Sweet!

 

 

edison, any way to eliminate the heights limits?

There's a chance they'll go away with lowered gravity. On VC that worked, on San Andreas it didn't. I have a feeling they did it the San Andreas way this time though. It feels more like a height ceiling than the heli just being too weak to get up. Even so, with negative gravity, it should be pushed up above the height limit. We'll have to see if they went to the full extent they did with SA with making the vehicle uncontrolable and catch fire if you manage to get above.

 

There was never a way to remove the height limit in SA.

wouldnt jet back umlimitaed height count?~Rela82me~

Hey, first time posting here, LONG TIME gta fan.

Anyway...

 

Work harder on the 2.5 Edison! Well, take as long as you need these things probably take a exceptionally long time to program Hey, first time posting here, LONG TIME gta fan.

Anyway...

 

EDIT- By the way Edison, there was a way to get PAST the height limit but never remove it

[ADePSP]

So i'm not alone in wanting to throw my 2.5 PSP into the road then...? Why oh why oh why oh why did I upgrade... Bum towels!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Very annoyed myself...

[edisoncarter]

The height limit didn't apply to the jetpack. It couldn't go above a certain height because of its own limited power, but with just a little less gravity it could go to unlimited height. Airplanes and helicopters had a firm height limit at 1000 meters that you couldn't break through with low gravity or anything, and if you did you lost control and caught fire.

 

On Vice City, helis and planes could go above their hight limit with reduced gravity.

But there was that "bubble car cheat" coupled with the flying cars cheat, in which you got into a "bubble car", you could fly it above the height limit

Edison, I can help with 2.50 testing. E-mail me at [email protected]

[rela82me]

is there away for when I get my psp, to only upgrade to 2.0 and not any higher?

Nice job on the Cheatdevice Edisoncarter but the only problem is with the Cheatdevice is when I choose a vehicle to spawn under the Rhino Cheat or Trashmaster Cheat and then when I put in the cheat it says CHEAT ACTIVATED but does not spawn the vehicle in front of me.

 

And By the way my PSP is a FIRMWARE 2.1.

 

Also Edisoncarter I saw a weather cheat where you can scroll through Rainy, Foggy, Clear, or Sunny weather cheat and just as a suggestion you should add the Snow Weather effect to list so that when people scroll through the weather effects they can choose from Rainy, Foggy, Sunny, Clear, and Snowing weather effects.

[DACBONE]

Edisoncarter do you think you can update the cheatdevice so i can scan through all of the ped outfits instead of me having to enter the cheat until i get what i want.

 

That would be great! but i do appreciate what you have done so far.

[AsianNation]

Wow, way to go Edison! It works perfectly for me, but when I spawn the 199 Heli it spawns, but it is Invisible, also it's small (I can see by the shadow) I think it's an RC Heli, 198 Heli Crashes the game. Also, i'm running Firmware v2.01.

 

Edit: Also, when you activate the CheatDevice and then try to load another game, it does crash.

Do you mean firmware 2.01? I'm not sure there was a 2.1, or was there?

 

In LCS, the vehicle doesn't spawn in front of you anymore. It spawns in the middle of the nearest road, so you have to be near a road for anything to happen. Way lamer than the old way. You can't spawn stuff in the middle of nowhere, which is when you need to spawn the most when you're stranded. (like at LCS's desolate airport)

 

There was not a snow weather setting. I believe the snow in that mission was a mission script.

 

@rela82me: fw 2.0 is included on the GTA disk. Use that.

[GTA3Freak-2001]

~Rela82me~

Only if you get a 1.52 firmwared PSP, if its 2.01 or over you cant go back to 2.0. If it is 1.52 just install 2.0 which is on the LCS game disc.

 

Anyway I've got it working but how exactly do you iniciate the spawn cheats?

So you're seeing it crash the first time you try to load something else after loading CheatDevice? I was always able to load once after it, but it seems like it crashes the second time.

[AsianNation]

He's gotta be refferring to 2.01 since people with 2.50 can't even start the device.

 

Edit: After I load the CheatingDevice I can't load another save, as it crashes while loading.

Edisoncarter, you are a legend! I think you deserve more karma but there is no more room, haha. Edited November 28, 2005 by Killer789

Well technically the snow weather effect acts as like a rainy weather effect it is just programed to start the snow weather effect during level 9 of the Car Salesman missions so probably with some rewriting you could get the snow weather effect to activate when you highlight the snow in weather cheat and it will just keep snowing until you highlight a different weather effect or just turn it off.

 

Give it a try the snow does work like a rainy weather effect it was just programmed to activate during the Car Salesman missions. It just might be possible to activate outside of the mission with your cheatdevice mod for GTA:LCS.

[AsianNation]

Well, he does have to dig in that Missions script to find it...

[edisoncarter]

OK, besides crashing with certain vehicle spawns, which is as expected, the only other time I've gotten crashes is while trying to load another game. Here's how I'm trying to describe it now, does this fit with what you guys are seeing?

 

"You're supposed to be able to load another game save while CheatDevice is running, but it sometimes crashes. At least you can load the CheatDevice save and play around in there. For me at least, I can load another game save once after loading CheatDevice, then if I need to load again, I press L1+R1+UP to unload it, then load it again."

 

Sound about right?

 

Some release notes about the cheats: The Wanted Level cheat only partially works for raising your level. You get a halfhearted police response with spike strips and helicopters, but the street cops don't get the message. It's OK for now, I think this is kinda cool.

 

If you lock the time, the weather starts cycling. If you lock the weather, even if you then unlock it, it won't do that.

[K^2]

Am I the ONLY person who wants to know HOW???

 

There are two ways to get this to work. Either by editing the script or by overwriting game code. Unless there is a built in support for loading portions of the script from the saved game, the saved game actually works as a memory editor, which would have to be either supported by the game or require some very serious buffer overflowing.

[swat_killer]

Man you rock... i wish i could get my girlfriend to kiss you

 

(good thing i didnt upgrade it to 2.50)

 

1 bad thing tho no snow!!

 

other than that this devics perfect!

Interesting...when I try to spawn a Reefer (boat) by the Street, the game freezes, but when I try to spawn it near water (at the beach) it says 'Cheat Activated' but I can't seem to find where it has spawned...

[Sektor]

I haven't finished the missions, so not interested in cheating yet but I am very interested in how it works. Are you limited to running code only the LCS script engine supports? I'm hoping you have found a new method to launch homebrew.

[AndyGanteks]

This should be pinned.

 

anyway i was wondering i dont own the game but maybe after you spawn hunter or any flyable vehicle that doesnt crashes the game you take it to pay-n-spray.Maybe the trick works and it(VEHICLE) get tires.and you could also try to put it in garage.

[Matty323]

This is great man. I have a Question, The Australian Version of GTA:LCS (region 4) is coming out this friday (4 days away) and i was wondering, if it would work with the AU version of the game??? I know yout gonna make a Uero version, Will you make an Australian version Aswell??? if you could that would be really great

[Waterbottle]

how do I spawn vehicles? pressing X dosn't work

[Sektor]

The Australian version will most likely be identical to the euro version.

[j3r0m3z]

hey could you make normal hydrolics that dont go that high, and can be used anytime in the car,also normal handing, not perfect, by changing the Perfect Traction cheat, get me edison?

[NathanHenry]

how do I spawn vehicles? pressing X dosn't work

To spawn a vehicle you go to the road and under the spawn with Rhino cheat you highlight the vehicle you want and put in the Rhino spawn cheat and it spawns that vehicle in the middle of the road instead of the Rhino.

 

Rhino Cheat: L1, L1, Left, L1, L1, Right, Triangle, Circle
