CheatDevice v0.8 for LCS

[spitfireskater00]

when i load the save file, everything goes good, and it loads properly. unfortunetaly when i try to spawn any vehicles nothing happens! i have read all the previous posts, and yet to have come to a conclusion as of why it is doing this. i can change the weather, turn inf. health and armor or, same with the time, but the vehicle spawns dont work for me. nothing happens, and i tried it neer streets, in street, everywhere. well please clue me in if they may be something i am not doing right. i have firmware 2.0, thank you

You need to enter the spawn cheat codes to spawn things:

Spawn Rhino L1, L1, LEFT, L1, L1, RIGHT, TRIANGLE, CIRCLE

Spawn Trashmaster TRIANGLE, CIRCLE, DOWN, TRIANGLE, CIRCLE, UP, L1, L1

 

The link was broken for about 5 minutes. I accidently put 0.1a up there for 2 minutes at first, it was supposed to be 0.1b. If you got the file CheatDevice01aUS.zip during the first 2 minutes, download CheatDevice01bUS.zip.

 

Jeremie: those are good ideas.

 

Yes, it does work on both fw 2.0 and fw 2.01.

did you type in the rhino or trashmaster cheat?

[spitfireskater00]

yeah, i never used the rhino or trashmaster cheat so scold me now if u would like....thank you!!!!

[Sektor]

Was the hinter in the codes for LCS, and was it in the game already, or was it something which you added to. To make it even better? If it wasn't in the orginal code this could be amazing, as new vehicles and such could be added to the game. Unfortunantly for me though i have PSP firmware 2.5, and so i am unable to play this great mod, although from what i've heard and seen it's very good, well done.

The hunter and all the vehicles were already in the game, this just gives you access to them. It's still amazing work.

[spitfireskater00]

thank you very!!!! i didnt understand befor that you have to put in the trashmaster cheat, or the rhino cheat to get it. works great! when i spawned the hunter it caught on fire, but then quickly whent out. i am not 100% sure it was the hunter, it may have been a car under it, but if this has happend to someone else then i know im not crazy.

[edisoncarter]

All the motorcycles are tiny little retarded looking things when you spawn them. They have tiny wheels and they jitter around and try to get up on one wheel. If you spawn a bunch of them in one place, you can make an awesome explosion.

 

It seems like I can load savegames with impunity with this 0.1b version. No crashes so far.

[gir489]

Instead of applying the trainer to your personal save, you should just apply it to a fresh-new save.

 

It'd save you the embarrassment.

I have a version 2.5 PSP, and I turned on my PSP without the UMD in, then when it started up I put the UMD in, and let it sit for about five minutes while the preview video for LCS was playing. Next I pressed X to start the UMD, didn't press any buttons, let the start-up movie play and everything, and then on the loading screen it went fine, and then it loaded the file, but when it came up, I waited for a while but the cheat device's menu didn't come up. I tried pressing L1+up and L1+R1+up, but nothing worked. So, edisoncarter, it looks like this can run on a 2.5 PSP without crashing, but the device doesn't start up. Is there any way to remedy this problem?

[PSP1001]

So ed can you MOD cars or anything like that?

It's probably loading your save file, and not Slot 0.

 

You should start out in Staunton Island's safehouse.

[gir489]

That'd be nice. Make them BP/DP/FP/EP.

[LegendKiller]

Holy sh*t dude, you've outdone yourself.

This is f*cking awesome, and I must say, you own.

Anyway, maybe for the next release you can get rid of all of the vehicles that crash the game and rename the rest?

 

For example 'SHELBY' renamed to 'Hall.GT' and stuff.

Still, f*ckin awesome work.

Edison, Im trying this tomorro, but damn it, you are incredible. This is great, just when I started to lose interest, here he comes with a mad mod that wont stop me playing. Oh and Rockstar.....employ this man.

No, it loads up the cheat device, it has the helicopter icon for the save file, you have $53,110, you start in the Staunton safehouse, and there's a v8 ghost and pcj-600 in the garage.

Also, instead of having to type the code when you're done, could you make a 'Spawn Vehicle' button?

 

Infact, here's everything I think should be done:

 

-Renaming of all WORKING vehicles

-Removing of all NONWORKING vehicles

-Addition of 'SPAWN CAR' button

-Addition of CHEAT SELECTION menu

-Addition of REPAIR CAR button (equivalent of Pay 'n' Spray)

-Addition of PED SELECTION menu

 

I know this is all alot to ask for, but these are just ideas.

If they're possible, and not too much work, I can guarantee we'd love em.

^^^^^^

I hope that there is a version for 2.5.

 

edisoncarter said that when he gets one (V.2.5), he'll make it......

Well, he better hurry.

[rela82me]

Shouldn't this post be in gameplay forum... this isnt really discussing the game, we are discussing cheats and gameplay.... I think that this isnt nessacary to be in this fourm. Not to be picky... just pointing this out. friendly advice by

Now now, don't start with the hurry up edison crap, we had to go through that when gta san came out, remember the man probably has a busy life outside the fourms.

ok i had one problem with this. When i spawned any motocycle u cant get on it and i dont have any wheels but if u push it in ur garage its fine, anyone else had this prob? O by the way edisoncarter this is THE MOST AWWSOMEEST THING EVER, UR RELE OUTDID URSELF

[Dansen]

Hi Edison, hi Forum! I am new here, but I've been reading for several years, some might know me from the German forum GTAReactor.

 

I have a 2.5 FW on my Euro PSP, and I will try to help.

 

I can load your savegame with the heli in the garage since my game is the US-Version.

 

The behaviour of the CheatDevice Savefile is strange (Yes I know I have a 2.5 FW and it is not supposed to work) but I encountered the following:

 

I am able to load the file. I have the money and the two specific cars in the garage. But strangely it doesn't work everytime I try it. And if I am able to load it, I cannot see anything on my screen that looks like the cheat device.

 

So I think maybe it could help to compare the heli-savefile to the cheat-device-savefile in order to fix that problem.

I would be happy if you told me how you did this, I study computer sciences and know some programming languages, so maybe I can help.

 

Regards, Dansen

 

EDIT: It seems like you must be outside your savepoint in order to be able to load the game. Loading inside makes the game crash! Loading inside is working, but no cheat menu available.

What puzzles me, is how the hell did he get his own code into the save file, without screwing any of the saved date up?

[Nautilus]

[PSP1001]

So can you MOD cars ( or add cars) or things like that now?

[tehhunter]

Don't you know? Edison is Jesus incarnate. The second coming. Duh.

@PSP-Mod: Probably not. I'm not sure, but I think he doesn't have a mean to import the car models, textures, and properties.

[bigboi00069]

what amazes me is that he did all this without access to the game itself, only the save. even if he could access the game, he couldnt alter anything since its on a UMD disk.

 

Also, with the bikes, is is possible use them looking like that? when i try to get on it, it freezes. edison- there are 2 things i hope you can do, make some of the ones that freez work, and get throttle in the Dodo. I have faith in ya buddy, you are AMAZING!!!!

[Dansen]

When I think logically modding will not be possible. All cars are read from the UMD Disk; what Edison did is (as awesome as it is) make something (vehicles) appear, that IS ALREADY in the game. That means we could find the Seasparrow, the Waterplane and some other vehicles from VC if they are on the UMD Disk - if they are not I see less chances for modding. Of course it would be possible within the ISO file for those who have recordable UMD media or some program to start games from the memory card via bootloader or whatever it is named but remember: this was theoretically possible on the PS2 as well, but no one did that since it was too complicated. Maybe there WILL be a chance if R* provides us with Updates for the games like additional cars, weapons and so on which are not already on the UMD, then, maybe there's a slight chance but currently I think it's far more less than Turkey's chance to join the European Union :-)

also, how come if you hold down L and left, it shows all of the running threads. Try it, its weird..

[GTA3Freak-2001]

Then you'd come to the problem of LCS needing 2.0 which doesn't allow for isoloading homebrew so atm that's totally out.

[WunSick]

with these crashes i assure you, there is no risk for brickage, your not accessing the firmware in any way, well not with write privledges anyways.
