Cheat disc that doesn't require boot disc?

Post by SpaghettiCat »

I want to try out some of these widescreen hacks I've been seeing.

Anybody know of a cheat disc that:
A) Works with burnt discs
B) Is able to save codes to VMU
C) Doesn't require an extra boot disc

All I want is to pop in the cheat CD, load my widescreen code, then put in my game and play, if that's possible?

I have Dreamshell and one of those SD cards that plugs into the serial port if it matters.

That's too bad. It's a pain to have to flip 3 discs just to play. Maybe it's easier with the GDEmu?

If someone missed it I uploaded a complete cdi of neuroacid's cbloader with integrated codebreaker. Just burn, put the disc in, when asked swap for the game, select cheats and start. No more need to do a three-disc swap. Also saving cheats to vmu works well and if you rebuild the cdi you can even integrate them into the disc to save vmu space. The saves can be generated manually from codebreaker or from pc using xpdccc. I'm slowly compiling all the widescreen codes to be integrated into the image. If someone would help will be appreciated.
