Thank you! This is perfect!!!! Now we can easily add or remove cheats as we need, change values and all that great stuff! You sir, are a LEGEND!!

Not sure if anyone else is having this issue, but whenever I try to start a game with cheats enabled I get stuck at a white screen. Just want to know if anyone else is reporting this issue and if there's a fix. Thank you!

Edit: I think I've figured out the problem. I tested this on a stock dreamcast and it works fine. The dreamcast I was using has Japanese Cake 1.32 installed for BIOS. I imagine this is what is causing the freezing/crashing issues. It's stated on the JC blog that a new cheat disc needs to be written for the 1.32 and he hasn't done it yet and don't imagine he will.

Edit 2: LOL!! Well, this is embarrassing, it was 100% JC 1.32. I reverted back to 1.31 and all is well with the cheats! So noted, JC 1.32 doesn't work with CodeBreaker cheats for OpenMenu, in case anyone was wondering lol.

I'd like to post my FCDCHEATS.BIN that I've made, it has 333 games, so please feel free to add more if people find them. I am struggling right now with the Headhunter codes, they don't appear to be working, I converted them from Action Replay, so that may be why.

do i need a vmu or a working clock battery for the style selection to remain after powering off the console? i keep having to change it back to scroll and gdmenu theme every time.

openMenu settings are saved to VMU.

What is the proper way to update from an older open menu build to the latest? Same for the DAT file. I thought it would be just drop the files in the folder but I don't see anything different and definitely didn't get any new covers with the newer DAT file.

anyone know if there any videos of the Folders working on Openmenu? I'm curious about how it works/looks as I might get rid of my MODE if it does what I hope it does.

god job

https://github.com/megavolt85/openmenu/releases/latest

added:
API for VM2 (only after release update VM2 FW)
external cheats file

So where do I put these files in the manager program?

unpack directory menu_data from archive to tools\openMenu\ and confirm replace
