Hi retrofan01,retrofan01 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 31, 2023 12:25 pm After several years of manually inputting Codebreaker codes using the DC controller whenever I wanted to try a new game, I discovered Xplorer DC Code Compiler recently and decided to put together a complete CodeBreaker cheats file containing:
- all unique codes from GameHacking.org
- codes already built into CodeBreaker
- widescreen codes
- other codes from the Dreamcast-Talk forum
I used the following criteria to determine which codes to add:
- one game one region (1G1R) - this is mostly USA with some Japan-only games but there are a few games which I included PAL cheats for due to one of the following reasons:
- I've personally played through those games in their entirety using those codes and found they worked better than their NTSC equivalents (e.g. Record of Lodoss War, Silver)
- cheat code creators have posted codes for a PAL version of a game which have no NTSC equivalent
- all codes are decrypted (CodeBreaker/XplorerDC). Any encrypted (Action Replay/GameShark) codes have been converted to decrypted format using DCcrypt
I've included:
- fcdcheats (openMenu).txt file containing all the codes (this can be loaded into Xplorer DC Code Compiler and edited further)
- the resulting FCDCHEATS.BIN file generated from fcdcheats.txt, ready for use with openMenu. Unlike previous versions of this cheats file, this will NOT fit on a standard 200 block VMU. If you require a version of the cheats file that will fit on a VMU, please use version 1.2 instead - this takes up 198 out of 200 blocks on a VMU
Instructions:
Extract FCDCHEATS.BIN from the ZIP file then copy it to the following folder inside GDMENU Card Manager, overwriting the old one:
OPENMENU\GDMENUCardManager.v2.0.1-win-x64\tools\openMenu\menu_data\cheats\
Of course, you must then open GDMENU Card Manager with your SD card loaded, then click "Save Changes" in order to rebuild openMenu with the new cheat database.

I've just registered here to say thank you for your idea and initiative, keep up the very good job with this!
Also wanted to say that you could put credits about who created the codes, somewhere if possible.
Another thing I wanted to say is that you can request for new codes on discord channel of Gamehacking.org, discord channel because the forum is read only now.
Thank you again for your great job!
