Hi to all!!!
Please, excuse my terrible english... 🙁
I know that one may cheat in dos game when dos is emulated using a windows-chet utility like f.e CE,Crysearch,Artmoney, etc......
But if you are like me and wanna re-create under emulators the same emotions as when you were playing under real dos, in this case you need a dos cheat program....
Basically there are 3 game cheat utilities:
- Game wizard 32 ver. 30a
very good program, require a 386 machine, has got an unvaluable option not available in other program: the save/load option inside a game as support for that game who does not have a game load/save function. also get an option shell to dos "inside" a game, a good search engine for both know/unknow value, support dos extender without limitation, run in "limitated" mode under DosBox: the load/save option not working, the search engine dos not work if you are making use of expanded memory NOT managed by Emm386.exe.
In other emulator, or under dosbox with the option to boot from your hd image , works 100%.
-Fpe (fix people expert) 2000 version x dos:
under the search/patching perspective it's even better than Game Wizard 32, run under dosbox and emulator with no problems at all, but does not have the load/save and the shell to dos options.
-Infinity Machine by Rem Software
no extra-option available, but at least for my experience has the better search engine able to find almost everything, even when the other gametools were not able in finding values...
- If you system "pure or emulate dos" is not under a 386 processor you may use Fpe ver 2.5 who only need dos 2.00 and only conventional memory.
For this really ancient system are there many other utilies available, but always require at least a 386 processor to operate.
BTW, even with this power utilities available sometimes it is impossible to get they working.
F.e. cheat utility may NOT popup inside the game, or it may popup, but then you pop the keyboard is dead and you have to reset your system.
Some example: Quake 1, Fifa, kickoff3,Super Street fighter 2 turbo
So actually i'm working for finding a solution for gettin these utilities coming back to work.
if you have find some other game who does NOT let use these game cheat utilities, please let me know.
If you need further specifical info please send a PM,also if you wanna test the utility I'm actually writing about these problems.
