The Hack FAQ

This Faq will tell you my way of hacking different codes. In theory this sounds very simple but in practice it is a process that needs a lot of patience. I'm generally looking at goldeneye codes here.

The Thoughts
That logo took ages to make..
And notes
Andrew Chinery. I advise you to look at the source code of this and look how complicated that logo is. Then pity me. Also look at anything that has a tag like this <!--***--> and read the beginning of that chapter until the ! tag and substitute it.

Version 1.2
Counting in Hex & the Hexadecimal system

The Simple stuff, Text modifiers & ASCII

Getting bigger, Modifiers --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Counting in Hex and the Hexadecimal system.

The first thing a hacker needs to learn is how to count in hex, it is not like counting in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10, that is simple decimal. Hex goes like this. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F 10 11 etc. Hexadecimal is used to shorten the amount of data needed to be put in the memory. Programmers would rather use two digits than 3 a simple example is the number 255, this nuber isput in as FF, the hexadecimal equivalent. So games will not take as long to develop. All nintendo games use the ASCII code, a code where digits represent symbols, letters and numbers. This code is shown in decimal but programmers use the hex equivalents. In the next chapter you will learn a simple use for ASCII code.

Text Modifiers and ASCII


Text Modifiers are the easiest code to make. They are very simple, yet very long. Here is the FAQ I posted in my AR section about them.


Text modifiers
These modifier codes can change almost any text in the game to almost any text you want. For example you can rename a gun in your own way! There are a few things to remember though...

You can't change text of characters talking (the text that appears at the top of the screen when, for example Natalya says 'James you were wonderful' on control. That text is out of reach of the memory editor on the ar. It should be possible to change it but it would take a lot of finding.
These codes can be several lines long. You need a new line for every letter you want to change. As of yet u can't enter short codes that change multi letters without a gameshark. I don't know how that works on an AR.
To make these codes u must really understand them. If you must have a code and do not have access to a RAM EXPANSION PAK (you can't view the memory editor without it) Then Mail me and i'll try to work it out. P.S If it's rude in any way I'll humiliate u don't worry. I know how these work u know!
You can't use symbols like $ and & signs. You can use numbers but only in certain places.
U can't make changes longer than the amount of characters your changing. For example. If u want to change the word 'James Bond' what you change it to can't be more than 10 letters/Characters (including the space).
The base code is this 8029xxxx 00yy more about that later.
since we've cleared that up lets start. Each letter has it's own string in the game. If you typed in the code "12345678 ABCD
12345678 could be the string for the P in pp7. Therefore the second P would be
12345679 and 7 would be
1234567A.

So now the code looks like this

12345678 0000 (P in pp7)
12345679 0000 (2nd P in pp7)
1234567A 0000 (7 in pp7)


Now the color in Cyan is what we want to change each letter to. Ignore the first 2 no.s (00) Then you put 2 letters or numbers in the code. Those 2 letters or numbers can be almost anything you want. Here is the table that relates to numbers and letters in the game.
(These are the yy parts of the code)
A=41
B=42
C=43
D=44
E=45
F=46
G=47
H=48
I=49
J=4A
K=4B
L=4C
N=4E
O=4F
P=50
Q=51
R=52
S=53
T=54
U=55
V=56
W=57
X=58
Y=59
Z=5A


a=61
b=62
c=63
d=64
e=65
f=66
g=67
h=68
i=69
j=6A
k=6B
l=6C
m=6D
n=6E
o=6F
p=70
q=71
r=72
s=73
t=74
u=75
v=76
w=77
x=78
y=79
z=7A

1=31
2=32
3=33
4=34
5=35
6=36
7=37
8=38
9=39
0=30

@=40
'=60
!=21
"=22
#=23
$=24
%=25
&=26
(=28
)=29
*=2A
+=2B
,=2C
-=2D
.=2E
/=2F
:=3A
;=3B
<=3C
==3D
>=3E
?=3F
[=5B
\=5C
]=5D
_=5F
00=[end string of text] (just put in front of any character for the game to stop reading as text)= 00
[space] (one that doesn't end the text string) = 20

Always use a 20 for a space.

So if u want to change the word PP7 to ABC then this is the code..
12345678 0041
12345679 0042
1234567A 0043
(This code does not work!)

So now u know that. These are the memory addresses u should go to if u want...
xxxx=
C380-CED0 Weapon and gadget names. (In watch I think)
CED8-CF10 Kill count + suicide messages.
D3F8-D558 Intro (Twycross board of. . . )
D560-D5C0 Folder screen.
D5F8-D6B0 Select mission, multiplayer, cheat ops screen.
D6B4-D718 Game length multiplayer settings.
D720-D7C8 Scenario multiplayer settings.
D7D0-D8A8 Health multi settings.
D8B0-D908 Aim and sight multi settings.
D908-D9D0 The main multi screen sets (after the 'multiplayer' in the folder screen)
D9D8-DB18 M brief (not the briefs themselves they are unaccessible) all the way thru to the 'time' &'best time' and head shots e. t. c screen.
DB20-DB48 Cheat select mission.
DB50-DBA0 No controlller message.
DBA8-DD18 Text before level that are in the cut scenes i.e 'Belmoyre Dam'.
DD20-DDF0 Multi level names.
DE40-DE90 Character names in the multi character select screen (I think)
DF98-E1F0 Credit names and intro names (I'm not sure but that seems to be the only place they appear)
E1F0-ONWARD: Picked up a...


If you still don't understand...

I can't blame you. Okay this is the memory editor at the string (this is only an example) PP7. CYAN= STRING NAME YELLOW =STRING VALUE 12345678 40 40 37 00 00 00 00 00
So thats that in the mem edit.

The string name 12345678 has a value of 40 as you see. The next 2 numbers are not the same string.

This brings me on to a lesson. How to count in HEX. You don't count normally. You do it like this.
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F.
So we can work out that (even though the string isn't named(the second one with 40 in it) That it is 12345679
so the string with 37 in it must be 1234567A the next string is 1234567B then C then D then E then F. Then on the next line you should see 12345680.
So in the code you put the three lines like so
12345678
12345679
1234567A
then in the last 4 letters of each line u put the letters/numbers that correspond to the letter you want to change it to.
In this case we want ABC so A=41 B=42 an C=43
So now the code looks like this...
12345678 0041
12345679 0042
1234567A 0043 and if the 1st 8 letters were right that would change the word PP7 into ABC.

Modifiers, Quite hard


These are a lot harder to hack with little to marvel about your results, unless you get a code to get serious Beta objects.

The first thing to do is find out the value of the object you want to modify (I will not explain how to do characer modifiers in this chapter, just object modifiers.)
Here are some modifier values.
00 Classified Folder, beginning of Game
01 Weird Metallic Cube
02 Folder from Beginning
03 DAT (Green thing)
04 Metallic Cube, smaller
05 Metallic Cube, smaller
06 Metallic Cube, smaller
07 Metallic Cube, smaller
08 Metallic Cube, smaller
09 Metallic Cube, smaller
0A Metallic Cube, smaller
0B Metallic Cube, smaller

0C Metallic Cube, smaller
0D Red Card
0E Red Dossier
0F Tan Folder
10 Credit Card, very small
11 Bomb Explosive from Frigate
12 Small Black Box (orange)
13 Videotape
14 Nintendo Logo
15 Goldeneye Logo

4D White Flag, ship on Frigate
4E Road block
4F Small, white piece
50 Small, white piece (square, red/green switch from Dam?)
51 Computer
52 Small Pink Knife?
53 Small White sticking up thing
54 and up, FREEZE
(An acception to this is the Aztec Shuttle modifier. Where only 48 is significant, however. The object that appears in the place of the shuttle is huge, the number intead of 07 is 03 and there are new XX's too. But why have two different object sets for this?)

With these digits, you may end up looking two values before, and finding the numbers 07, this is a good sign.
This is what I mean.
MEMORY EDITOR
80123456 | 07 01 46 00 00 00 00 00

The colour in blue is the number above, in this case 46 - Glass. Two values before it, is the number 07 in red. If this occurs, it is likely that your area will be correct. Also look at the 01 between 07 and 46, this is usually what appears there, not always, more common with veichles rather than other objects.

For these, you are more likely to have 28, instead of 07.
