ok so there has been some confusion on how to get cheats to run on desktop games.
first go here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Lcmi6s-2cU
this youtube video explains the process how the numbers work.
put simply, take the number of the max items in the item in the TOP of the inventory FIRST.
then multiply by the number of item slots occupied by items [the other items do not matter. they are poo.]
then add 1. [why 1? maybe it is lonely? i heard somewhere it is the loneliest number..]
the number you get is the "value" you must search when running your game AT THE SAME TIME as you run cheatengine.
go here for how cheat engine works:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WG7GmfdCLGo
basically you click "new search" searching a new value for the number gotten above.
then click on "readme" it will open a dropdown.
after searching the number/value gotten above it should give a list saying "first item" and something about "quantity".
click on the area on the right and select the item you are using in that top slot. then select the PRECISE amount you have in the line below.
next, WHILE RUNNING THE GAME [seriously DO NOT close the game during all this or it WILL NOT WORK] simply toss one of the first slot items.
now repeat that math trick from section 1:
take the NEW current item amount in slot 1, multiply by the number of slots of items, then add 1.
NOW, type THAT number into the search in cheatengine and click the button to the right of "new search" [whatever] that should say like "next search" or something.
forget the values in the left window.
now GO BACK down to the list where it says "item slot 1" and "quantity" [or whatever shite].
click the box that should be below it. it will open an assload of number lists, values, and the names of the items in your inventory [not all of them but quite a few].
the items listed are by name and below them is a second line of values and numbers where the "quantity" is listed at the end. [so if you had 6 nuggets itll say "nugget" then below there will be a line saying "6"
change that sob number quant to LITERALLY ANYTHING between 1 and 99 [cant carry above 99 of any item].
in REAL TIME the game will change the item amount to whatever you selected.
if you want to play "let break the code" try inputs above 99 or below 1. did that once and it filled my bag with things from the realms of the unknown. like the glitches were so glitchy that the glitches couldnt tell what kind of glitchy things the glitchy things were. also try setting your pokemon team via the same mtehod. fun things can happen...

shiny hunting guide: how to shiny hunt smeargle and catch WITHOUT FAIL [experts only - s&m + us&um]
this is how to shiny hunt smeargle and never fail at catching one when it shows shiny.
these steps are for the sun/moon and ultra games, but also work for shiny hunting smeargle in general as they can be used in all generations since smeargle was introduced. choice items can be subbed simply for more base speed.
PART 1:
1. get two pokemon that know transform [use ditto or catch two normal smeargle first, pref. one with the technician ability]
2. get an item that boosts speed [choice items are best]
3. have one of the pokemon that know transform also know false swipe AND one decent attacking move [mew works perfect. if no mew, then refer to step one]
4. send out the sole at the head of the party.
5. find a wild smeargle
PART 2:
now this is the complicated part.
1. use transform on the wild smeargle using the pokemon that ONLY knows transform. [smeargle will sketch the move]
2. IMMEDIATELY switch to the pokemon with the transform, false swipe, and attacking move. [smeargle will transform INTO this pokemon, copying its 5-stat total. which is why youll need speed items].
3. in all generations prior to the sun/moon games you have to soft reset or random encounter. in sun/moon simply false swipe the current smeargle and kill the others that show up till you get a second sos shiny [or hidden moody].
4. once the shiny or moody shows its bob ross head, repeat the same steps as 1-3 from above part 2.
this works because every time smeargle uses transform it turns into your pokemon and gives itself 5 pp. meaning there is a 1 in 3 chance each turn it will reset its pp and after 10 turns MAX it will be GUARANTEED to use transform and reset its pp again. so it never struggles to death and with false swipe and pp restores you can keep from killing it offensively.
whats more is this creates a scenario where in x/y and sun/moon you can transform into any of the smeargle you DONT want, allowing smeargle to KEEP TRANSFORMING even if this WONT work via the basic steps above. ESPECIALLY in x/y where hoardes show and shiny hunting can be a pain. the entire hoarde will get virtually infinite pp.
SECONDARY TIP:
here are some pokemon shiny hunting tips that can help newbs or pros:
when hunting seviper/zangoose, carbink/sableye, sudowoodo/trevanent bring the opposite of the pokemon you want [or a secret easter egg]
seviper: bring zangoose, zangoose: bring seviper, carbink: bring a carbink, trevanent: bring a water or grass type, sudowoodo: bring a fire type.
reason is zangoose/seviper fight each other. when hunting one, the other will attack it if it shows. wild zangoose attack sevipers and vice/versa.
and in carbinks case, sableye EATS gemstones and WILL SPAWN when trying to catch a carbink. and it WILL attack it, ANY carbink.
trevenants case is because sudowoodo spawns INSIDE trevanent hoardes. so fire wont do much anything to sudowoodo, meanwhile water and grass can kill it.
my next shiny guide may have others. though cubones spawning kangaskans in sos seems a little TOO coincidental. its a cubone. calling for help. which they ONLY cry to their mothers. and then big momma kangaskans come show up. and kangaskans are born holding babies, and cubones share a similar biome as kangas. though i still say cubones are charmanders whose tail fires have went out and they just "evolved and adapted". nuff said.

TEEN TITANS GO! to the movies - MAJOR teaser moment [missed by everyone]
I JUST HAAAAAD TO POINT THIS OUT...
ok so pretty much everyone missed this GIANT scene here in the movie. a few points to cover:
you missed several HUGE hidden secrets. mainly the movie poster for the "shazam" live action movie, as well as a GIANT reference to the upcoming animated "reign of the supermen" movie. in a background shot "steel" and "superboy" stand next to a giant shazzam movie poster. steel has a red cape and supermans classic red "S", which for anyone who saw the teasers for "reign of the supermen" the movie has steel taking on supermans role and a man wearing a black "s" on his shirt.
also you can see the "superman-batman" whom is a hybrid fusion of batman and superman reference if you look ABOVE the doorway. it is represented by the batman bat insignia housing the red "s" in the center.
funny how the SHAZAM poster has the crew working on it. haha. we see what youre doing there guys... cause... you know... they are CURRENTLY WORKING ON the SHAZAM movie....
funny how this went by people and yet nobody points it out in a video. how did i get this? screenshot. on my computer. that i took myself. how did i do that? F!@k off, thats how...

sooo.... WHAT?!? THE SIMPSONS ARE DEAD?!? and its all in her head
soo ive been rewatching the simpsons and started watching kim possible,
cant help but notice all the odd creepy references to the afterlife in the simpsons. and the fact that the people there never leave the town and even haloween spoofs get referenced. fairly early in the show we see homer watch a family get "raptured" into heaven in their car. many other instances of charatcers being in heaven and hell scenarios are played. there is even one of homer falling asleep at the wheel during the time lisa has her pony. we see his car go off a cliff, get caught by winged angels, and carried up into the air before homer wakes up.
ok so what if everyone in the town is dead? and the reason they cannot leave is BECAUSE they can never come back. what if springfield is ACTUALLY purgatory?
ok so follow me on this, everyone is alive until a short time into the series when we see homer get hid job at springfield nuclear as safety inspector. being inept and uneducated the plant suffers a HORRIBLE meltdown and blows, taking the entirety of the town with it. as a result the town goes to purgatory where they wait for passing to either heaven or hell. this is why when we see many people get a chance to leave [like kent brockman winning the lottery] they choose not to. and why many who do never come back, despite the town somehow located between heaven and hell.
basically bart DOES leave, goes to hell, satan offers him the role as the antichrist. thus why bart always mentions satan when doing bad, and why later on he and homer drift apart. homer and the others are dead, bart knows he will leave and return to earth. so he stops caring about his family and being the antichrist is why he has such little concern for his actions or the town. because he KNOWS its not real. and lisa is intended to be the one who stops him.
this is kind of confirmed when bart sits atop the "throne" of St. Teresa of Ávila [when maggie turns out to be the savior of mankind], and upon doing so LITERALLY starts armageddon. summoning black magic, lava, flames, and the whole kaboodle saying "i am SO staying up past my bedtime".
meanwhile flanders is representative of death, always seeming to be around when either evil or holy shite hits the fan. flanders serves both heave and hell and is the one dedicated as the "keeper" of the town, keeping them from learning the truth. this is also why his wife is killed off, she was keeping him from doing his job. it is also why flanders can somehow DIRECTLY communicate with the devil AND god.
springfield being in purgatory is also why in the movie they bubble the town. the flying epa helicopters are actually disguised angels, and they place the whole town in the dome because if they were to escape they would learn that there is nothing beyond it, that they are in fact, dead. it is also why homer and his family keep being banned from locations in the real world.
as for why they can leave, well in reality its either an illusion of them living out their lives before passing on to the afterlife, or it is due to bart being the antichrist. as a result he can go wherever he wants in the real world, and as long as he considers them family and holds nothing agaisnt them, they can go too.
basically everything we see in the show and the reason why there are sentient animals and literal dark and holy powers is because the whole town is dead. [partially can be backed up by treehouse of horror episodes intros where everyone is undead and act littel to no different thean normal.] this may also be why nobody is affected by the serious unregulated power plant and why when people die its just like, "eh, OOH LOOK! A DOLLAR!"
SECOND THEORY:
homer is a clone.
there is a post apocalyptic future in "rosebud" occupied solely by homer clones.
also there are many women, men, children, and even animals whom are just like him.
THIRD:
on the other hand it could be because homer killed everyone [in the previous theory] everything resembles him because of it. and homer is being punished in purgatory/hell for his mass murder and stupidity. and why everyone hates him, why the world is against him, and why everything works out for him in the end. purgatory is not hell, it is a place of judgement. and should homer be the sole one there he could be passing time till he is judged by living through his life.
now THIS one:
the "kim possible" series takes place all in kims head.
this is why everyone is totally ok with her going on her "missions". basically having brilliant parents and no friends, she was rejected in preschool by everyone and eventually made ron up. shes actually suffering from schitzophrenia and the world she has adventures in is her way with coping with her empty life. not being as smart as her parents or brothers she feels left out, creates ron and ruufus, and delves into her mind for her "adventures".
drakken and shego are nothing more than the evil interpretations of her own parents created inside her mind. if you look at drakken and kims father, they came from the same school, had the same friends, and even act similar. and they get along with each other when they meet without confrontation. shego and kims mother share the same confidence and psychological attitudes. kims mother is a brain surgeon who uses scaples to cut people open, shego uses energy claws to cut people open. even shegos attitude towards drakken mimics kims mothers attitude towards her husband. it also explains why everyone is just TOTALLY OK with letting a teenage girl go out lone across continents to risk her life and be around quaetionable boys, and just leave school out of the blue.
it is all because she made up her secret agent self in her head and lives a fantasy to avoid the realization that she is nothing more than a cheerleader with average intelligence. and also why when others in the show have their own sagas she struggles to play along, because shes "doing her own thing" and living her own fantasy which now has to encompass into others.
so yeah... there you go. thoughts?

in case you were wondering: waterboarding [from the mouths of a sociopath[
anyone ever wondered what it is like to be waterboarded? why would anyone even WANT to know? our favorite white cartoon dog made a joke about it on fox. but waterboarding is no laughing matter. its like drowning, only you dont die. and every few seconds you get just enough air to barely get your thoughts together before you go under again.
there are several types of waterboarding: via a wet soaked cloth shoved into ones mouth, being shoved facedown into water, or being dunked "baptism style" repeatedly are three.
you want an image? imagine being given a swirly. only its not a toilet. its about a foot of water. and there are about 5-10 people forcibly shoving your face and head down into the water. they hold your head under the water and restrain your body. meanwhile you freak out. you thrash, flail, panic, and try everything you can to get free. but there is no escape, their hold is unbreakable and you CAN AND WILL DROWN.
they hold you under and watch as you feel the life fading from your body. you slowly gasp for air and frantically try to get out and free, but to no avail. slowly but surely you begin to suffocate and drown. you begin to accept your circumstances and prepare to welcome the sweet serenity of death and swallow the water.
BUT WAIT! they see you struggling less, THEY KNOW you are about to drown. so they PULL YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE WATER and suddenly you realize you can get a breath of air. BUT NO! they shove your head back under the water before you can get a second breath. NO! you flail and scream and shreik, but they just smile and laugh. you are under the water again, you feel things going black. you begin to drown once more, but just as you accept your fate, WHOOSH! out of the water again!
you try to scream, "NO!" but your screams are muffled as they force your head back under and the sound of your voice turns to churning bubbles. you begin to flail harder, realising your life is in danger. but they just push you down harder, they know your limit now. they wait, as you slowly gasp under the water, and they see the color begin fading from your eyes. WHOOSH! out your head goes again!
but this time you have a plan. you go limp, they let their guard down, you take advantage of the moment and break free. but before you get three steps more come in. now they drag you screaming, crying, shrieking, begging, over to the water once more. they force your head back under, and watch as you begin to drown once more. but just before you die they pull your head out.
you give up, stop fighting, maybe they will stop. NOPE! back down goes your head! into the water, as they watch you begin to drown once more. they dont care, they just want to see you suffer. its been 30 minutes now, and all you want is TO JUST DIE. but no, even th sweet taste of death is beyond your conctrol. every aspect of your life has been surrendered to these monsters. they wont let you live, they wont let you die, they just want to see you suffer.
you have lost all control and all you can do is wait and pray they let you go or let you die. past, present, and future have lost all meaning. as they scream threats and insults at you and your loved ones, and use those you care about against you, you are repeatedly pushed just near the point of drowning and right before you are pulled free. eventually you stop caring about anything and everything, you go numb.
its official, you have been driven mad.

revo k101 UPDATE! [new cheat system] + figured how to add cheats to pcsx2
ok. spending my time hacking things to go places where no device has or should go, i found some intersting things.
i found a program called "omniconvert", which allows conversion of cheat codes from nearly any format TO nearly any format. omniconvert can be used to convert cheats so you can use much more variety when playing a revo k101. and also when playing a vita, wii, ds, or ps3. because only recently did we recieve the keys to playing emulators on those systems [and now my vita is AWESOME, well it was already, its just MORE awesome now].
i also found this:
http://www.luxatom.com/gg2raw.html
this is a conversion page that lets you convert game genie codes to a raw format that can be used in snes emulation.
i also know how to create working cheat files for pcsx2 and dolphin.
and i got google play running on blackberry.
i will maybe be trying my luck at a ds next.

mgba savefile glitch bug fixed [i found what was causing the games to not save] [mgba not saving FOUND ISSUE! TEMP FIXED!]
mgba is a gameboy advance emulator made for pc and hacked consoles. i can provide info on how to run it on your vita [thats right gba, gbc, and gb on your playstation vita and playstation 3 FUCK YEAH!] and it is as AWESOME as you think. also you can even use cheats, however you need to administer them on mgba on your pc then transfeer the savefie with whateve the cheats did over to the dvice RUNNING mgba. or just patch them in [i have a post on that as well].
for anyone using mgba youve probably found that there seems to be an issue with the software not saving states and/or not saving your saves/files correctly. turns out theres an odd bug in the software which causes the emulator to stop registering or writing savefiles [regardless of the fact that you did save].
but i figured out PRECISELY what is going on with the saving issue.
turns out thers a glitch in the emulator that occurs EXACTLY after loading your current savefile and starting the game. once in if you complete actions in games and save and leave the game or exit to the consoles menu [or anything that involves leaving the mgba emulator game you are playing] the emulation software glitches out and refused to load or save any savefiles created after returning. basically if on a vita or wii and you temporarily exit the app or the console sleeps the game you are playing will no longer register saves. it will however keep the most recent savefile UP TO the first point you exited.
on the vita i tested this, using single and multiple actions and various methods of leaving the game from total leaving to just putting the console on screen sleep or pressing the PS button. upon returning and doing LITERALLY ANYTHING after these actions NOTHING saves. however ALL ACTIONS and game data achieved PRIOR to these things after loading the game up and then saving actually created a valid savedata.
so the mgba developer team just needs to find where in the code it is causing the game to exit upon going standby and basically write the app to always run in the background. that should theoreticaly prevent games from thinking you left.
otherwise if you want to keep your savefiles and play being able to save just make sure you save BEFORE doing anything that might exit the game.
i did however find a bypass for lack of savegame capabilites:
1.use the "take screenshot" option
2. go to the "save state" option
3. save state
4. when you restart your game back up, if your normal savegame fails just load the save state.
i tested it and taking a screenshot seems to guaraantee the ability to create a savestate every time. to check whether the state saved just move or change the visuals around you in some way and go to "load state" and select whatever # state you saved. if its different from your current view, it worked.
but there you go. i found what was going on with this rediculous saving issue and even found a way around it. now someone please go fix it. the dev team has been supposedly trying to fix this for some time now [and me of good faith that i am guessed since they had NO FUCKING CLUE what the hell was causing it, meant they couldnt fix it.] but here you go devs, i found two errors in the most recent version of mgba, one being the specific reason why vita users cant save.
my best guess is its something in the code where leaving the emulator causes the system to stop running jailbroken/hacked code and when you return [despite being able to keep playing normally and save] the vitas system treats the app as any other app.
that or something occurs that causes it to stop writing code specifically to do with savedata, but ONLY when the vitas hardware is running. because pressing triangle doesnt cause savedata to be lost or fail to save.
its gotta be like 1-5 lines of arbitrary code execution that gets fubar only when this situation occurs.
for anyone using mgba youve probably found that there seems to be an issue with the software not saving states and/or not saving your saves/files correctly. turns out theres an odd bug in the software which causes the emulator to stop registering or writing savefiles [regardless of the fact that you did save].
but i figured out PRECISELY what is going on with the saving issue.
turns out thers a glitch in the emulator that occurs EXACTLY after loading your current savefile and starting the game. once in if you complete actions in games and save and leave the game or exit to the consoles menu [or anything that involves leaving the mgba emulator game you are playing] the emulation software glitches out and refused to load or save any savefiles created after returning. basically if on a vita or wii and you temporarily exit the app or the console sleeps the game you are playing will no longer register saves. it will however keep the most recent savefile UP TO the first point you exited.
on the vita i tested this, using single and multiple actions and various methods of leaving the game from total leaving to just putting the console on screen sleep or pressing the PS button. upon returning and doing LITERALLY ANYTHING after these actions NOTHING saves. however ALL ACTIONS and game data achieved PRIOR to these things after loading the game up and then saving actually created a valid savedata.
so the mgba developer team just needs to find where in the code it is causing the game to exit upon going standby and basically write the app to always run in the background. that should theoreticaly prevent games from thinking you left.
otherwise if you want to keep your savefiles and play being able to save just make sure you save BEFORE doing anything that might exit the game.
i did however find a bypass for lack of savegame capabilites:
1.use the "take screenshot" option
2. go to the "save state" option
3. save state
4. when you restart your game back up, if your normal savegame fails just load the save state.
