GE Master: I haven't replied to this as you have obviously wanted to chat to someone other then myself on this matter.
But you cant say you have tried Emu A, Emu B & all do not work, But it does on The real Console.
1) you have to explain to people What you do in the Real Console side things.
IE: on a certain Game, To Use "Set A" Cheats Use Enable Code "Set B" With "Zelda KeyCode" etc
No Emu use these.
No Enable Codes, No Keycodes needed to boot the Game in the AR/GS Cheat Device.
2) have you checked the PJ64 cheats Site & read the Cheats FAQ on N64 Codes Types What is Supported & what isn't.
Incase some codes you are trying to use are unsupported.
3) I did explain quite a few things to you last time & it seemed to kind fly other your head a little, But if you would like to come into the IRC Chan & spend a bit time in there, i am happy to see what you are trying do, & assist how i can.
As for "I'm just wondering about the cheat experts"
Most people on this Forum & indeed users, Are not really hard Core Cheat users Or Tournament Gamers, so they are not really interested in these "Play a certain level in Multi" kind of thing.
I doubt that most have even used the real console So the emu is the 1st time Trying N64
They may use a few cheats here & there but they don't use it to build or change the structure on Games.
