I.- Author's Note
===================================================================
"Twould be best for this world if I were to dissapear forever".
I guess that said my copy of SOTN a few years ago.
My PSX almost died of overuse, the reason?. This game of course.
Not even with Final Fantasy VII I'd so much fun and spent so
many hours...and days....and weeks...and so on, you get the idea.
After a while, a friend lend me his copy (not knowing what happened
to my own) and I started to play. But unlike other games, I had
my first savegame. So I started to look what items I was missing
but the laziness of the years taught me, that Gameshark, is the
"Holy Grail" of people without too much time. Instead of looking
for the items, I searched the codes on the web, but without luck.
So I started to look the codes for myself, and the results are
pretty good if you ask me. Look and judge by yourself.
===================================================================
II.- Intro
===================================================================
If you know "something" about memory adresses, skip this part
if you dont, read here.
When you insert codes, basically what you're doing (actually the GS
is doing it) is editing values in the memory.
Before Editing
Memory
Address> 1000001 2000002 3000003
-------------------------
| Item1 | Item2 | Item3 |
| | | |
-------------------------
After Editing
Memory
Address> 1000001 2000002 3000009
-------------------------
| Item1 | Item2 | Item9 |
| | | |
-------------------------
This example is a bit "dull" but should do it.
So, when you replace the code 3000003 for 3000009, the first one
dissapear. And you keep the second. Of course, if you dont want to keep
the changes, just dont save it. Or simply create a new file.
The values we use, are in hexadecimal or "base-16" (the one we use
daily is decimal or "base-10"). So if we want to edit, we need to
know a little about this.
===================================================================
III.- Quick view over Hexadecimal numbers
===================================================================
As I said before, hexadecimal (from now on hex) is base-16.
But, what does this mean?. To put it simply, decimal goes from 0 to 9.
So it is:
00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09. Then, add the next number to the left:
10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19. Repeat...
20, 21, 22, and so on.
(In the first example, I used 0's in the left side just for better
understanding)
But in hex, it goes from 0 to F. That is, sixteen "digits". So it is:
00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 0A, 0B, 0C, 0D, 0E, 0F.
(Here, the 0's in the left side are needed.)
10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, 1F.
20, 21, 22, and so on.
Now, the game dont show in the screen values like "1F x Alucard Sword". It shows
"31 x Alucard Sword". Right?. So we need to change from hex to decimal
and viceversa.
There're many ways to change it, even doing a few math with binaries.
But the easiest, is using any "Cientific calculator" (Even windows calc
should do it!).
====================================================================
IV.- Getting Started
====================================================================
sigh* At least, the best part of this guide.
Syntax:
Always ---- -- Identifier
\ /
30097XXX YYYY
\
-- Quantity.
So if we want 99 Monster vial 1. It should be:
3009798B 0063
Where:
- 30097 is the "always" number.
- 98B is the item identifier.
- 0063 is the quantity (in hex) of the item. Keep the 0's even if the number
is less than 256 in decimal. Just for keep things in order and clean.
====================================================================
IV.5.- Left/Right Hand Items.
====================================================================
Here you're going to find every item that goes equipped in any or both hands.
I divide it into several sub-index for a easier reading.
As a note, every item appear at a certain position (mostly, from mid to bottom).

*It doesn't show in the Relics menu, just in the Familiar.
Note: I just find out that you can actually use the 2 new familiars.
Here is how.
1.- Turn off every familiar relic. Then save.
2.- Turn off your console, and activate the code of one new familiar.
3.- Then load your save game, and as soon as you can, save again.
4.- Reset your console, load your save game and voila.
It works like every Familiar. But if you disable it for any reason , you
must do these steps everytime in order to have it with Alucard.
====================================================================
X.- Misc. Codes
====================================================================
A bit uncomplete, but I'll try to update it pretty soon.
Code Description
30097BB4 XXXX Modifies max MP of Alucard.
30097BA4 XXXX Modifies max HP
30097BAC XXXX Modifies max hearts.
30097BEC XXXX Modifies current experience.
30097BE8 XXXX Modifies current level.
To make it easier for you, here some random values. Replace the X's with:
Hex Decimal
0063 = 99
0EE7 = 999
270F = 9999
====================================================================
a.- Muramasa Power Code
====================================================================
Yes, this one gets its own section (just for being a pain in...you know where).
Ahhh...the famous Muramasa code. How many people did look for this on the web?
A lot, but anyways....less blah blah and more action.
1st Row
30097C40 XXXX
2nd Row
30097C41 XXXX
3rd Row
30097C42 XXXX
Why I'd split the code into 3 rows?.
Because, if you want to do 999 to every single monster, including Guardian
and Dracula, you should edit every single "X", and replace it with "F".
But, if you want to inflict a considerable damage to the monsters, just edit
until the second row.
And if you just want to inflict a decent amount of damage, then, edit until the
first row.
You can fill the X's, with numbers from 0 to 9 and with letters from A to F.
====================================================================
XI.- End Stuff
