password hacking

I've noticed that someone on http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/snes/code/588803.html (gamefaqs link for the game in question) has found a way to "tell" the game to give you all upgrades, cash, etc at any point in the game, even if they aren't available yet. Does any of that look like hex? I ...

player 1-player 2 code convert

the game in question, top gear 3000.

gives you max cash, 99 million to be exact, the code is 7e039199

I've also got a 4-line code, but have no idea how to make zsnes accept it.

Thanks in advance!

I'm sorry, but your computer won't run zsnes fast. I had a 700mhz athlon back in the day, and it still wasn't 60 fps, plus it only had windows 98 in the background. try a 320x240 resolution if zsnes still has them, or boot into pure dos if you have windows. Game with a dsp-4 chip: minimum of 26 fps...

That system should be able to run ZSNES OK, but you may be running too much stuff in the background that is taking the CPU (anti-virus, firewall, etc.). On the other hand, the ATI Rage Pro is not really helping you a lot. Hmm... installed the drivers from the laptop manufacturers site, instead of d...

video capturing gameplay

Any suggestions on how to do this? Sure, tv-out to a dvd recorder, but then you have quality loss. IIRC, fraps can capture video from 3D engines, but it's really resource-intensive. Any ideas?

No. But finding these "special" codes is almost impossible without understanding the game's code. (Btw. "hex" is a format for displaying number values. It's not much different from "decimal".) I know hex as in "converting a number from decimal to hex" but not...

I've tried 3 different controllers, and setting a button in the turbo section doesn't seem to make it act like that, if I understand "turbo" to mean as if you're constantly hammering the button. Any ideas whats going on?

ok, I'll try keeping everything in the same topic, but if I don't get a response within a few days, I'll assume things just don't work as well that way: In the game, it seems like action replay etc codes are fairly easily made for numerical figures, such as cash and nitro boosts left.

You had to mispell Top Gear 3000 to beat the filter? That is seriously pathetic. Oh, and I'll volunteer to write a new filter that cannot be tricked by using extra spaces, BBCode, or non-ascii chars.

What's the maximum speed you've reached in this game? The guy at gamefaqs says he's reached 750, I remember getting to about that figure before emulators even existed, but I haven't been able to find a track straight enough now that we're in emulation land.

my reccommendation for most snes-like pc gamepad

Gravis gamepad pro, hands down. It's an exact replica of a playstation controller, but let's face it, the snes controllers were never as comfortable anyway :P . I've had one for 7 years, they're great, better than any other control I've tried, and well... they'd be cheap by now, as in $5 cheap.

I'm guessing different multiplier, or equivalent code for Player 2 (if it is a 2P game). I'm guessing you're about as clueless as to which multiplier as me (actually, nobody is as clueless as me when it comes to hex...) Well, I just bothered to google the code you are referring to.
