"PAR code" submission.

Post by Rydian »

So. PAR codes. Address:Value. Simple. For anybody that likes games, and can understand the code's construction and purpose, it's great. With ZSNES, we can find all sorts of codes that older console users would never have found with guess-test methods.

So sometimes I'll get a group of cool little codes. Instant pendant powerup activation for chrono trigger? Hell yeah, get marle to join and instantly start opening those boxes. Super mario world spite location editor? Oh yes, you jump and mario's head stays still, instant decapitation!

Of course, the issue is sharing these findings. I once collected 10 codes for star fox, made it into a little FAQ, and submitted it to gamefaqs, which is where I get most of my game info.

Rejected for being too short. There was NO other faq with these codes (or any at all) at that time, so I felt I could contribute for once, since nobody else had before me. But somebody felt that since I didn't go with the gamefaqs spirit and include a 5-paragraph explanation on hex[/], that I hadn't put enough work in. Star fox isn't an RPG with an item list and equipment, there's only so many values that are even vaugely-interesting to modify...

I've tried to submit other findings, but it's all rejected due to length. It's 8-character PAR codes, gamefaqs, I can't MAKE them longer.

So. Since gamefaqs is rejecting me, I want to know a reputable site where I can submit things.
Athlon XP 2800+
765MB DDR-333
AGP Geforce 6200

Took me, what, a year to update this info?
And meh, screw legs.
Oh... puns. I get it. Shame on me.

Look at how other writers do Game Genie/PAR codes. They have decent descriptions and they are a bit more comprehensive.

That's easy filler space.

There's plenty of major sites that take Game Genie+PAR code submissions w/o having to write a huge document anyways. Just google Game Genie/PAR codes for a game and those sites come up easily.
