I was wondering that, If possible, somebody could make a cheat so that the corpses would stay and not vanish like in perfect dark. and if possible, a cheat that lets mines and knives stick into the enemies.

[Rey]

I believe there is already a code that the guards body does not vanish,However it was only for Facility.

hmmmmm I imagine this shouldn't be that hard The editor can remove flags, etc on objects. You can easily just turn them off or on BUT converting them to work on gameshark is BEYOND me. Ask WRECK...he has the formulas

I know nothing about N64 programming, or how Goldeneye works. But with that caveat (i.e. a total admission that I might well be wrong), I have to say that I think such a code might be very difficult if not impossible to make. As far as I can see, Rare made the bodies in Goldeneye disappear for one or more of three possible reasons;

1) to save memory (as each body that exists takes up RAM to signify it's position, state, relative direction, etc), and

2) to stop the game slowing down (if it has to draw multiple corpses to the screen at any point then it's more time and effort for the N64 to expend, potentially slowing the game at that point),

3) because if the bodies stay then a corpse would alert a passing guard, which didn't fit into the optional-stealth that Rare wanted Bond to be capable of.

Point 3 is technically irrelevant (though if Goldeneye does get fixed so that corpses stay, it does raise the issue of how we want the guards to react to discovering a corpse during the course of their patrol), and point 2 doesn't matter too much, as there are unlikely to be many points where the number of onscreen corpses would slow the action down significantly (and being Goldeneye players we're used to low frame-rates anyway), but point 1 could be a real problem. Granted the data needed to be stored in RAM for each corpse is probably pretty negligable (especially given Rare's technical prowess, it's probably just a few bytes each), but even if this is the case, then it might well be that the RAM area allocated for such data is strictly partitioned by other important data, and so the list can't be easily lengthened to cope with more ingame corpses, unless the RAM data structure of the game is rewritten.

And even if the corpse RAM pool is free to extend however much we need, it will still have upper limits, which could be reached on any level with infinitely respawning guards. Alright, so the game could always be capped to only have no more than fifty corpses, say, so that when a fifty-first corpse is created then it's data overwrites the data for the first corpse, and the first corpse disappears from the game (this is how bullet holes are handled, for example), but it's still a question of how easy it would be to alter Goldeneye to allow the game to keep x corpses in the game at any time.

But if such a code already exists (even if for only one level), then that proves of course that it's possible, and perhaps the game is (partially or fully) set up to allow this anyway, and Rare later imposed a time/number limit on the corpses to avoid bugs or slowdown as a result of too many corpses. Does anyone know where this facility code can be found, please?

BTW, Perfect Dark doesn't keep all of the corpses until the end of the level, it's just slower than Goldeneye in deleting them, as it seems to delete them according to some rule I've not yet worked out.

This code doesn't work very well, but it's it.

Those 126 lines of GS code are hilarity.. any way to disable 'splosions ? Make them invisible ? I would love seeing the enemies spam death animations clearer

Hah.. imagine if this code could work in the same fashion in splitscreen

[SubDrag]

These other two are fun:

All guards throw grenades facility
500062EE 0000
801D9280 00FF

Also combine with all guards come at you and use 007 mode for stronger guards
500062EE 0000
801D9274 00FF

[Rey]

I remember trying the guards stay in facility. Never worked,only once.

Damn damn damn!!!!!

I'm working away from home, and I have my N64 here (plus laptop and 360) and since I use my Everdrive 64 to carry all of the N64 games as ROM files, instead of carrying cartridges around, I can't try this code. You'd think the forum would have an emoticon for "****!, my Gameshark and GE cartridge are sixty miles away"!

Yes, I know I can try it on an emulator, and I probably will, but I hate N64 emulation, as it's so iffy, so I much prefer the real console.

Anyway, you say it doesn't work very well, what is the problem? Does it only keep a given number of corpses, and if not then is there an upper limit (there must surely be?). How does it work?

[Rey]

I would imagine it keeps or stops guards from spawning. So it the game can run smooth. But, it shouldent mess anything up since the corpse are still there and wont respond when there supposed to.

I already had the cheat "All guards throw grenades facility" for a long time and honestly I like so much, that look similar codes for other GE levels, I wanted to ask if anyone has codes like this for the rest of the levels .

There are sites that are normally generally known codes for a particular game and GE seems it has some codes that people know and have not been published yet.

[MultiplayerX]

I thought the level editor allowed you to edit FLAG properties on any object? If you can live with it and use a PATCH to overwrite your game cartridge I don't see where gameshark codes would even be necessary :O I'm surprised no one has even thought of this but why would you want to limit yourself with the 255 max codes a gameshark allows? I will look into this in my spare time since it's less time consuming than my other projects. Right now though I'm TIED UP with life so just give me a week or so.
