How to install and use CWCheat on 6.xx CFW

How to install/use CWCheat on 6.xx CFW (PRO, ME, LME)

What is CWCheat?

CWCheat is a plugin that allows you to cheat in retail games on UMDs, ISOs, or CSOs. It also supports some homebrews. There are lots of cheats for lots of games, and you can add more if you want to. It works with 100X, 200X, 300X, Go (N1000), or Street (E1000).

==============

Installation

Note that this will not work with pre-6.xx CFW or OFW. I am not sure about Vita, mostly because I don't have one to try this on.

First, download the following files:

CWCheat: http://pspslimhacks.com/download/583/
CWCheat Database: http://pspslimhacks.com/download/584/
7-Zip: http://7zip.org

Now, extract both archives you have downloaded. Plug in your PSP to the computer (if auto-connect is not enabled, go to Settings -> USB Connection). After that, open your PSP on your computer, and make sure you are in the folder of all folders; where there are no folders holding the files/folders; the root. Go into the "seplugins" folder (if this folder is not there, create it). Then, create a new folder called "cwcheat" inside this folder. Go into the CWCheat plugin (not the database) archive, open the folder inside the archive, and then copy the file "cwcheat.prx" into the "cwcheat" folder you have created. Then, drag the database files from the other archive into the same folder. Go back to your "seplugins" folder, and then look for a file called "GAME.txt" (it must be in all caps) (if not there, create it). Edit this file (there could be nothing or anything in there), and type the following line depending on what PSP you have:

PSP 100X, 200X, 300X: ms0:/seplugins/cwcheat/cwcheat.prx 1
PSP Go: ef0:/seplugins/cwcheat/cwcheat.prx 1

Copy the same line into a file called "GAME150.txt" (if not there, create it). Make sure the plugin is activated by checking in Plugins Manager (ME/LME), or Recovery (PRO). If it is not enabled (which it should be), enable it. Congratulations, you have installed CWCheat!

=============

Usage

To activate CWCheat, hold down the select button for 3 seconds in game. A really ugly menu should appear. Go to "Select Cheats", select the cheats you want, and then go to "Enable cheats" in the main menu. You may have to go somewhere in-game to finish this process. Congrats, you have used CWCheat to cheat in games!

============

How to add new codes

Adding new codes is fairly complex, but doable. To add new codes, open the file "cheat.db" in WordPad. You should see lots of odd-looking stuff. Find the game you want to add a code for (just search the document). Find a place between an _L and a _C0 in your game subsection. Add the following:

_C0 CHEAT_NAME
_L CHEAT
_L MOAR CHEAT

and that is it. If your game is not listed, type the following:

_S GAME_SERIAL
_G GAME
_C0 CHEAT_NAME
_L CHEAT
_L MOAR CHEAT

and there you go!

=================

DISCLAIMER

I, nor the CWCheat creators, are not responsible for bricked PSPs, broken UMDs, dead Memory Sticks, or you getting fired because you cheated. It is YOUR choice to use this software, it is NOT mine.

fate6, I knew it wasn't OK, but the forum limited how much I could type; I had to split it up.

This is untrue. There are lots of homebrews that CWCheat works with, especially homebrew games.
The only homebrew that I know of that won't let me use CWCheat is uo_mvspsp_2.3.1_for_largemem_r5.

Really? cause it seems to fit just fine in one post plus lets not forget the 2 line posts
I have written bigger posts before so next time you want to make something up make sure you aren't talking to someone who has been here for as long as I have

Hmm. Maybe a forum glitch? I don't know...

CWCheat never works with any of my homebrew. Can you give an example of where it may work? The menu doesn't even come up, but it does on my UMDs and dumps.

Why does everyone hate me?

No seriously... is my tutorial bad? I worked on this for like a week before I posted. :cry:

Its not that its bad but more of a case of everyone already knows plus CWCheat is an outdated cheat plugin anyway so anyone with some sense would use TempAR
But that just what I think :/

Wow. I didn't even know TempAR existed. It is way better than CWCheat. Thanks.

Is the cheat data base updated to now or is it old?

I'm having trouble getting this to work. I have these 3 files in PSP/seplugins
GAME.txt
GAME150.txt
POPS.txt

They all have a line like this in them respectively.
ms0:/seplugins/cwcheat/cwcheat.prx
ms0:/seplugins/cwcheat/cwcheat150.prx
ms0:/seplugins/cwcheat/cwcheatpops.prx

I noticed in your tutorial you have a "1" at the end, is that necessary?
Then I have the CWCheat folder in the seplugins folder too. It has the following files...

cheat.db
cheatpops.db
cwcheat.prx
cwcheat150.prx
cwcheatpops.prx

But when I start a game it still won't open the cheat list when i hold down select for a few seconds. I installed 6.60 FW and CFW 660 and it seems to work from what I can tell. There is a CIPL Flasher, Fast Recovery, and the PRO Update in the Game section of my PSP screen and when I use the PRO Update it seems to load and everything.

You did say something about "Make sure the plugin is activated by checking in Plugins Manager (ME/LME), or Recovery (PRO). If it is not enabled (which it should be), enable it." I'm not sure how to enable the plugin with CFW Pro though. I don't see a plugins manager anywhere.
