Need Help Writing program thats probably quite simple!

[Clarkie]

Hi there,

I have been working for the past 3 months at Moxconsole.net and Clarkie's-Cave forums creating/editing save game files for people using a program called CWCheats for the PSP. I have edited just over 100 files each taking a min of 5 minutes. Thats around 20 hours min of helping people! A few weeks ago I came across a simple looking program written by SprazeR which put all the codes into a file quickly but only contained four codes. Unfortunately the problem with C++ is that it is not decompilable meaning I cannot obtain the code of the program. To make my life of save making much easier I want to write a program based off the program by SprazeR but with many more codes. The first thing I need is a code to give the same results as his program. Unfortunately I am not clever enough to write this code because I have only been learning C++ for about 3 hours!

If you are going to help me then you can leave out:
It currently creates two files: CHEAT.DB & README.txt. I do not need the readme file.

You also do not need to copy the codes just tell me where to write them.

I do not need the JPN section only EU and US.

The text doesn't need to be identical. Just understandable.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks,
Clarkie

This is what I came up with but it doesn't work and needs alot of improvments.

#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
 
using namespace std;
 
int main()
{
    char choice;
    for (;;){
     do {
    cout<<"Welcome to the: \nMonster Hunter Freedom Unite CWCheats Database Generator.\n";
    cout<<"Please choose your region next.\n"; 
    cout<<"1 - European\n";
    cout<<"2 - United States\n";
    cin>> choice;
    } while ( choice < '1' || choice > '2' && choice != 'q');
    if (choice == 'q') break;
    switch (choice) {
           case '1':
                cout<<"Would you like to change name? (Y or N?)\n";
                cin>>choice;
                } while ( choice < 'Y' || choice > 'N' && choice != 'q');
                 if (choice == 'q') break;
                 switch (choice) {
                cout<<"Would you like to change gender?\n";
                cin>>choice;
                } while ( choice < 'Y' || choice > 'N' && choice != 'q');
                 if (choice == 'q') break;
                 switch (choice) {
                cout<<"\n FAIL \n";
                cout<<"\n";
                break;
           case '2':
                cout<<"Would you like to change name? (Y or N?)\n";
                cin>>choice;
                } while ( choice < 'Y' || choice > 'N' && choice != 'q');
                 if (choice == 'q') break;
                 switch (choice) {
                cout<<"Would you like to change gender?\n";
                cin>>choice;
                } while ( choice < 'Y' || choice > 'N' && choice != 'q');
                 if (choice == 'q') break;
                 switch (choice) {
                cout<<"\n FAIL \n";
                cout<<"\n";
                break;
           default:
                    cout<<"That is not an option\n";
                    cout<<"You will now be returned to the begining of the program.\n\n";
                }
 
}
return 0;


}

PS: I can't find an edit button for the first post so had to make this a reply.

Any helpers?

I downloaded the file and I looked at the thread. Not being familiar with Monster Hunter, I have no idea what all this refers to. The rar file has an executable file and a seemingly jibberish text file. No one is going to run an executable from an unknown author because it could do all sorts of nasty stuff. Might not be a problem if you have a virtual machine or whatever, but I don't.

So you'll probably have to explain what needs to be done in words, then we can look at your code and see what the problem is.

How to use

Run the program on your PC and just follow the program step by step. Then finally, it will create cheat.db for you to use it with your cwcheat plugin.

Don't forget to back up your Save game and cheat.db just in case.

Requirement
- you need to have cwcheat plugin installed
- Monster Hunter Freedom Unite (US) , (EU) or MHP2G

I'm not a gamer, but if it has anything to do with creating "bots" where you cheat at online gaming or something, people tend not to help with that. It doesn't sound like that's what this is, though you may want to affirm that. What's the "cwcheat" plug-in.

Ok, thanks for the help/comment. The author of the program has agreed to send me the files so there is no need for such a big request. I will keep this topic open in case I require any help with making it from here on.

CWCheats is a cheat program for the PSP. I do not use it for cheats as what it enables you to do is change the code of the game. This enables you to:

Change name's
Change apperances
Change voice
etc

Thanks for the help/ comment,
