Search for "Joypad Test Cartridge (U).nes" for one that displays little bargraph meters showing the turbo rate of A and B. I bet this could be easily modified to skip the main menu so it goes directly to the turbo rate screen. Wow! That rom is cool! I could barely get two lines on the met...

I found this online about Track and Field: Full Power Cheat: This one if rather obvious. Play the game using a turbo controller and you'll be have no problem raising speed/power. Just don't think you're gonna fool your friends because "USING CHEAT" will appear above your power meter. Read ...

Happy 600th post tepples! Sorry, I don't know how you'd do such a thing. I'm not too sure about what your doing, so, yeah. I think if I read that one topic a little while back that you started about this, I'd understand. No problem sir, I think it boils down to creating a rom to show how fast the A...

What language do I need to know how to build my cheater check rom? I have downloaded nesasm and i compiled a source file and it worked.

I am going to try to tackle this cheating problem on the rom side of things cause I think making an emulator to do all of this would be too hard.

So, i think the simple rom that only detects button presses will do to finish the situation.

Anyone want to take on this project?

FCE Ultra supports movies, save states, and online play (though it requires an additional 'server' program). What else do you need? The 'server' problem is the main issue. Also, there was a version of FCE that supported direct connect, but it often desynched during gameplay. Sadly, nesticle is the ...

double post sorry

The joypad data seemed to only be added for every frame that the joypads were strobed, so it wouldn't get added during pauses where the game wasn't polling them. A tool could easily be written that scans the joypad data and reports the minimum number of polls between presses of each button, but it ...

Can't you discourage cheating through other means, i.e. make it less fun than it's worth? Adding this kind of screening of movies (especially if it's random and unannounced) might make cheating more fun since it adds to the challenge. Any ideas on how to do that? It doesn't have to be random testin...

I thought about writing a php script to look at the movie file and see if someone is turboing, but I don't know what snippet of code to look for.

We use netsicle cause it supports movies, save states and online play. All we would need is a rom that just shows the button presses per second. It doesn't need to have anything to do with the tecmo rom. What my plan is to do is this: random steroid "turbo" testing. Take a movie, play it w...

It is not a major priority, but the sooner the better. We found a cheater by loading a nesticle movie from one rom to a different rom. It desynched and started doing weird things (which was expected). We were just waiting for it to show rapid a button taps (which it did eventually). So we had to fir...

Hello All, I run an online Tecmo league and there is one problem that is difficult to detect. TURBO. I was wondering if there were any rom programmers out there who could design a rom who detected how fast the buttons were being pressed. The rom should just have player 1 and player 2 and the speed a...
