Note: This tool has been released just for testing purpose, please use the stand-alone homebrew extension.

Features

• Realtime cheats with cheats database support.
• Realtime memory scanner with (partial) heap scanner and main thread stack scanner.
• Decrypted savedata exporter/importer with multiple saveslots.
• Improved screenshot feature (no compression) in any game and any situation.
• FTP Server during gaming phase.
• Possibility to change console clockage with CPU, GPU, BUS, GPU Crossbar support.
• Possibility to disable Auto Suspend feature while in game.
• Possibility to stream PSVITA screen to PC while gaming.

Installation

Place plugins and data folder in ux0:

Open ux0:/plugins/game.txt file and add this line to the file

ux0:/plugins/rinCheat.suprx 1

To open rinCheat menu just press Select+Start during your game session.

User guide

MMC or RAM mode

Differences between MMC and RAM mode:

• Screenshots taking - Faster in RAM mode.
• Cheats List support - Limited in MMC mode (due to low available memory).

CPU Clockage & AutoSuspend

Navigate to Game Hacks menu and then enable such features.

Screenshot feature

In Game Hacks menu, enable Screenshot feature then close rinCheat.

During your game sessions you'll be able to take screenshots by pressing L+R+START.

Screenshots will be saved in ux0:/data/rinCheat/screenshots.

Value searcher/injector

Navigate to Game Cheats > Search Value. In this screen you'll be able to search an arbitrary value of 1,2,4,8 bytes on stack or heap.

First of all set the value you want to search and its size, then press one of the two Start Absolute Search options, you'll be prompted with how many matches has been found.

Now you can directly inject a new value by pressing Inject value or you can unpause the game and, later, search between the matches how many changed their values by using Start Relative Search feature.

You can also use the Save offsets function to save matched offsets on ux0:/data/rinCheat/db/TITLEID_offsets.txt. These offsets can be extremely useful to actually write automated cheats to insert to rinCheat database.

Cheats List

When you find a good offset with the value searcher you can save the offset to actually write a cheat that will appear in the Cheats List.

To do so, after you saved the offsets, you have to create a file in ux0:/data/rinCheat/db named as TITLEID.txt.

Here you can put how many cheats you want that will appear in the Cheats List.

Syntax for the file is:

#CHEAT NAME
@offset @value @size

Example:

#999 Max Health
@0xB1A4A231 @0x3E7 @4

A list of the games that are currently included in the database can be found here (Realtime tab).

Decrypted savedata dumper/restorer

Such features are available on Manage Savedatas menu.

Dumper will save the savedata to ux0:/data/rinCheat/TITLEID/SLOTX where X is the currently selected Slot.

Edit your savedata as you wish and then you can re-inject it back by using the related feature.

FTP Server

FTP Server is available on Net Module menu. Just enable it and connect to the IP showed in the menu.

If you can't see any folder when connected just manually input the folder to show (ex: ux0:/).

Screen Stream

Screen Stream feature is available on Net Module menu. You can select the video quality of the stream (Lower = Best Framerate, Higher = Best Video Quality) and then you can start the stream by enabling the related feature.

Then you only have to start the PC application and insert the IP shown on PSVITA to connect.

A compatibility list can be found here.

Note: To change stream quality when you are already streaming, you must first disable stream, then change video quality of the stream and then re-enable the stream.
