		Hello,i need some help with using cheat codes on saturn games.I can't just copy the gameshark code,and when i'm trying to use one,the following options come up Press R-to replace ram/write|(high level) Address [$00000000] Byte length(1-8) Big endian? Y/N (If byte length is above 1) Value [000] Needless to say,i have absolutely no idea what to do.Can someone help me untangle this mess? Here's an example of a code i found in gamehacking for Shining the holy ark 160BEED6 ???? (Replace ???? with 4100 -double experience or 4108 -x4 exp) 160BEEDA 8BFF 160BEEDC 321C What am i supposed to write in order to make it functional?

		I suppose these are Action replay codes. For example to input the 1st code : Type [R] : press enter, it's always replace for those cheat codes Address [$00000000] : $160BEED6 (the $ at the start matters) Byte length(1-8) [1] : 2 (that's 2 for an address starting with 0 or 1, but it would be 1 for an address starting with 3) Big endian? [Y] : press enter, it's always big endian values on Saturn Value [000] : 4100h (the h at the end matters) Rinse and repeat for the other codes.

		If the cheats aren't working, double-check that the codes match the correct region of your game. Mednafen can be picky about formatting, so using the exact format it expects is key. Also, if you're entering codes manually, make sure they’re enabled properly in the config file. Some people run into similar issues with apex cheats... when not using the correct version for their game or platform.
