When you leave the cheat screen, your new codes will be stored in X-Plorer’s memory (You must enter “Start Game” to ensure that new codes and alterations are safely stored in X-Plorer’s memory).
(Turning the power off, right after entering new codes, will delete the new codes and other alterations you may have performed). You can delete the cheats at a later date if required.

You can activate new cheats as described in “Selecting Cheat Codes”.

You do not need to enter the game name again if you add another cheat at a later date. Simply highlight the game name again and view the current cheats for that game and simply add a new code description and code within that game-name cheats.

IMPORTANT: Starting with Special Games: Some games requires the X-Plorer and console to be started differently than normal. In the past, other cheat Cartridges have required you to send your cheat cartridge back to the manufacturer to be updated – X-Plorer 64 has a unique Key-code system which allows access to any existing and forthcoming games for entering your cheat codes.

If, after following the above instructions “Connecting your X-Plorer 64” you are faced with a blank screen, you will probably need to change the Boot Mode on your X-Plorer 64.

Code Constructor: The Code Constructor is the most powerful part of X-Plorer 64. No longer do you have to wait for new codes to be created – You can make own. Please note that you MUST have the 4 Meg console memory expansion (available form Blaze, Nintendo And other sources) fitted before you can use the Code Constructor (In-Game Trainer from the XP-64’s Main Menu). Creating new codes may sound complex and will certainly look a little daunting at first. However, with patience and practice you’ll realise that it’s great fun and “easy” to do. First of all, to enable the In-Game Trainer, simply press R button on your Controller on the main X-Plorer screen, a message will be displayed informing you that the trainer now is enabled.

N.B many codes on the X-Plorer 64 will not be working when the In-Game Trainer is disabled, also a great deal of codes will not be working if the 4 Megabit console memory expansion (N64 Expansion-Pak) is not fitted in your N64

Once the game is in progress the in game cheat menu can be activated by pressing “L + Start + Z buttons”, this will freeze
The game action (pressing Start button will continue the game)

To find cheats is “straightforward”. X-Plorer uses the principle that somewhere in memory is a value that corresponds to your Lives, energy etc. this value usually goes down. All you have to do is tell X-Plorer what is happening to the value you wish to Find ( for example have lost a life) and X-Plorer will find the cheat for you. We recommend that you first search for a value that already exists in X-Plorer to give you a feel for using the Code Constructor. Infinite Lives is always easier to find than Energy or Level Select, so it’s a good idea to try familiar, lives based game as your first try.

01. With your X-Plorer 64 in place, load the game and start playing – let’s say you’ve got 5 lives.
02. Activate the In-game Menu (“L + Start + Z”)
03. Now select the “Code Finder” option.
04. As we know the value we are looking for (i.e. “5” lives) then we should select the “Search for a known Value” option.
05. Enter “5” on the “Enter new Value to search” screen and press button ‘A’. X-Plorer 64 will start searching.
06. When finished – you will see a number of possible codes on a new screen – this is almost to high at this stage.
07. Now resume the game and lose a life.
08. Re-enter the Code Constructor and repeat the above, changing the known value to 4 lives. This will check through the
Existing possibilities and see which has now changed to 4.
09. Continue this procedure until the number of possibilities is reduced to a number that can be easily tested – don’t worry if you lose all your lives, you can start with 5 lives again and just continue searching back through 5, 4, 3 lives etc.
10. Selecting “View Results” will display the codes found. Try selecting each in turn and resuming the game – each time
Trying to lose a life. If your character “dies” but your lives stay at your current level,
Congratulations, You’ve found the correct code !!

The above is just one example of a code that can be found. Here is another, which is more suitable for finding an Energy Bar. If you have already tried Infinite Lives Cheat and have been successful , then maybe you want to try and find something a Little trickier. The “Known Value” Trainer is always the easiest to use and is initially the best option for finding this type of cheat.

Lives are a specific value (i.e. 5 lives) but Energy may simply be a coloured bar on-screen that has no number – how do you
Search for this value? There is no value you can try. This is where the alternative Trainer types become invaluable – because You can search for higher, lower or different values than your original search. If you start with Full Energy and perform your search, you would then have to lose some energy and use the “Lower” Value search. Fighting games are generally good for this type of code.

With your X-Plorer 64 in place, load the game and start playing.
1. With your energy bar at maximum, Activate the In-game Trainer (“L + Start + Z”)
2. After selecting the Code Finder option, select “Start Unknown Search”. The X-Plorer will look through the system memory.
All you need to do is next time you freeze the game play is remember Whether is more, less or the same.
3. Resume the game and lose some energy.
4. Now re-enter the Code Constructor. Select the Code Finder and select “Less Than”. You obviously have less energy than
the original search.
5. Resume the game and lose even more energy. Again re-freeze and again select the “Less Than” Value search (as in point 4) Continue this procedure until you lose your life. Don’t worry – you don’t have to restart the trainer! When you restart the game, Freeze the game play as normal, but this time select the “Greater Than” option. On this occasion your energy is greater than last search. (The next search will again be a “Less Than” search.)
6. Continue this procedure. It will take longer than a lives search, but is more thorough. If you do make a mistake at any time, you must restart the trainer, as it will not find the cheat that you are looking for.
7. Once the possibilities at the bottom of the screen are a low enough value you may try some of them in the same way as the first example. Once you have found the correct value you may store it in the X-Plorer for later use.

N.B Once you have found the codes, you will have to write them down so you can enter them into the X-Plorer at a later date. (See adding new cheats, section)

You can also enter new codes without re-setting the X-Plorer 64 or remove any old codes you may have running from previous training sessions.
