# Using Cheats with Eden
Use this guide when you want to add cheats into a game to alter gameplay for use with the Eden emulator.
**Click [Here](https://evilperson1337.notion.site/Using-Cheats-with-Eden-2b057c2edaf6818fab66c276e2304bb4) for a version of this guide with images & visual elements.**

### Pre-Requisites
- Eden Emulator fully set up and configured on your Android device.
- The cheat(s) you want to apply.
- The **Build ID** of the game.
<aside>
***TIP***: The easiest way I have found to find the Build ID is by Right-Clicking the game **IN RYUJINX ON PC** and hitting **Manage Cheats**. Your Build ID will be displayed at the top.
Another option would be to launch the game in Eden and close it - then go into the log and look for a line like this - the first 16 characters if your Build ID. Make sure that it is the MAIN line.

## Steps
### Configuring a Cheat
1. Create a directory somewhere accessible on your phone with the name of the cheat. The name you choose only affects how it is displayed in Eden.
2. Create a directory inside of this folder called **cheats.**
3. Create a new text file and copy the Hex Code of the cheat into it, optionally with the cheat name at the beginning like this example. Here this code will set the timer to 999 in *New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe.*
```bash
[Time = 999]
58000000 00C88A70
78001000 00000090
64000000 00000000 003E6F00
```
4. Save the file as a **txt** file with the Build ID of the game. For my example, my Build ID is **AEE6DCCC06D9C05B** so my file would be `AEE6DCCC06D9C05B.txt`.
5. Open Eden and press and hold the game you want to apply the cheat to.
6. Scroll down on the properties until you see **Add-ons**, select this option.
7. Select + **Install** then select **Mods and cheats** and **OK** on the window that appears.
8. A file explorer will now appear. Navigate to the directory created in step 1 and select the folder.
<aside>
***INFO***: Make sure you select the correct directory or it will not work, the screen should show the **cheats** sub-directory.
</aside>
2. You should now see the cheat appear in the **Add-ons** screen.
3. Launch the game and confirm that the cheat is applied.

### Multiple Cheats
In order to install multiple cheats, you must repeat the steps above with the new cheat, creating a new directory with the name of the cheat and cheats directory. You **cannot** install multiple cheats with a single file.
Community Member [Ninjistix](https://github.com/Ninjistix) created a utility (Windows or anything that can run Python) that can take a file with multiple cheats and create the files/structure for you with a provided Build ID. To download and run it, see the [GitHub Project](https://github.com/Ninjistix/nxCheat_Splitter) page.
**Example cheat TXT file with multiple cheats. It must be in this format to work:**
```
[Super Mario Bros. Wonder - Various] <- Optional
[♯ 1. Always Star Power]
040E0000 00880580 52800035
[♯ 2. Star Power + Bubble Mode (Invincible)]
040E0000 00880580 52800075
[♯ 3. Can Fast Travel to Any Course and World]
040E0000 00935E10 52800036
040E0000 0048A528 52800028
040E0000 005D9F58 52800028
[♯ 4. Got All Top of Flag Poles]
040E0000 0048A818 52800028
```

### Enabling/Disabling Cheats
Cheats are enabled by default, but can be disabled so they dont affect gameplay fairly easily using the game properties.
1. Open Eden and press and hold the game you want to apply the cheat to.
2. Scroll down on the properties until you see **Add-ons**, select this option.
3. *Select/Deselect* the name of the cheat you wish to enable/disable.
4. Click **OK** to close the window.
5. Launch the game to confirm the cheat is/is not active.
