well been playing ff8 awhile now at disk 2. and im startin to get tired of stoopid monsters on da map. so i tried a cheat for it with pec.. at the battle screens after that show the exp and stuff it will slow down it will take like 40 seconds to get thru it. anyone kno how to use cheats without this slowdown??

Well????
Are you talking about FF8 or FF9???
Anyway, i guess you found by the hard way that using cheats is like crime ... doesn't pay...

Well, if you're referring to FF8 and not FF9, I experienced the same boredom with fighting. The solution is to run away from every battle. Really! It's easy to run away from 80% of the random battles (the other 20% can take a short while to run away). I have never used cheats, so I don't know if there is a solution to your problem (I've never heard of this problem before).

You won't get exp that way, though.


try running the game and the gameshark codes using VGS + PEC. Maybe it'll eliminate the slowdown. I used the PC version thoug, so no cheats for me.


...and no, I'm not gonna use the Griever utility either.

Who needs experience in FF8? Everything is the same level Squall is, so you can run away at leisure. This does not apply to FF9, but FF9's battles don't commonly take 5+ minutes.

You can say that again. :eyes: those Ruby Dragons and Malboros are TUFF without Lion Heart or Selphie's Rapture/Quistis' Degenerator....gonna take you 10 minutes or so just using normal attacks.

A bit off topic... but when I try to hold R2 and L2 and run away FF8 and FF9 slow down to like 2 fps, its like watching a steam powered slide show. I really dunno why this happens
