I'm using 1.43 v9. When I go to Cheat -> Search for new cheats, every Address, Curr. Value and Prev. Value looks like this: ¨é| instead of what they should be looking like. I just tried it in an older version (1.43 v7 I think) and it was working fine, problem is of course there's no Watch function there. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this? Thanks.

Sorry Fabian, I don't know how to help you, but I wanted to post something on the memory watcher subject, but didn't want to start a new thread, so I'll post it here. I was wondering if it would be possible to view the game's memory while the game plays? Right now, when I view the memory window, it pauses the game! I'd like to be able to scroll down the memory window and watch the values change in real time. That way, I could watch to see if, for example, a bosses life changes when I hit him. And this way, I wouldn't have to use the trial and error of "watching" and "clearing" different addresses and clogging up the screen.

If you have SNES9x improvement-v9, there is a "watch" button in this menu that will allow you to do exactly this. The values will appear just above where frame count appears if you have that enabled. If you have improvement-v7, I believe this feature wasn't yet implemented. You can find v9 here.

If you read my post, I already talked about that. :\ I don't like this method... viewing a few addresses at a time...

Ah, I misunderstood your post. You want to leave the memory watch window open and see many variables at once as the game continues to emulate. My bad.

You cannot, but nitsuja can. In my post below, I have a patch for that. cu Fabian
