I tried to search cheat code for YS IV with ME build-in cheat engine but I can't succeed to get any cheat code.
I found a Japanese cheat code site by chance and there is some YS IV cheat code in conjuction with cep cheater and old magic engine or Yame emulator.
"HP999"
80023C4E 03E7
80023C50 03E7

"MP255"
30023C52 00FF
30023C54 00FF

"GOLD99999"
80023C62 869F
30023C64 0001

"LEVEL99"
30023C55 0063

"STR255"
30023C5A 00FF

"DFF255"
30023C5E 00FF

http://cheatcodecemetery.web.fc2.com/aom-g.hp.infoseek.co.jp/code/pce/pce-a-i.html

Although It is Cep cheater code not Magic engine cheat code foramt,but As a trial I compared YS1&2 cheat code with my ME cheat engine search results and I found they has exactly same last 3 digits . so I replaced 30023 with F82 or F83 and input changed value(F82C4E:255) to ME cheat but no success.
I guessed If I look into Magic-engine raw memory domain and find last 3 digits hex address there would be possibility to get ME cheat code for YS IV.
Is there Any raw memory editor for magic engine?
I'm sorry for my weird English and Any reply would be welcome. Very Happy

untick(release) freeze value check box of previous stage cheat code.
when you played on stage5,you must untick freeze value of F822D4 address and enable freeze value of F822D2:1
I just have checked this cheat code work on stage5 and 6.
Very sorry for your inconvenience.

Woo hoo - game cleared after all these years Smile

Thank you for all your help 'bshi02' Wink

-----

I switched off cheats at the end of every stage as this stops the graphic breakup of the cut scenes. Also enabling only the codes required for each stage.

*Note - stage 7 code is weird, it works - though the game can kill you (sort of) but you dont lose powerups or lives it just switches the music off.

A note regarding the YS 4 codes. As there are no codes for maximum EXP points, you still have to spend time killing as many sub creatures on your journey otherwise you'll get to a boss like Gladis and not be able to scratch him.

For those who have already cleared this, equip the silver bracelet for quick EXP points otherwise you'll need to grind a bit to build your exp.

----

On a lighter note, I'm enjoying YS IV even more now thanks to these wonderful codes as I was losing track of the story before (1st time around) because so much time was wasted on the EXP/HP building Rolling Eyes

------

Anyways full props goto to 'bshi02' for bringing to this forum - quality stuff.

I apologize for not verifying any abnormal on R-type cheat.
I found this cheat from Ootake cheat bulletin board and Japanese writer say It can go through till Ending with this cheat.so I make a mistake there is no problem..


I look into this address area with Cheat engine.(06dc62d4 is able to translate to F822D4 in magic engine address.but cheat engine address is not always same.it varied from PC to PC) and As it was seen above ,in stage7 and 8, D1 row(06dc62d1) is just about to change and turn red color.(When Player's airpline stop to blink=vanished invincibility state, 06dc62d1 address value changed to 00)
so I tested to change F822D1:1 with Freeze in stage 7,8 and it works without any abnormal in my test.I suggest to use only Freezed F822D1:1 instead of F822D2:0 and F822D0:1 in last 7,8 stage 

and for YS4 I have contented to translate cep cheater code to magic engine and think EXP cheat is useless,because there is level cheat which can control Adol's level(689C55:any decimal value from 1 to 255)
I'm sorry it is my mistake and I just have found EXP address with cheat engine very easily.(Following LitCandle's Guide, The very difficult part in translation of unknown Magic-engine Address is to found out first 3 digits.If Magic-engine's first digits is discovered.It usually only to replace last 3 digit with cheat engine's results)

Additional Ys IV CHEAT


<EXP 50000>
689C56:80
689C57:195

<EXP 99999>

689C56:159
689C57:134
689C58:01


(First I tried to change Next EXP value to 1. but It can't succeed because Next EXP totally subject to Total EXP.)
You can change any value other than 50000 or 99999

you can use build-in windows calculator.

Set WC to scientific mode and switch to dec , then Input any EXP number you want.
Switch from dec to hex,then you will get hex number(for e.g 50000 decimal number will be calculated to C350 hex),incase 5digit Just add 0 to first number(99999 dec is 1869F hex, but Add 0 to foremost thus it will be 01869F hex)
Input first two hex number and switch it to dec, then do same thing on next two hex.[C3(hex)->195, 50(hex)->80],[01(hex)->01, 86(hex)->134, 9F(hex)->159]
Write first dec value to XXX position 689C57:XXX ,next dec to 689C56, (incase 5digit, first dec to 689C58, last dec to 689C56) To make long story short, reverse the order.(689C56:80 689C57:195) (689C56:159 689C57:134 689C58:01)


I'm sorry for my weird and very limited English which may cause misunderstand and I hope It would be helpful for your PC-Engine game play. Razz

Wow thanks! Surprised I will try these tonight and provide you feedback hopefully by tomorrow. Also thanks for explaining the breakdown of these cheatcodes.

Kind Regards,
Anil

PS have you ever tried the 'Battle Ace' patch for no-death mode, I unfortunately could not find success with the IPS patch and was wondering if you may have a magic-engine code which provides an 'invincible' mode.

This the strangest thing, all codes work perfectly though there is one major problem - you can not kill the final boss - in Arem's 1st form, you can not put a scratch on him. (I had the following equipped - all El Doran kit and mask of the moon equipped plus power ring and shield magic)

I've tried switching all codes off but nothing, I noticed the EXP went down to 15000 mark, which suggest there must an internal counter which is not suppresed by the cheat codes and therefore your character is not actually strong enough to kill the final boss.

It's odd this did not effect the other boss fights, just the final boss Sad

* Luckliy I've already cleared this game the old fashioned way and was therefore able to watch the ending Cool

I think It is necessary to test battle with final boss from your save point.
Would you upload "backup.dat"( magic-engine internal backup ram) in your magic engine root folder or whole "CD_xxxxxxxx.mex"(magic-engine force save state) in states folder on free filehosting website(megaupload or rapidshare)?
I really sorry for not confirmming my cheat.I'm a real moron. d'oh! I don't even think this cheat won't work on final boss.It is real burdensome work to play any games untill Ending for me...
I will go through 'Battle Ace' shortly after.
I really sorry for your continuous inconvenience,and I'll strive more hard to complete this cheat.
