Cheat Format

+ +

Below is a short description of the FB Alpha cheat file format. Cheat files must be placed in the cheats support file folder, and named according to the short name/name of the zip file containing the ROMs, with the extension being either .INI (e.g. 1941.zip becomes 1941.ini). FBA will present a warning and some additional info whenever it encounters an error in a cheat file, and will stop processing the file at that point.
