Hack description

I've made this hack to be able to select any item in the game.
You do so by pressing and holding select before you select your inventory.
By doing this, you will access an alternate inventory. Every time you repeat the process you will access the next page.
If you want to keep the current page, do the same, but press and hold start.
To have the desired item in the real inventory, just select it with the A button.
Then enter the inventory normally and you will have that item.

Remember to enter your inventory normally before you equip the items, or you will get dummy items on the equip menu. The same goes if you want to sell an item.
Another point to note is that you must have at least one empty slot on your inventory before you select an item on the alternate inventory, or the game will freeze.
You can also use any item on the alternate inventory, for example medical herbs or any other usable item.

I've also hacked the game so you have max stats for all your characters, included the extras, all the extras have the Metal Babble equip set, you can walk through most things inside dungeons and towns, and you have max and infinite gold and
casino coins.

Thanks to:

Ugetab: He made the walk through walls code.

gedowsky: He made some extras stats and equipment codes.

Paulygon: He made some extras stats and equipment codes, and the always terrific blow code.

History:

3.0:

Corrected a bug with the first page of items that made the digits go up by one.

Changed all extras strength to 255.

Added Stilleto Earrings effect to any weapon (unarmed included). You will attack twice a group of monsters.

Added Paulygon always inflict a terrific blow code.

2.1:

Corrected a bug where alternate inventory shows up randomly.

2.0:

Now you can equip any item on any character. Just select the equipped item on the alternate inventory and that character will have it equipped.

The Stilleto Earrings, now make 150 damage. Very Useful, because they always connect 2 hits. This isn't really a new addition, its just I forgot to list it here last time :P.

Reviews

Hacker's Toolbox	ZeroKewl	2024-02-05	Version 3.0
I enjoy playing this game "out of sequence" and there are chances that essential quest items can get lost or become permanently inaccessible because of my unorthadox way of playing this game. If you are like me, you like to test things to see what happens. With this mod, you can can be sure that the game never gets too far out of bounds that you can't bring yourself back by recalling essential items that advance the storeline or perhaps play randomly all over the world map calling up items as you need them in your own sequential order. This romhack does both of these. I recommend this especially for those who wish to have a safegard against accidentally placing an essential quest item out-of-reach because of unorthadox gameplay or "hacking" because with this mod, you can get those items back again. Great romhack. Possibly one of the best for NES ever.

Great idea	tcaudilllg	2008-12-12	-
I like this. This patch makes DW IV more accessible without taking away the challenge completely. With access to pretty much any item in the game, I can take on stronger monsters earlier and level faster. Bottom line was, the grind factor in this game precluded me from giving it enough attention to finish it (DQ III's 60+ battles-per-level was the last straw for me), but now I just may give it another shot.
