Agreus Maze - Cheat Engine

The Agreus Maze stealth-puzzle is one of the more controversial parts of the game. Some people love it, a lot others hate it. If your dislike is strong enough to consider cheating, this is for you.

What do i need?

CheatEngine. It's a program that allows to search or values in the memory of a process and change or even freeze it. Thats what we are going to do.

Get CheatEngine here and maybe watch a tutorial on youtube to get a feeling for it.

How to cheat for the Agreus Maze

The goal is to freeze the energy values of Draculas "Mist"-Form, so it can be used infinitely.

• Start the game, set it to window mode so you can better switch between programs
  
• StartCheat Engine and attach it to the castlevania process
  
• Load the savegame to the scene where you want to apply the cheat, so practically the start of the agreus maze level. Memory values can change between sessions, so if you reset the game by loading a checkpoint, you may/must start again.
  
• Set the value type in cheatEngine to "float", we are searching for a floating point values between 100 and 0, but searching for exact values does not work because its a floating point value and because the graphical presentation of mists energy level does not really tell its exact scalar value, so we are doing it slightly different.
  
• (A1) When the mist energy is full, search with a scan type "Bigger than..." and a value of 99.
  
• (A2) Now switch in game and use the mist until your at half the energy.
  
• (A3) In CheatEngine, search with a scan type "Smaller than..." and a value of 99.
  
• You will see that a lot of entries in the address list keep changing its values when the game is paused. Our desired value is not one of them, so set the scan type to "unchanged value" and eliminate them from the list.
  
• You may need to repeat Step A1 to A3 more times. If it goes well, The entries on the left of the cheat engine window will soon show one entry that corresponds to the mist energy value. Double Click it to add it to the list of adresses at the bottom.
  
• The little cube in the most left column freezes the value. Thats infinite energy.

Hope it works for you.

I think the only controversial thing here is you claiming to have actually played the game.

Tbh i just whipped noclip for these stealth parts in late game because it made no sense when dracula is almost at peak of his power again and has to sneak around when you can stomp heavily armored battle mech.
