Here's a short guide on how to use Checkpoint cheats. Credits to kriegxd on Discord for images and base text.

Sharkive used to be used for cheats. As of the time of writing, Checkpoint can now be used for cheats too, and Sharkive has been deprecated, so Checkpoint should be used. If you want to use NTR Plugins for cheats, you should check out this guide written by yours truly.

Troubleshooting

Q: Checkpoint says "No available cheat codes for this title!"
A: You'll need to add them manually. Consider this guide.

Q: My cheats don't work/crash!
A: Checkpoint's cheat database is community run, and some cheats may not function correctly. There's not much you can do about it.

A: Make sure you have a save for the game. If you're sure you do, hold B to refresh title list and the game should appear.

Q: The cheats button does not show up!
