activate (and flash) when you select any cheats for a game. This is normal. New

PLEASE NOTE
Some games may behave in an unusual manner when cheat codes are activated.
This is due to the cheat code changing values in the games memory, and causes it
to do things that it does not normally do. Sometimes if two or more codes are
selected together they may cause conflict in the game. There is no way to avoid
this. If you experience problems during gameplay then reboot GameShark®2
Version 4 and try playing again with fewer codes selected. Also try using different
combinations of codes or just one code at a time.
Use of Splinter Cell “Enemies Cannot Move” Cheat
The “Enemies Cannot Move” Cheat is should not be used on level 3 of Splinter
Cell. This is because one of the enemies has to move in order for you to complete
the level. It may cause the game to crash if the above event occurs.

wish to save the changes when you return to the main menu.

compressed game save into a game – the game will not recognize any zipped file.

The process for un-zipping a file is exactly the same as "Zipping a File" as detailed
above.

9) Frequently Asked Questions – GameShark Cheats
Q: At a certain point in my game when I have cheats activated, the game acts
weird/freezes. Why is this?
A: When activated, some cheat codes make the game you are playing do things
different to when it is being played without codes. For example, if you activate a
“Make enemies not move” cheat, you may get to a point in the game where you
need the enemies to move, in order for you to complete the game. This may cause
the game to behave strangely.
Related Issues with Splinter Cell Cheats
The “Enemies Cannot Move” Cheat is should not be used on level 3 of Splinter
Cell. This is because one of the enemies has to move in order for you to complete
the level. It may cause the game to crash if the above event occurs.
Q: Why does my game not load/crash?
A: You may have too many codes activated - cut down on the amount you are try-
ing to use.
Q: Will these codes cause my PlayStation®2 to malfunction or stop working?
A: Absolutely not. GameShark®2 Version 4 does not affect the PlayStation®2 itself;
it merely changes addresses and values in a game's memory while the game is
running. If a code causes an undesirable effect in a game, simply press the reset
button and make sure the codes were entered properly.
Q: Is GameShark®2 Version 4 compatible with PlayStation/PSone memory
cards?
A: No. Only PlayStation®2 compatible memory cards are powerful enough to be

10) Frequently Asked Questions – GameShark Memory Manager / Game
Saves
Q: I tried zipping a Game save but it said “This type of file unsupported”. I
also tried to copy it to another memory card but it came up with the same
message. Why?
A: Unfortunately, some game save data cannot be zipped or copied. This is down
to the individual game and some game save data will not be compatible with the
GameShark Memory Manager.
Q: My game won’t load my zipped game saves (aqua colour). Why?
A: No game can load zipped game save files. The game saves must be un-zipped
using the GameShark Memory Manager before they are used with a game. This is
so that the game can recognize it.
Q: Can I download a save from the CD onto my memory card, if I already
have a save for that game on the memory card?
A: Some games will not allow for multiple game saves of the same game to be
stored on a single memory card, so you may have to store multiple saves for cer-
tain games on separate memory cards. Another way of storing more than 1 save
per game on your memory card is to zip your existing saves for your particular
game, then download your new save. This will allow you to have multiple saves for
the same game on your memory card.
Q: Why won’t the GameShark Memory Manager recognize my memory card?
A: The GameShark Memory Manager can only be used with officially licensed
Sony PlayStation®2 8MB memory cards. It will not work with any other memory card.
Q: I used the Game Saves section to download lots of Game Saves to my
PlayStation®2 memory card, but now it says “Not enough free space on PS2
memory card”. What does this mean?
A: This means your PlayStation®2 memory card has no free save space. Use
GameShark Memory Manager to delete or zip some of your saves to free up some
space. You can see how full your memory card is by looking at the memory bar
underneath the Memory Manager side of the screen. Maximum capacity is 8000k.
Q: If I have an existing Game Save, can I unlock cheats for that existing
Game Save, or do I have to start a new game to unlock the cheats?
A: If you have an existing Game Save, you can unlock cheats within your existing
Game Save. If you choose to start from the beginning, you can unlock cheats for a
new game as well.
