Tutorial aka story mode as well as battle mode is fully playable including savedata import so can battle against other player "creations" just fine.

As far as I can tell the only problem(aside from the useless network stuff) is one graphic glitch in some menus(possibly just another VFPU bug), but I made a cwc workaround to correct it:

Official site hosting OKE's was closed earlier this year, but backup was made linked here with another site that also is used for that purpose.
If someone plans to use the unofficial OKE site, download files with original filenames or rename all lowercase to uppercase since apparently lowercase doesn't work on PSP and PPSSPP emulates that from some time.
Also related to this made another hack:

Code:

_C0 Allow Editing private OKE's
_L 0xE0030054 0x0013A7AC
_L 0x2013A7AC 0x34020001
_L 0x201E6AD4 0x1000000A
_L 0x201EA328 0x1000000A
_C0 Allow Editing private OKE's [Disable]
_L 0x2013A7AC 0x8C820054
_L 0x201E6AD4 0x1456000A
_L 0x201EA328 0x1452000A

This code will allow 2 things - checking and editing private OKE's of other people's as well as converting it to public OKE's when copied to new slot on OKE select screen. In other words you can download any tournament match or single OKE's data and grab all the details you want from it. Edit: Improved this one a bit to allow copying OKE's without having to manually change private to public now, as a minor side effect this will make all OKE's appear public while the cheat is on.


For those that don't know what this game even is: It's a game about creating algorithms for autonomous robots and watching them kill each other, Visual Novel part is just a lenghty tutorial with some poor story for flavor. Also while algorithms can include manual steering, it's really not a game for fans of action nor even tactics. Should probably add here that it has pretty complex(for a psp game) replay editor and also allows exporting replays to avi, all of which works fine, but for that last part due to losing resolution, there are better options;p.
