*Cheat Status:
I made this cheat a long time ago but I didn't considered it stable enough to be publicly posted, then the user vsub_ contacted me and gave me the following details about it (I hope he doesn't mind that I'm paraphrasing his PM):
- In menus the game timer and everything in the menus(effects and the characters)are moving at twice the normal speed.
- And there is something else too...the sp and maybe the extra gauges are recovered twice as fast.
I fixed the game timer speed but the other issues are still present. I'll see if I can fix them later.

*Extra details: I've tried this game before but it had problems with the AI of NPCs at 60 FPS with my previous attempt so I didn't posted it. I solved this issue and so far it works good now.


Ratatouille [USA/EUR-SPA], ULUS10247.ini / ULES00737.ini and maybe more (read extra details below)

Code:

_S ULUS10247/ULES00737
_G Ratatouille [USA/EUR-SPA]
_C0 60 FPS
_L 0x2001706C 0x3C063C88
_L 0x20017074 0x34C6AB86
_C0 30 FPS [Default]
_L 0x2001706C 0x3C063D08
_L 0x20017074 0x34C6AB86

*Cheat Status: No issues.
*Extra details:
- The values were calculated like this: 1/59.94=0.01668335125=0x3C88AB86 , and 1/29.97=0.0333667025=0x3D08AB86 .
- I have tested this cheat with the USA (ULUS-10247) and EUR-SPA (ULES-00737) releases and it worked for both because they have very similar BIN files (but they are not exactly the same). If other releases/regions use similar enough BIN files aswell then this same cheat should work with all of them.

@soba_White:
Rengoku 2 goes double speed and I had no luck with a speed modifier.
I'm not sure what problem you had with cheat engine and the easy method, but I can tell you that GURUMIN runs at double speed and I have not found a working speed modifier for it.

@Slightly Apathetic Mio: I have tried some of those failed-to-unlock games too and no luck with speed modifiers for me neither, but thanks for the working cheats.

@JJXB88: You can follow LunaMoo's tutorial from HERE to trace the address from where a function/syscall is being called. But if you are interested in Phantasy Star Portable 2, user chaoslordd posted a working 60 FPS cheat HERE. I have not tested it myself but according to that user "it works as intended".

@solitarius: That's a nice wave of 60FPS cheats from you , you even had success with of the some games that I have already tried and failed; let me give some feedback for the games that I have tested:
- The 3rd Birthday: I have found several speed modifiers, but sadly the one you mention is not very good, it seems to be the movement speed only.
- Ape Escape On The Loose: It still needs speeds adjustments, but I could not even make it run at 60 FPS, so this is progress.
- Tenchu Shadow Assassins: It works decently for normal ingame, but there are some menu/map elements running at double speed yet and cutscenes are kind of weird.
- Crisis Core FF7: This one runs so good in normal gameplay, what a nice surprise. The cutscenes are still running at the "fake" 60 FPS we already know. I tried to fix it but I ran out of ideas, some conditional assembly code should be enough until someone figure it out (cap the game at 30FPS only for cutscenes). I'll see what I can do at some point.


Seeing how many cheats have been posted that are not included in the now very outdated 60FPS master list, I will reorganize that post with all the cheats that have been posted around here and send it to the OP (GamerzHell9137) or some moderator for it to be easily updated.
