What's non-DMA? This might be the first question you're going to ask me. Ok, for this tutorial what you only need to know is, non-DMA games address will not change, their addresses are permanent.
Objective: Hacking fixed values
Game used: Harvest Moon: Boy & Girl [US]
What do I mean by fixed values? Those values are visible and fixed, for example gold, time, attack and so on.
Let's get started, run the game. Check your current gold, in this case I have 1000G, hold Select button for 3 seconds (that's the default setting) and the cheat menu will pop out.
Scroll to "Cheat searcher" and press the X button, scroll to "Start a new search for a fixed value" and press the X button, press Square button and change the search bit to 16bit(8bit maximum value is 255, I wouldn't explain more about it). At the DEC put 1000, press X and wait for it to search.
It found 145 address, yours might be different result. Now let's change the value of gold. Go buy or sell anything. In this case I have 800G, so let's search for it, the steps are the same, except now you choose "Continue a search for a fixed value". You should get lesser address, repeat the step until you found one address left. If the address is not narrow to one, then you can try each of the address.
In this case, the gold address is 0x001B2F0C.
