（I'd like to start by saying that I'm not good at English.）
■ Environment
OS: Windows 11
Cheat Engine: 7.6
DuckStation: windows-x64-release 0.1-9903-g8f0c9dd17 (dev)
Game: Fire Pro Wrestling G (Japan)

■ What I Want to Know
This game features a "Critical" effect, which can kill an opponent in one hit.
My goal is to control the rate at which this "Critical" effect occurs.

■ Approach
①
This game allows you to create your own custom wrestler using the "Edit Wrestler" feature.
You can set "One-Hit Reversal" as a special skill for your edited wrestler.
When set, this feature doubles the chance of a Critical when your health is below 10% and your mental strength is above 30%.

②
Using the feature in ①, I repeated the following searches:
*I can change "Current HP" using cheats.
- Searched for "decrease value" when the conditions for the "One-Shot Turnaround" skill were met.
- Searched for "increase value" when the conditions for the "One-Shot Turnaround" skill were not met.

③
Finally, no results were returned.

■Question
How can I identify and manipulate the "Critical" rate?

Thank you.

DuckStation + PS1 games won’t store this as a simple value, which is why your scans returned nothing.

Key points:

“Critical rate” is almost certainly calculated, not a stored variable.

PS1 games usually use RNG + condition checks, not a percentage value you can scan.

Emulator adds another abstraction layer, so normal value scanning won’t work.

What to do instead:

Find the RNG call or comparison that decides whether Critical triggers

Use Debugger → break on access/write during a Critical hit

Look for a CMP / branch instruction and patch it (force always-true)

AoB scan the code and NOP or modify the condition

Alternative (easier):

Look for existing Fire Pro Wrestling G cheat codes (GameShark / PAR)

Convert them to CE or DuckStation patches
