Debug Menu

The debug menu lets you warp to maps, trigger battles, edit inventory and stats, and more — without playing through the game normally.

Enabling the debug menu

The debug menu is enabled by default. If it's been disabled, set DX_DEBUG_MENU to 1 in src/dx/config.h:

#define DX_DEBUG_MENU 1

Controls

Once in-game, press D-Pad Left to open the debug menu.

Features

The debug menu has many options. Here are some highlights:

  • Load Map — warp to any map by name
  • Load Battle — start any battle formation directly
  • Story Progress — change the current story progress value
  • Inventory — add or remove items, badges, and key items
  • Stats — edit HP, FP, BP, star points, coins, star pieces, and level
  • Partners — add partners and change the active partner

Quick launch

To skip the title screen and load a save file immediately, set DX_QUICK_LAUNCH in src/dx/config.h:

#define DX_QUICK_LAUNCH 1

You can also quick-launch directly into a specific battle. Uncomment and edit this line in config.h:

#define DX_QUICK_LAUNCH_BATTLE BTL_NOK_FORMATION_00, BTL_NOK_STAGE_00

Performance profiler

Set USE_PROFILER to 1 in src/dx/config.h to show a performance profiler overlay. Toggle it in-game with L + D-Pad Up.
