Creating Cheats Manually

Good Afternoon,

I am running into a few issues. I am playing an N64 game and I’m trying to manually create a cheat file to run on it. The emulator is Mupen64plus. Now I have done this for PS1 using PCSXReARMed with np using the format Cheats = 2

Cheat0_desc = “desc” Cheat0_code = “1234567:1234” Cheat0_enable = “false”

Now the cheat database I have appears incomplete and I wasn’t able to see where to update it. I created the N64 folder which previously did not exist. Then within that folder I created the ZeldaOoT.cht file and have used the above format. I also tried using a + instead of the :. Which didn’t work so I tried the other emulator GlupeN64 which also did not work and tried both ways. Am I missing something or is it a flaw within that emulator that is not supporting this which is why it is not included in the cheat database for that system? I am asking bc I have manually created working files on retropie using Lr-Mupen64 in the past. I am not sure if their is a difference.

Thank you.
