These are the FF8 enemy control cheat codes with a fix for the slowdown/gameover problems that you normally would have when controlling enemies in your party. All enemy valid IDs range from 10 to 9F, check the video to see what each ID corresponds to and how useable the enemy is. There are also a few other useful codes, like replacing enemy-side (same IDs as replacing your characters) and controlling the battle camera with the right stick.

You should try the fix "F" first, unless it's indicated in the video that you should try "7" first instead for that enemy ID. DO NOT USE BOTH FIX VERSIONS ON THE SAME CHARACTER SIMULTANEOUSLY. If the circle button menu is slow and your character is grayed out, you need to use the other fix version. Under most circumstances, you should be fine first try.

You should avoid junctioning HP+20%, HP+40%, HP+80% and any magic to HP, to all replaced characters. Junctioning everything else is fine, just avoid HP because it will mess with the fix codes. If your character levels up as an enemy, it's possible that past a specific level you need to change the fix version for the same enemy ID. It depends on the level and the enemy, some enemies should be fine any level with the same fix version, but a few might change. If you just want to go safe, be level 100.

Omega Weapon will hang the game if you fight more than 1 opponent. Even against 1, it still can hang. Griever, Ultimecia 2 and Ultimecia 3 can be problematic if you fight more than 1 opponent, and during boss battles. So using those 4 enemies regularly is a bad idea. Everyone else should be fine, as long as you don't select something that it can't do (as you can see on this video). But if your battle party has 2 or 3 enemies at the same time, large bosses will probably result in a hang or softlock.

🇺🇸 These codes are for the English US PS1 version 🇺🇸
