My thoughts exactly. Final Fantasy VII had a code, but not Xenogears. Perhaps the programmers implemented some weird routine that initiates the random battle. On the other hand, since the world map no random battles DOES work, I'm hoping that it won't be impossible to find (but you'd think it would've already been found by now).
I'm going to attempt to use PEC to find the code on my PC. I'll be looking for an alternating 0 and 1 value. I'm hoping that whatever the randomizer does, it returns a TRUE or FALSE value. The only thing that I can really hope is that the value doesn't just clear once the glass-shattering effect begins when a battle starts.
During my search, I did find one interesting thing: if you're playing this game on an actual playstation, opening the lid keeps random battles from happening. After reading this, I remembered doing that years ago. I have no intimate knowlege of the playstation hardware, but does anybody know what opening the lid would do to memory addresses? Would there be a range of them that wouldn't get written to with an open lid?
