Hey everyone. Newbie here. I posted this on Gamefaqs but it hasn't helped, so maybe someone here can help me out.

I'm at the point of the game now where I've just entered Rockaxe. I've been trying and trying to get the Trading Post mini-game of sorts, but for some reason none of the posts ever has anything in stock. It's driving me crazy and no FAQ can answer this. Now, I have been using a Gameshark cheat, the one that keeps the clock at 0 so I wouldn't have to hurry through for Clive, but it hasn't affected anything else (To my knowledge), and even when I played the game without it on stuff didn't appear at the shops.

So, is there something I need to do before I can start trading, have I glitched up the game because of Gameshark or is it something else? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

the game will change rare finds and trading things every half hour. by keeping time at 00:00:00, it prevents any of those random changes from occuring. it's great for Clive, and i recommend that you only use it when you are going to reach the next Clive-Elza scene. however, it can be dangerous. i accidentally didn't use it in the very last scene once (i didn't bring Clive so i didn't think it would matter), saved, and that was that :[

WOOO! I love you so much! It worked and now I'll have no problem doing that stuff and (more importantly) getting Gordon.

So you say that after a few hours I should turn the code back on and flip the clock back to 0, just to be safe?

yeah do it every once in a while to be safe. always make sure you are under the time limit before doing each time-event
