FAQ

Answers to frequently asked questions.

Last updated 1 month ago

This page is for answers to general questions about P4G CEP.

For assistance with common issues during setup, refer to the page.

Getting Started

Is P4G CEP a good choice for first-time players?

Yes. We've worked with the modding community to carefully select mods that create a "vanilla-plus" game experience.

There are a few small changes we've made to the game balance and mechanics to reduce frustration or reliance on random chance, but this is not a total overhaul pack. If you don't want to use these balance tweaks, you can disable them yourself in Reloaded Ii.

Can I use P4G CEP in the middle of my playthrough, without starting a new game?

Yes. P4G CEP is fully compatible with unmodded P4G save data.

You can start using P4G CEP at any time from an unmodded playthrough, and you can stop using P4G CEP at any time to go back to playing unmodded.

Can I use P4G CEP on the Steam Deck?

Yes! P4G CEP is available for the Steam Deck.

Open the p4g-cep-deck-docs.wacz file for installation instructions.

Can I use P4G CEP on the Nintendo Switch? Can I use P4G CEP with the Microsoft Store version of P4G?

Sorry, but no. Our mods and tools don't support these platforms.

Can I still earn Steam achievements and trading cards while using P4G CEP?

Yes. You can still earn every achievement in the game and trading cards will drop.

Note that the Ultimate Persona Compendium Registration mod makes it so that the protagonist's ultimate Persona will count towards 100% completion of the Persona Compendium and the Thorough Bookkeeper achievement.

In order to earn this achievement, you will need to fuse this Persona in New Game+.

Will I be banned from P4G's online features for using mods or cheats?

No. As far as we know, nobody has ever been banned from P4G's online features for playing with mods or cheats.

Installation

Should I install the Large Address Aware patch / 4GB Patch onto P4G.exe?

No. You haven't needed that patch for years!

  • The original v1.0 build of 32-bit P4G was very unstable - even if you just took a screenshot, it would overload its 2 GB of addressable memory and crash!

  • Users would install the Large Address Aware patch onto P4G 1.0. This would let the game address 4 GB of memory instead of 2 GB, reducing out-of-memory crashes.

  • Atlus noticed this problem and responded - P4G 1.1 was still 32-bit, but it baked the patch into the base executable to allow it to address 4 GB of memory.

  • And finally, the 64-bit update allows P4G to address 16,000,000,000 GB of memory!

Playing P4G

How do I open the configuration menu for Custom Sub Menu?

  • In any overworld area, open the sub menu.

    • Xbox: X PlayStation: Square Nintendo: Y Keyboard: F

  • With the sub menu open, press the Command Menu button.

    • Xbox: Y PlayStation: Triangle Nintendo: X Keyboard: Tab

Where is the Mod Menu option in Custom Sub Menu?

The Mod Menu tool is designed for mod developers to test their mods and was never intended or tested for end users. However, a number of users have attempted to use it as a "cheats menu" and ended up breaking their save data, sometimes irreversibly.

The Mod Menu is hidden by default in P4G CEP. There is a way to re-enable it, but we do not recommend it for end users as the community cannot help you if you break your save.
