I'm on a Mac, so with BitSlicer I can only pause the flash, not slow it down to 0.1.
Following the instructions as best I could, I loaded it up, kept quick unpausing/pausing the flash, and searching for the one aob - kept getting zero, zero, zero, then after a quick unpause/pause, searched and finally found two results - the loadup bar was about as long as you said it'd be...10px. Changed both values, then let the game finish loading. The "test zones" button wasn't there on the village screen on the complete loadup, but it appeared after I went to a different area and came back. F1 still works, so that's good, but ` doesn't open the console even with both values changed.
I kinda feel like an idiot; I know you've probably been as specific as you can be, but I still can't get this, dagnabbit.
