Same for Frieza: He can now do his Ultimate in his first, 2nd and 3rd form. Last but not least, it is also possible to make the characters use their Lvl2 Death move when they are in their base form: And so Broly doesn't have to transform into his Legendary Super Saiyan form to use Gigantic Press.

Start the fights directly with Metal Cooler

In Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3, the characters always begin the fights in their base form, excepted in the few missions in the Dragon Universe Mode.
But with cheat codes, it is possible to make the characters start matches in their transformed state, like for example here with Cooler who enters a fight with Vegeta directly transformed as Metal Cooler.

Starts the fights directly with Frieza final form and Macha Freeza

The way theses cheat codes work is simple; When you put particular capsule in a given character skills tray, he will become another character or transformation.

And with cheat codes, it is also possible to make Kid Gohan, Krillin, Mister Satan and Dabura start the fights fully awakened when their Breakthrough capsule is put into their Skills Tray : This way, they won't need to transform during the matches to do their ultimate or dragonrush attacks. In addition, theses characters will also not go back to their base form (I always thought it was strange for them to have some kind of transformations while in the Dragon Ball manga and anime they don't transform during the fights).

Broly's customized Legendary Super Saiyan Transformation

When the codes are enabled, Broly can also start the fights transformed as a Legendary Super Saiyan if the Breakthrough Capsule in his inventory. Also, when his normal capsules are used, he can transform only if he has all his ki bars full and if a particular capsule (Paragas admonishment) is put in his enventory. In addition to this, with the codes he can't transform into a LSSJ in the tournament.

Rewards changed for gathering the 7 Dragon Balls

By default, when the characters find the 7 dragon balls in the Dragon Universe, they get to choose three capsules : Their Breakthrough capsule, their Memories capsule and a (not so) rare capsule. This cheat code replaces this last capsule by a very rare capsule which is normally very hard (and time consuming) to get. To give a few examples, with Goku and Piccolo you can now obtain both versions of the Gotenks capsule for Songoten and Trunks), with Yamcha you can unlock Saibaiman, with Teen Gohan, you can unlock the Cell Games tournament, ...

No fatigue recovery time

This code reduces the recovery time after fatigue to one second : This way when exiting Hyper Mode the characters don't stay idle for a dozen seconds and they recover almost immediately (after just one second).

Shorter Hyper Mode duration

This cheat codes which drastically reduces how long the Hyper Mode last prevents the IA from spamming Dragon Rushes, which is one of the biggest flaws in Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3. This code, if used with the No Fatigue Recovery Time makes Hyper Mode, Dragon Rushes and Ultimate moves still usable but they have to be timed (so used strategically).

Customizing the Normal version of the characters

In some important game modes, like the Tournaments, the player fights the normal version of the characters. This is why in the tournaments, if the player's opponent is Goku, this IA-controlled Goku will only use Kaioken, Kamehameha and Genkidama : Because the default/normal version of Goku only has theses 3 capsules.
Theses cheat codes change this by giving a few more capsules to the default version of the characters.
For example, now in the tournaments Goku will transform up to a SSJ3, Vegeta to a SSJ2, etc...
NB : Of course, the default version of the characters won't have all the characters skills and won't be as strong as the Breakthrough version of the character.
