Any Workshop Currency Cheats?

[Bovin Khan]

So i play 100% solo. Just started playing again, only to see that ALL my characters and data was deleted...... A LOT a F-ing hard work just gone.

So i ask, is there any type of cheats for getting Ren/Exotics?

[6345-789]

There is!

The devs posted it on the Reddit cesspool a while back. Assuming you're on Windows and haven't moved the /users directory, shut down the game, then head to c:\users\<yourusername>\AppData\local\Icarus\Saved\PlayerData\<long numbered directory>\profile.json

Under the MetaResources section (should be line 3 in the file), you want something like this:

		{
			"MetaRow": "Refund",
			"Count": 30
		},
		{
			"MetaRow": "Credits",
			"Count": 10
		},
		{
			"MetaRow": "Exotic1",
			"Count": 10
		}

If you only have a Refund section, copy and paste my code and replace that whole section. Credits is the yellow stuff, Exotic1 is the purple stuff. I have no idea what the Refund bit is for, but it's always 30 in my file.

This is not a cheat, it's a way to get back what was lost in case of a bug (often in multiplayer) or loss of characters

"refund" are talent point respecs.

there's a separate entry for red exotics, but I can't remember the syntax for it's name.

is the game shutdown when you're modifying that file? don't ever try changing anything while the game is running. Otherwise just edit that file with most word processors and save it. Do NOT mess up the formatting, like the curly brackets and commas. Those actually mean something in json.

its

"MetaResources": [
		{
			"MetaRow": "Refund",
			"Count": 2746
		},
		{
			"MetaRow": "Exotic1",
			"Count": 184550
		},
		{
			"MetaRow": "Exotic_Red",
			"Count": 197800
		},
		{
			"MetaRow": "Credits",
			"Count": 103715
		}
	],

I use notepad++ to open stuff like these jsons, but you can use whatever.

Not sure what you're doing then. Please have a parent or guardian assist you with altering that file.

Simplest answer is you aren't saving the changes properly. That's an extremely simple editor to use, so hence, why I suggested you get assistance.
Second simplest answer is your user account doesn't have permission to make changes to files on that computer. Hence why I suggested you get the possible owner of the computer to assist you.

In either case, you hijacked someone else's thread. Recommend you start your own thread in the future instead of +1'ing someone else's thread.

I have tried saving changes in different ways
my Microsoft account has administrator rights
maybe I am doing something wrong but I can't figure out what exactly
I came across the discussion looking for an answer and asked questions hoping for help

Make sure you have the right one. The game saves like 6 copies that are slightly older as they go. Make sure you use the most recent one. Open directly to notepad. Only change the numbers. Every space including empty ones matters. Only hit save not save as.

[william_es]

Those files are in a format called JSON.

The curly brackets, commas, and the general formatting all mean VERY specific things in JSON. So if you're erasing parts of it by accident, you're creating a broken JSON file that can't be used. The game will ignore it, and replace it with backups.
