5-starring the mercenaries with cheatengine?
I have finished this game on all difficulties countless times but I never could unlock the handcannon because I absolutely suck at mercenaries. I'm ready to ruin it for me by utilizing cheatengine. I just want to play the campaing with this mystical weapon that has forever eluded me. so I need help to hack mercenaries mode. I would love to just have more ammo so I have a fighting chance but whatever gets me the gun will do great!

you can use cheat engine to edit your inventory items ang give you almost ever gun equipible to leon or just give your self 999 G+R+Y earbs stack or try to find the value of the timer and freez it or edit the score points to 99999 OR use a trainer that edits your inventory better then using the cheat engine which you still need to use to get the games code to even edit it. I use a trainer that edits my inventory and other options of the game.

I think you just need 5 stars in all 4 levels not depending on the characters? thats not impossibly hard, but I never made it either

If you where able to beat the game on professional, why do you struggle with mercs? o.O
I mean, sure, with Leon it can be a pain in the ass, but with Wesker its a piece of cake.
If you can aim with the bow, beating Mercs with Krauser is even easier.
Ada and Hunk can get into trouble here and there but atleast the village should be doable. Especially with Hunk.

Use Krauser to get all the 5-stars in mercs. Its impossibly easy. His special is so powerful, you just need to aim down a line. Wait for it to charge, then take out the big baddies. Deal with the little ones as you collect time extensions and items. When ready, find a spot you can line up as many as possible and release restraint :steammocking:

Well I've had super severe trouble with the campaign in every new game, aggresively conserving ammo for the harder bits, often running back to save after knifing a single enemy just to get by from the seemingly infinite amount of impossible scenarios. Imagine my very first run, I thought entering the village for the first time with virtually no bullets was the most absolutely insane thing ever until THE NEXT RUN when I realized there is no need to kill a single enemy.

I just recently finished professional again (because of the HD project release) so I seem to have re-developed some skills handling the mobs. I just unlocked my first character ever in mercs so no, I wouldn't know about krauser or hunk (who?) or others. My weak spot is the special enemies in each level, it's very rare for me to even survive a single match.

Hm, well, if you unlocked your first character (I assume its Ada) then you already have someone who can take on most bosses. The semi-auto rifle usually makes quick work out of the bella sisters in the village, the J.J.s in the fortress an even Super Salvador in the waterworld. Only the garradors (especially the amored one) in the castle can become tricky.

My advise (if you want the to do the regular way) play the Waterworld with Ada until you unlock Wesker (His loadout is better, he is tougher, faster, and his melee moves are very powerfull).
With him you should be able to beat all stages by the time. Or...just beat the castle, unlock Krauser and falcon-punch your way through the other stages.

As for Hunk...well, its a guy with a gasmask who works for Umbrella
(originated from Residen Evil 2).
He only has a custom TMP and some grenades which can be very annoying, when you have to face a boss except the bella sisters.
Lots of people like him because his main melee move is a neckbreaker that instantly kills everything except Garrador, J.J. and Super Salvador. Yes, he can insta-kill a Bella Sister if you stun her first. There some nice videos where the player almost dance through entire groups of ganados, killing one after the other. Very effective but...mostly in the village...

He needs 5 stars with all characters on all stages to unlock the hand cannon. It's fairly accessible but with Leon's crappy loadout it can be a pain in the ass in certain stages.

Thanks for the pep talk James but even in the game it says I need 5-star every level with every character. I'm gonna have to proclaim this as an impossibility for me. I'll keep trying but I'm still looking for a hack of some kind. I don't really like this game mode anyway.

Oh, dont say that. The moment you've got the 5 Stars with Wesker, Krauser and Ada, the motivation to achive that with Leon and Hunk will kick in. ;)
And at that point you now the stages with there bonus times, healing items, ammo boxes and where each boss shows up.

Well....or you can check out this thing:

http://residentevilmodding.boards.net/thread/8306/resident-ultimate-trainer-update-raz0r

it requires a little effort in order to run properly, but it allows you to do some things in mercs.
Freezing Timer, Combo counter or just set the amount of points you want.
Dunno how good it works since I haven't tested it. Its just the first thing you can find on those modding board. And it looked like something that delivers what you looking for.

wow, the rifle really does wonders, and once the cruciating fear of the special enemies subsides, I'm getting better and I'm even starting to really like the mode, too. it just used to really píss me off before. I'm putting the hack idea aside for now. I now have 5-starred the village with leon, and all but the castle with ada. with wesker I'm still trying to remember to use the melee attack, I never used those much before.

somehow I'm having trouble getting past ~22k points in the castle, maybe because I'm trying to stay away from the garrador?

do I have to 4-star a level with hunk to unlock krauser?

If you're talking about the one near where you spawn I'd just kill it. Use the red barrel, throw grenades. You can step backwards if he's coming running towards you, he'll flail around and you can land a hit on the parasite when he swings too far. If he's thrusting towards you with his arm up, get out of his way and he'll (probably) get stuck on a wall, then you shoot him.

The one at the top I'd avoid because of those dammed archers. The other one I never saw (thank god).

Nope, you can unlock every character with any character.
mirror 200cc Jul 31, 2018 @ 1:12pm 
I don't recall ever seeing one near where I spawn. So I'm supposed to reach 60k without killing the garrador near the archers? weird, I must not have explored the whole territory because I'm always way out of time.
Phantron Jul 31, 2018 @ 1:33pm 
Yeah you need to find the time extending items

Usually the first from the three garradors apears, when you went up that plattform near the spawning area. Not the one with the bonus time, the one above that. It takes a while until he shows up. Dont know, if its time based or depends on the kills, but he shows very early compared to the other ones at the very end of the stage.
Time shouldn't be a problem since there are only 5 Time extension on that stage and some them will give you 90 secs to your counter. I always found the way more relaxing than the fortress where you lots of extensions but every single one only gives 30 seconds. And since the castle is very linear, its almost impossible to miss one of those time extensions.
Sometimes its just neccessary to rush through the mobs in order to get them. I've always had the feeling, that the amount of enemies in the castle are way higher and the spawntimes are shorter, than on the stages.
I dont know how far you came until know, but this might come handy:

yup, have not been to that final room of level 3, it's so crazy up there with the archers, I can't stay alive long enough to explore
James.Havoc Aug 1, 2018 @ 12:04pm 
Yeah, with Ada the archers are really annoying thanks to her low stamina (and beeing very slow at all, too). Leon suffers from low range with his shotgun and little damage from his pistol, while Hunk can only rely on his TMP and its low damage....
But....
the archers dont respawn as fast as the other regular enemies so once you've cleared it, it should be more manageble later on. Flashbangs are your best friends up there. That way you keep moving and spend very little time doing damage via melee attacks.
