Just want to say thank you. These mods have made the game much more enjoyable.

Anybody who can make a save editor for this game plz? Or point me to one that works? I know I can mod a lot of stuff with trainers and cheat engine and stuff but I kinda just like to load my game with stuff and go rather than change settings on trainers and cheat engine. For this AND FF13 if possible.

Considering Cheat Engine works perfectly fine and accomplishes just about everything you could need, there's no reason Krisan needs to spend his valuable time to make a trainer. There's much better and more fun things he can work on, like expanding the monster mod or fine-tuning those music mods.

Hexerin I don't want a trainer or cheat engine script I want a "save editor" and I also don't ask that Krisan take up his time to make one. I just asked if somebody(anybody) gets some free time between projects that they consider making one or if somebody has seen one that works for the Steam game versions(I know there is one that works on the Xbox version and to a limited degree the PS3 version tho BSD can be used for the PS3 version) that they post a link to it here please. No pressure meant for any mod devs to put aside any work or go to any huge trouble if they don't want to. Just if you can and if you have time. lol I wouldn't be dumb enough to push anything on them seeing how much work they already are putting into current mods haha.

we will probably never see a save editor, on pc people seem to prefer cheat engine. For some reason people like Hexerin consider a save editor the same as a trainer when its not.

There are very few things that a save editor can do that CE can't, and those things are covered by the multitude of readily available save files online (with some CE tweaking depending).

Its an easy mistake to make chrcoluk if you don't cheat much in games or are primarily a console gamer as those terms dont come up often in console related talk or non-moding or cheating context. I AM curious as to what Hexerin means by what a Save editor can do but not cheat engine though. After all I have seen just about everything a save editor can do done with cheat engine. Especially since many PC based trainers and save editors are either made with hex editors and/or with cheat engine.

[chrcoluk]

Well lets see.

A save editor can adjust inventory, level etc. at any point of the game. a trainer needs to hack memory addresses live and is much less user friendly to use. Often released trainers do not have the ability to adjust everything, they tend to stick to the mainstream stuff such as high exp/money gains and invincibility. Also I would consider using a save editor safer than something thats watching your pc memory.

Not to mention a trainer is more of a hackish way of changing a game vs a patch or modified save file.

e.g. PC version of FF7, how do you revive aerith with a cheat engine table? vs in a save editor just popping her back in the party :)

[seiferzero]

well I agree we shall get one. BTW: is there a topic for cheats and mods of type-0 that will be available in less than 13 hours?

try to search on Type-0 Board ? also, Type-0 looks like a little different game, so making mods for it can be impossible or can take a while before they will show up

[Krisan Thyme]

I haven't even finished downloading Type-0 yet guys, give me some time. lol

- Q: When will you release your modding tools?
- A: There aren't any real modding tools yet, so there's nothing for me to release. All of my mods so far are done through old fashioned hard work and research. If and when any tools are made, I'll let you know. For now though, there's nothing to share.

Yet there's a decrypt/encrypt tool and extract/repack tool packaged with your mods. Linking to those would be a good starting point for people looking into modding the game.

Is there any way to memory edit the party members, like how you could hex edit in Lightning by changing
noel
p_noel
pc010

to

lightning
p_lightning
pc000

When I use cheat engine to change the "Name" "Type" and "modifier" it only shows Lightning in the menus, but out of the menu you are a clone of the unswapped character and have no battle model. (No freezes for some reason o_O)
