MADDEN 13 XP MODDING TUTORIAL

[donkEpunch]

Madden NFL 13 XP Tutorial for Dynasty Mode (Career)

DISCLAIMER: I've included EA Resigner (thnks Mojobojo) and pre-configured folders. Ensure that you have XP...this means don't try this if you haven't accumulated any XP. I use Hex Workshop (not included) but you can use your Hex editor of choice. I've made this step by step as easy as I could...I did not include Horizon or a Hex Editor...if cmd.exe included doesn't work, use your own (I'm on Win 7 64bit)...one more thing, I use a JTAG/RGH 360 but tutorial should work for all....Extracted 0 (0 is number zero) Packzip.exe -o (o is lowercase letter)....Have Fun & Don't Forget To Thank

1) After you have XP (for example we will use "722") save your game (Career) to usb stick and then exit to Xbox Dashboard

2) Connect Usb to PC and open Horizon (that's what I use). Extract Career save (example: CAREER-AUG26_10h33m17pm) and save in Madden 13 Modding Folder. Make a copy of this file and place it in Original Backup Folder (as a backup)

3) Go back to Horizon and click Package Manager----Open (select your CAREER-XXXXX_XXXXX in the Madden 13 Modding Folder)---Contents---(right click CAREER-XXXXX-XXXXX)---Extract----(Extract to Contents Folder in the Madden 13 Modding Folder)

4) Go to Contents Folder and rename the CAREER-XXXX-XXXXX file to Career.sav

5) Open cmd.exe---Type without quotations "offzip.exe -a Career.sav Compressed 0" and press enter. It will extract 1 file (00000050.dat) into the Compressed Folder

6) Go to Compressed folder and open 00000050.dat with Hex Workshop (that's what I use)

7) In Hex Workshop search for your XP (remember we are using 722 as the XP example amount) by searching 02D2 (Raw Hex/Motorola short byte for 722). The location of your XP will always be at address 003289E4. Change 02D2 to FFFF and save and exit Hex Workshop

8) Copy 00000050.dat file you just modified and paste it in the Contents Folder. Open cmd.exe and type (without quotations) "packzip.exe -o 0x00000050 00000050.dat Career.sav" and press enter. This will compress the dat file back into the save. Rename Career.sav to original name (ex: CAREER-AUG26_10h33m17pm).

9) Open EA Resigner---click Resign File---select the file CAREER-AUG26_10h33m17pm in your Contents Folder----and it should complete successfully----exit EA Resigner

10) Go back to Horizon and click Package Manager----Open (select your CAREER-XXXXX_XXXXX in the Madden 13 Modding Folder)---Contents---(right click CAREER-XXXXX-XXXXX)---Replace----Select the CAREER-AUG26_10h33m17pm in the Contents Folder----Save,Rehash,Resign----Save to Device

11) Place Usb back into Xbox 360 and now you have 65,535 XP

I appreciate that. I tried to make it as easy to understand as possible.

When performing this:
"packzip.exe -o 00000050 0x00000050.dat Career.sav"

getting this:

- open input file 0x00000050.dat:
Error: No such file or directory

EDIT:
Are we maybe to switch the 00000050 and 0x00000050.dat around like "packzip.exe -o 0x00000050 00000050.dat Career.sav" instead?

My bad...it's 0x00000050 00000050.dat...Tutorial updated

My orginal save file (before extracting in Horizon) is 3,172 KB and after I follow all of the steps EXACTLY, After replacing the contents in Horizon, my save file is now 6,288 kb. Shouldn't it be 3,172 KB?

what about fixing the hash

Has anyone got this to work?
