Thanks to mbrking for finding the difficulty offset.

To use, just extract your Save##.dat (Save00.dat = Autosave) from your "FSSaveData". DON'T USE MODIO!!!

UPDATE v3:
Changed the Look

lol, ya I was bored at college today, so I figured I would make an editor to keep me busy :-l I did a lot of trial an error yesterday and found pretty much everything. I also know where equipped equipment is, and where your power pallet is (gretchen's equipped magic). I haven't added those yet because I don't know what ID is for what item and I don't know how to code anything but a button, I can't even code a SAVE button lol...

What do you use to extract the save.dat from your FSSaveData if not modio? Cheers for the help guys and I hope that question didnt sound too noobish.

Sadly, no editor can make this game good. Being a fan of beat em ups, i just can't get over how horrid this game is u_u

Either way, AMAZING work! If i was still playing it, i'd for sure have given this one a go.

Use Horizon (http://www.xboxmb.com/horizon), SAIO (http://www.left4modz.com/forums/index.php?app=custompages&do=show&pageId=1) or 360Revolution (http://www.xpgamesaves.com/files/file/530-360revolution/).

Modio corrupts 90% of new game saves and is just an overall poorly maintained program.

I still use an old er version of modio for extraction and havent had any issues yet but I just wanted to know if you just hate MODIO (LOL...) as I do too most times! or if it really doesnt work for this particular game save? Either way I have 2 of the other mentioned programs so I wont have any issues...and THANK YOU! This editor makes a pretty rough game somewhat enjoyable!

03-02-2011, 10:49 PM
I must be doing something wrong, I cant get it to work. I use SAIO to extract the auto save (Save00.dat) I used the editor on the save00.dat and overwrite the save00 and place it back into the FSSaveData file but nothing has changed. Still the same amount of souls etc. Any help with this will be evry much appreciated. Thanks in advance guys

03-03-2011, 03:09 PM
Ive tried again. This is what I did.

I extracted the FSSaveData file from my xbox 360hdd, then used SAIO to extract the Save00.dat. I then used the editor then went back to Save00.dat and clicked on overwrite on the Save00.dat. Then clicked save then used xplorer 360 to put the save back onto my hdd. Started the game and got the save is corrupt message. What have I missed out? Thanks in advance

03-03-2011, 03:45 PM
Make sure to hit Rehash and Resign. If that still doesn't work try using Horizon (http://www.xboxmb.com/horizon) to extract/inject the Save00.dat and use it to Rehash and Resign.

I only had to mod health every other chapter...

Raoh
03-14-2011, 07:46 PM
I havn't gotten a chance to use this, yet, but can I assume that the way to do this is to extract the autosave, mod it, readd it to the save, then rehash/resign?

Thanks in advance.

This editor is great! Only thing I have a issue with is version 1.1 does not allow the inf health for either character...but version 1.0 does...I have both so it doesnt matter. Another thing is the knights fury is not inf using either program??? IDK...I don't really need it so I don't care, also I have gone through several missions ( I am just after the 3rd or 4th witch, right after your first encounter with the main antagonist (the guy who had you execute Gretchen) ) and I still have inf health! IDK if I just got lucky but I am happy!!!

BIG QUESTION!? Does anyone know if I get to the final boss and make a copy of my autosave then beat it...do I have to play each mission again on the hardest difficulty for that "hardest difficulty" achievement? or can I change the dif in my autosave then just beat the final boss and it will pop?

For some Reason it does not save the Souls nor does it change anything to the Scores, if i do it manually with an Hexeditor everything works and the Editor also reads the correct Amount i have edited myself, but it does not save anything if i change it in the Editor, so the Editor is of no use for me, i'm faster by doing it myself.

I also don't know if the Health is saved correctly, it seems to save it unlike the Souls and Score, but because the Souls are not saved i can't really trust the Editor also.

What i don't understand is, the Amount is read correctly, so why does it not save correctly? After saving the edited Amount is revert back to what it was before on saving, looks like a bug to my, but why?

Edit1: Just tested on WindowsXP on a VM and it does not save it like in Windows 7, so something is wrong for sure, would be nice to able to test the older Versions, perhaps its a new bug.

Edit2: Got V2 and v1.1 - v2 does not save, same bug, v1.1 does save the Souls correctly, no bug. So something not good with v2 and v3 obviously.

Edit3: The Offset for Health/Fury is also shifted one Byte wrong to the Right, so it does not work, after fixing it myself by shifting it one Byte to the left it works!

Also it seems v1.1 does the Inv Health/Fury correct, but v2 and v3 does save it shifted wrong one byte to the right and also does not save the Souls at all, while v1.1 does and all also are not able to mod the Scores correctly it seems, anyway i better mod them myself because the actual Scores don't need to be changed, there is only one Byte to change for the Ranks, much easier.

I also tested the one in that Infinity Tool, this one saves the Souls correctly, but fails at the same wrong shifted Bytes for the Inv Health and Fury, so it seems they ripped the (wrong) Offsets from v2 or v3 which is funny somehow... ;)

Edi4: Additionally to the wrong shifted Offset, also one Byte is missing on one of the Block of one Characters Health or Fury, so perhaps its the Reason why someone said it worked on 1.0 but not yet, can't test 1.0 because i don't have it, but the Block should be filled normally.

Awesome editor, Idlehands. Thanks a bunch!

If someone is interested here some nice Offsets:

00000057: Current Chapter to save, if you change this to $14 and finish the one you are playing currently it will directly jump to the final Cutscreen skipping everything, you also earn the achievement for finishing the current Difficulty selected automatically without playing everything.

00000080-000000EF: All Stats for Achievements like, how many Kills, executions, perfect Executions, Enemy killed with Embrace or Fury and overall Time Gretchen Carry, if you mess around here a bit, you get all Achievements with only one Kill, Execution or what ever. A simple Logic would be changing everything over 10 but below 100 to 99 and everything over 100 but below 200 to 199 and everything over 200 but below 1000 to 999, most of it is then covered. If someone need it, i can analyze further what is what.

For now what i know is:
0000009A: Executions
000000BA: Total Kills
000000AF: Enemies killed with Knight's Fury or Witch's Embrace
000000B3: Enemies killed with Knight's Fury or Witch's Embrace
000000B7: Perfect Finishers or another to set to 99
000000AB: Perfect Finishers or another to set to 99
000000BF: Most Probably Amount damaged yourself with Witchcraft
000000E4: Probably total Carrytime of Gretchen

00001A00-00007C4F: Blocks of 80 Bytes for each Stats and each of the five Difficulty, changing any of the 00000001-00000004 Sequences to 00000004 equals to S Rank meaningless of Scores. Each Block is located at a 0000XX00 Offset, to fill all up its possible to simply copy them to below or on top depending of which difficulty you played first. if you changed the Offset 00000057 the Stat will be saved to the Block corresponding the Value there, no matter if the one before was filled or not.

Also for Health and Fury(The Editors have a Bug here, the Offset is shifted wrong by one Byte and one of them one Byte is missing also.):

00000901, 00000905: Health1, set it to FF FF FF for almost infinity
00000909, 0000090D: Fury1, set it to FF FF FF for almost infinity (Witches Embrace use it all up! Fury not!)

00000981, 00000985: Health2, set it to FF FF FF for almost infinity
00000989, 0000098D: Fury2, set it to FF FF FF for almost infinity (Witches Embrace use it all up! Fury not!)

Also nice to know is, the Health and Fury get reset once in first Chapter and once in each of the Chapters where you control only one Character.

Hope it will help someone to quickly finish this IMHO crap Game... lol

Just came across your post, what you're saying is that there would be a way to finish that crap game once and for all IF that option was enabled. Could you explain how to do that? The trainer works for infinite life / super but the minuskelsus chapter is near impossible as the values don't apply to him. "00000057: Current Chapter to save, if you change this to $14 and finish the one you are playing currently it will directly jump to the final Cutscreen skipping everything, you also earn the achievement for finishing the current Difficulty selected automatically without playing everything." --> This could save tremendous time in higher difficulties. I (we)'d really appreciate some help here :) Thanks
