Venetica hex edit help

[masterchief1657]

I recently got my hands on a game called Venetica. It doesn't completely blow, but I think that a little hex editing could help it be more interesting. Can anybody hex edit this for me?

XP - 422
SP - 20
AP - 3
Money/Ducats - 99

or

[masterchief1657]

I tried that.....at leat I think I did. XP

[Countryboy]

360haven no spaces or caps or anything

[pureIso]

ok cool. I am sure now that the info I provided about the checksum should be right.
Well the location at least.
I don't know what type it is but tomorrow I will try to start fixing it.

I have no idea how but I will try.

Can someone try changing the amount of money with the offset I provided and see if the game gets corrupted.

Yeh I know I edited part of the save to confirm where the checksum starts.

[Countryboy]

i tried hex editing the save u gave me pureiso but it still changes back to its presets

EDIT: also i see the changes for money in the game save before i load it but not when im in the actual game it just goes back to what it was

Thank you very much. I just got the game too so I can test on my xbox.

[masterchief1657]

Anything Yet?

[masterchief1657]

Has anything been found yet?

[fairchild]

Yeah, i now know the compression, file structure and looking into if there's a checksum check. I will need to write an unpacker for this game and might take a while.
