so hope this helps anyone to create a greate save editor game has no checksum :)

#.inventory location pointer A501218E00

1. open gamesave hex editor u dont need extract the con file it works without

2. now for example if u got your fist handgun ## ## 09 00 = Handgun (Claire's Beretta M93R) 0900 is the id and #### how much ammo u have in clip

*u need to change the item id with the amount and the fist and the second one byte 0009#### this is for the xbox gamesave important*

####0900 = Handgun (Claire's Beretta M93R) ps2 version
0009#### = Handgun (Claire's Beretta M93R) xbox360 version

if u got 14 ammo in your pistol search in hex for 0009000E and hex edit 000E to FFFF

or. to get the inf sighn on each item u need to mod the item id with a 08 here is a example

####0400 = Shotgun (ps2 version)
0004#### = Shotgun (xbox360 version) normal item id
0804#### = Shotgun (xbox360 version) infinite sign shotgun


and u can change easy your items in your inventory replace the item id with a other one

3.Item ids ps2 version everything works with xbox version too :)


Item ID-values in hex.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

One item slot occupies 4 bytes. The first 2 bytes, represented by the
## ## -symbols, are the amount of ammo/uses left for the item, in hex.
For puzzle items, the value is usually 01 00, but some may use a higher
value as well, I haven't yet gone into details about this. For weapons,
if you set the amount of ammo to hex FF FF, that weapon then has
infinite ammunition, altough the game won't display the infinite ammo
-symbol for that weapon for some reason, but this is just a cosmetic
problem. The latter two bytes are the 16-bit hex value the game uses
to identify the item.

Examining any of the items below with the CHECK -command will cause

[Ryudo]

You mentioned 09 00 is the PS2 ID for the Handgun of Claire and 00 90 for XBOX360, does the same apply for the rest of the Weapons?

Example:
Claire's Bowgun (Taken from your table)
## ## 07 00 (PS2)
Will become:
## ## 00 70 (XBOX360)

And:
Custom Handgun (Claire's updated Beretta)
## ## 0A 00 (PS2)
Will become:
## ## 00 A0 (XBOX360) ??

Oh I see, thanks.

I wonder if there's a hex code for the number of Saves..
If possible we could reset the number to 0, that way you can still get an A-rank in a playthrough.
(Since A-rank requires 0 Saves, except for the one free Save you get in the middle of the game right before Chris' Scenario).

Edit:

I just tried to edit my Save, but I'm not sure if I'm editing the correct stuff.

I have a Combat Knife, and a Lighter in my Inventory.

This is what I found so far, please let me know if it's correct:


01 00 37 00 = Lighter (PS2)
00 37 00 01 = Lighter (XBOX360)
00 00 08 00 = Combat knife (PS2)
00 80 00 00 = Combat Knife (XBOX360)
If these are correct then I'm in the right place to start modding the Inventory.

Edit 2:
Nope, incorrect. Loaded my Inventory after adding the Magnum and it froze up due to having garbled items.

Somthing I noticed while playing the Japanese version was that it had a level select for easy, this gave you infinite ink ribbins. Now that the US version is out there is not difficulty setting, you just start the game no option to change difficulty. Just FYI...

[DarkUser89]

can someone make this a great to make it easier?

[ldsdrive]

Funny I tried this trick for the first time and got my 9mm ammo box to show an infinite sign. Couldn't remember what I did though. Too bad. Does anyone have a save with an unlimited rocket launcher so I can find out what's the exact hex for it?

[MBRKiNG]

will upload today two new modded saves

1. a new startsave wich has 2 magnums and two mixed herbs (green,blue,red) all items with an infinite sign. (Magnum is a 1hit kill weapon)

2. and everybody will love the next save modded time zero saves (last savepoint in the game on normal to get the launcher chevo (rank (s) save, beat the game under 4h30min)

Thanks a lot!!! Would you mind telling us how to mod the save count?

I know i am new, but would you mind helping me through teamviewer if you have time please?

I search for the strings in hex hxd and edit them but my inventory never changes so i'm doing something wrong....

I wouldn't really ask apart from i am now playing as Chris and i left the Fire Extinguisher in the security metal detector when playing as claire and now i need it to retrieve the serum or at least put the serum in my inventory...so any help would be appreciated as you can understand i am now at a brick wall as to progressing any further with my inability to walk through fire :(
