:dodo1: here's to waiting for a save editor. this game is practically impossible to finish without a walkthrough. it's not linear as XIII and it includes time jumping, so you practically don't know where to go haha. having max gil/cp will compensate for that though! just plow your way through!

fairchild

Made some progress yesterday by looking into the XEX, most of the save process has been mapped out now and going to set a couple of breakpoints and debug the game to find the crypto routine and key.

i'm pretty sure it would be the same like all the other save editors. download the editor, get your saved file off the hdd, and use the editor yourself to edit your save. the editor can have possibilities depending on the game max gil / cp etc. correct me if i'm wrong.

You'll zoom through the game with no problems then. It's really hard when you don't understand because it's not linear and it involves time travel. When it gives you pages of what to do .. i'm like FUUUUUUUUUUUUU. So I keep walking around following yellow exclamation marks hoping it works. It's annoying because you keep having to fight monsters.

Hey, it's amazing to see you're already on the work for a modifier!

I'm playing the game though, and when I see your prototypes I'm wondering if your save modifiers will allow to custom monsters in your party as well, or edit their levels?

Thanks!

Thanks!

For FFXIII 1, I wrote a battle editor that allows you to patch white_imgu.x360.bin. So far I enumerated all the battles from chapter 1 to chapter 4. If fairchild includes game data decryption+encryption, I'll be able to do the same on ffxiii 2.

Possibly but there is only 2 chars in the game you can play has so idk if you can just swap out and play but maybe monsters. but were still testing about that.

The whole "only Serah and Noel are playable" thing doesn't necessarily mean that there isn't a possibility to modify them. I wouldn't be surprised if you guys would find the correct values for getting Lightning into the party. After all, she playable during the prologue. If you can locate the addresses of the character/monster slots things could get interesting from there. Either way I'm cheering for you guys.

Well they do have a level and they can be upgraded with cp (Maybe not there own but I was in the cp area and I could get my monsters stats up np)

No eidolons/summon what so ever! The only eidolon was Odin which was in the beginning when you fought as lightning and odin. I saw on a youtube stream that a guy had a monster who looks like odin.

As far as I know you can can fight and capture a variant of Odin at Vile Peaks. A few days ago I watched a stream and the guy who streamed played with Odin in his Team.

Sorry, the video i saw was a live stream. I'll try to get a video or confirmation. it might be another monster that looks similar to odin non horse form.

Edit**
I can confirm you can use Odin as a allied monster. It's not the same as lightning's odin but you're able to get him through a quest and defeating him two times to get his crystal.

The name happen to be "Twilight Odin"

He appears in the latest trailer here at 2:16.

They are still stored in the game and can be accessed if you know how to give them abilities + roles + role levels.
There's some more suprises in store, so stay tuned. :D

Gen, as a FF fan myself you made a hellvua awesome XIII editor. (XIII....however...stirred me wrong due to the massive linear gameplay without any choice of free-will or free-roam) I've heard some pretty good/decent things about XIII-2.....was kind considering on getting it since I heard that it'll read your XIII save. Hopefully it'll be the opposite of X vs. X-2 (X being the better game of the two).

Regardless, XIII-2 editor will be awesome sir. :)

I'm really looking forward to this Editor. (especially that monster editing, because I mis-raised my HungryJoe, giving him the wrong crystarium bonus and now he's stuck with 5 ATB at max level)

This game would have gotten a perfect 10 from me if it doesn't require a considerable amount of grinding at some points of the game, like at the start of Episode 3 where no matter which route you take (A or B) the monster/boss difficulty ramp is going to be high that it is faster to grind than to keep on resetting fights. This editor is going to remedy all that. ^^

i don't think this game required any grinding.. i stopped at episode 4(waiting for this SE). if you're fighting monsters that murder you in one hit.. you're not suppose to fight them. it's either find a way around them or you forgot a step to make them weaker.

Well, I played FF13-style going straight to the ! mark, not making any detour, and at the beginning of Episode 3, I got slaughtered by the first story-line boss of both A and B path. It's not impossible to beat them, but if I missed changing to DEF-DEF-DEF paradigm before the boss special attack, I'm dead meat because of the blood damage. It's too tedious to keep on resetting the fight, so I went grinding in episode 2 area for a while and come back for an easy fight. (Of course, I don't have a Jammer, because I didn't...um...grind)


Back on to the topic, I wonder how far the editor will allow monster editing. Will we be able to edit their abilities (adding, removing locks)? Or is it just stat only?

Thanks for uploading your save. Grabbed one item I was missing out of there. it_elixir. If you have any more saves with new monsters, please upload. As it is right now I have 154 monsters added to the tool, and we can edit all their stats. By you uploading your updated saves, I can see their auto_XXXX abilities too.

Yes, I think Odin does capture monster easier.

Well, basically, there are 154 monsters or so. So the more you capture, the better. I don't know the names of specific monsters, so I guess you could go back through the game and reverse time to capture what you don't have already. Just by looking through your save file I found a lot of info. Thanks again. :)

The best thing you can do is capture as many as possible, and get as close to the end of the game as possible. I have 154 of them unlocked in the save editor right now. These use a similar patch for each though. By you getting the monsters legit, I can include the legit patch for each monster.

Also, if you buy every accessory, and get to the end of the game, I can complete the accessory editor. Weapon editor is already finished.

Hey, guys. I'd like to try and edit my save manually. Not too afraid to use a hex editor if I need to. Would it work to just open the container and decrypt files to do so, and if so, which files/offsets are which? I'd like to not reinvent the wheel if possible, especially considering there are a ton of files in the container. Or is it more complicated than a simple comparison between two saves, and hexediting?

MadCabbit
01-30-2012, 10:17 AM
Okay, I opened one of my saves in Modio, then extracted the APP.DAT, then decrypted it using the current save editor. Opening up that file in a hex editor, I was able to adjust the number of items that I currently have, and re-encrypting the APP.DAT and replacing it in the original save works (except for saving over the original after loading, like my original problem, it seems its best to save afterwards to a different save). No doubt this is obvious to Jappi88, Echelo, and Genesis at this point. I can't seem to add new items, or switch existing ones for new ones, this just results in a corrupted save (the same doesn't even show the save anymore). Like the FFXIII save editor for the previous game, setting the item number to 65535/FFFF works, but is reset if you receive another of that item in battle. If anyone else is brave enough to try hex editing APP.DAT, regular items start at 0x04A358, and the monster components start at 0x0527D8. Each item's tentry is 18 bytes long, starting with the item name (in ascii), ending in the number of items (hex), and zeros in between, with nothing in between entries. The internel names aren't all that clear, with the regular items being more understandable than the components. For example, my last two monster components in hex are "6D 61 74 65 72 69 61 6C 5F 61 30 30 31 00 00 00 00 63" "6D 61 74 65 72 69 61 6C 5F 61 30 33 31 00 00 00 00 07" in hex ("6D 61 74 65 72 69 61 6C 5F 61 30 30 31" equaling/lining up with the ASCII "material_a001", and "6D 61 74 65 72 69 61 6C 5F 61 30 33 31" being "material_a031" (These correspond to Potent Sliver and Vitality Chip, respectfully). the values "00 63" and "00 07" can be both changed to "FF FF" to raise the number to 65535, but changing/adding items isn't as easy. Also, Librascope, being a regular item, are a bit more understandable, the identifier for that is "it_libra" (why they made filling the bestiary so much harder in this than the last game is beyond me).

If anyone else can give pointers in how to add or change items, it would be appreciated.

Also, I've gotten the first two tiers of Potent monster components, and the tier 5 ones from some boss battles. They are as such for reference:

material_a000 - Potent Droplet (Bio 1)
material_a001 - Potent Sliver (Bio 2)
material_a004 - Potent Crystal (Bio 5)

material_a035 - Potent Bolt (Mech 1)
material_a036 - Potent Chip (Mech 2)
material_a039 - Potent Generator (Mech 5)

From this, material_a002 and material_a003 are most likely the Bio 3 and 4 components respectfully, while material_a037 and material_a038 the Mech 3 and 4. However, if they are, simply swapping the identifiers, or adding them after the other items corrupts the save.

Echelo
01-30-2012, 10:42 PM
Instead of changing to 65535, just change them to 999, or 9999. You'll probably never use more than that anyway.

As for all this, the new save editor has an item amount editor, a monster material editor, a component editor, a bestiary editor (with status mods), a weapon editor, and I'm working on the accessory editor. You can also swap in ffxiii-1 characters and mod their individual stats as well.

For Materials and items
The best thing to do is allocate all your materials/items in byte arrays first. ie: material_a000 to material_a039, it_potion to it_elixir
search for them and enumerate their current values
Blank out the material/item section before you write to it. ie: just fill it with {0x00} * 18 * 40 for monster Materials, or {0x00} * 18 * 13 for items
then tell your tool to write the modded values, and the entire list back, while checking to see if the material/item 's modded value is greater than 0.
If it is, write your material/item byte, followed by its modded value.

There is a walsh style matrix on the weapon, accessory, and monster counts, and its just counting the slots available. This has all been handled in the new tool as well. I'm finishing the accessory editor this week, so get ready people. ;)


Another nice feature I recently added is a full modio style memory editor, with more features and a nicer display. You can even specify conditions to look for in memory like +/- int32 amount in big endian. When a condition is hit, the resulting diff line will show up as green. You can then tell it only to display hits based on your criteria. After this, you can add your pokes, and see what happens. I believe with enough people trying to find memory edits with this tool, that one of us is bound to find the correct spots in memory to edit.

After this editor is released I plan to release the memory editor as a standalone tool as well, cause as it is, you can use it on any game, this one is just built right into ffxiii-2 editor for convenience .

i dont think 13-2 as a cp crap but not sure

Unlike Final Fantasy XIII, there is no cap on how much a character may grow in the Crystarium at any given time. but this may only be for the Crystarium lvl tree if i was reading it righ or wrong

Echelo
01-30-2012, 10:51 PM
Max levels for each character's role is 99. In the new editor, you can just max your cp, and level up your characters to 99 in each role. Since crystalarium only asks twice if you want to add an atb slot, you can just up it to 6 in the stats as well.

Well, I finally got material_a002/Potent Orb, but even with this one in the inventory, when I try to change the value (even to 0x63 for 99), it corrupts the save somehow and the game refuses to read it. How would I work with byte arrays with this? Is there a good hexeditor or something else that will do this? I'm more used to meticulously studying differences in files, mainly mirroring the functionality of cheat engines like the one built in to Visualboy Advance when I find differences. I'll try blanking out the section first before writing. I also notice that occasionally the item is listed twice in the file (like in this case material_a002 is listed twice), but when I decrement that item and use a new save, the second part doesn't seem to change at all.

Edit: Zeroing out the monster components and rewriting the list worked, thanks. Got all the potent items now.

Woah. Judging from that screen - You have a Monster Editor in there as well? Would it be possible in the future to even add monsters you don't have yet? (Example: You have a Green Chocobo and want the Red one, would it be possible to add that as well?)

please please need help bad!!!!!

i used jappi's save editor, and everything went fine, but once i got to the end of the main storyline, got past the credits and got back to the historia crux it wont let me save my game, go to save and it says 'save operation failed'. it turned my previous save into a white box (instead of a picture of both the characters). i even tried making a new save game data on my hdd, but the same 'save operation failed'.

i turned my xbox off and on to see if it was ok, but they were corrupt, luckily i made a back up before the final boss, so i finished it again, but still it wont let me save once i beat the final boss!!

PLEASE HELP!!!

This is what I was curious about, in particular I was wondering about Omega, it was a preorder dlc that's unavailable now sadly. I'd like to imagine the code for it was already in game, and the dlc code just enabled it. Wish they'd just make it available to buy, I'd get in a heartbeat.

Damn, it's almost as much as the game? Well shoot, I just don't have that kind of disposable income. Here's to hoping they release it for a couple bucks or someone finds a way to add it otherwise. I don't advocate piracy, I'd happily buy it at a normal DLC price, I just want to be able to see the fight and whatnot.

Hopefully they'll release Omega as a dlc, I can't afford the crazy ebay prices. At least I have Lightning and Twilight Odin for now, so they'll do until I can get Omega, I have a feeling that there's going to be a lot of dlc for this game. Twilight Odin is good for a commando, with +25% str I have him at 1362 str, used potent and power items to get him to lv99, he's not Omega, but for those that don't have the dlc Odin is very useful, plus Zantetsuken does some nice damage.

Twilight Odin is the boss for doing the Vile Peaks areas, he's not a dlc character. Lightning and Adomar are from the dlc that was released on Feb. 7, not from a preorder. I know one gate to Vile Peaks is in academia 4xx AF, I think the other one is in Oerba 400 AF, might be 300 AF.

Pre-order bonus is the Summoner's Outfit for Serah, and Battle Attire for Noel, plus the Omega monster battle in the Coliseum.
Regular DLC is Lightning and Amodar as mentioned, and Azrael Bow for Serah. (Increases Chain Bonus Lv.X, you start with Level 1, but as you progress in the game you can buy better versions of this bow at Chocolina's Shop).

There's also the Genji Bow, but you only get that as a GameStop buyer. (And only if you pre-ordered). So Europeans can't get this unless they trade codes.

I think this game will have lots and lots of DLC like new areas and bosses, party members, and especially weapons and outfits, and maybe at some point all those pre-order bonuses will be released as regular DLC so keep your hopes up

Instead of changing to 65535, just change them to 999, or 9999. You'll probably never use more than that anyway.

As for all this, the new save editor has an item amount editor, a monster material editor, a component editor, a bestiary editor (with status mods), a weapon editor, and I'm working on the accessory editor. You can also swap in ffxiii-1 characters and mod their individual stats as well.

For Materials and items
The best thing to do is allocate all your materials/items in byte arrays first. ie: material_a000 to material_a039, it_potion to it_elixir
search for them and enumerate their current values
Blank out the material/item section before you write to it. ie: just fill it with {0x00} * 18 * 40 for monster Materials, or {0x00} * 18 * 13 for items
then tell your tool to write the modded values, and the entire list back, while checking to see if the material/item 's modded value is greater than 0.
If it is, write your material/item byte, followed by its modded value.

There is a walsh style matrix on the weapon, accessory, and monster counts, and its just counting the slots available. This has all been handled in the new tool as well. I'm finishing the accessory editor this week, so get ready people. ;)


Another nice feature I recently added is a full modio style memory editor, with more features and a nicer display. You can even specify conditions to look for in memory like +/- int32 amount in big endian. When a condition is hit, the resulting diff line will show up as green. You can then tell it only to display hits based on your criteria. After this, you can add your pokes, and see what happens. I believe with enough people trying to find memory edits with this tool, that one of us is bound to find the correct spots in memory to edit.

After this editor is released I plan to release the memory editor as a standalone tool as well, cause as it is, you can use it on any game, this one is just built right into ffxiii-2 editor for convenience .

how do you swap with chars from FFXIII?

I had posted this on another topic.Anyway darkvoid this will have a item editor has you can see and hero a memory editor is like a trainer for pc it hacks gil,str,hp,mag and atb right in game no need to change saves.If you look at the fast boot options (i like to call them) dev mode,ftp mode and usb all are fast at hacking your save so I wanted a even faster and better way of hacking your save:)

And yes you need a jtag/rgh/dev kit lol.[/QUOTE]

It was supposed to be finished last week though I think, so it's safe to assume he's made great progress already.

Has anyone been able to track down the HEX value to modify the ATB guage in the APP.data (manually of course)?

Diet
02-16-2012, 06:13 PM
As I understand someone did but whenever it was set to anything higher than 6 the game would freeze in combat. Are you just trying to get that last point? Because then all you would need is a weapon with the +1 ATB on it, which you can get at the end of the game/right after. Once the big editor comes out they may have an item editor in it where you could just add +1 ATB to anything. I'm trying to remember what thread it was that said they had found that hex but I just can't seem to find it, I'm pretty sure it was somewhere on this forum.

Hey Diet, thanks for responding. I'm just looking to add the last ATB section to my gauge without using the special weapon. I've research high and low for the Hex value to modify, but I have been unlucky tracking down a value that actually works. Do you have any values I can try tuning to obtain the full gauge?

Thanks!

Well, as I recall Echelo and Genesis are the ones working on this, however according to their profiles they've been active on the forums but haven't posted an update in quite awhile. So it's either one of two options:
1. They've decided not to finish it, if such is the case it'd be great if they'd release what they have so some other community members could finish it.
2. They're working heavily on it/Been too busy to work on it and update

Guess that's more like three, but either way a chime in from them would be greatly appreciated, especially seeing as how it says they've been online recently.
