Re: Dungeon Defenders Compression Toolkit
uhm... either download the gui for the compression toolkit (found on the first page) or...
you'll need to learn how to use the cmd...
look for "cmd.exe" (should be somewhere in your windows directory)
or in the start menu (in win7) in the searchbar type "cmd" in older windows version just select "run program"(or something like that... don't have an english windows version ^-^''') from the start menu
and type "cmd" there
from there you will need to navigate to the directory where you put your dd.exe
preferably you create a folder on "C:\" and name it "dd" (you can give it another name if you like... just don't use spaces or any type of special characters)
and put your dd.exe and the extracted savegame there
then in the cmd window type "cd c:\dd"
then you can decompress/compress your save
for decompression type --> "dd -d NameOfYourSaveFile decompressed"
and for compression type --> "dd -c decompressed NameOfYourSaveFile"
all of this is stated in the readme.txt... so... next time please read that first ^-^
Re: Dungeon Defenders Compression Toolkit
woow they really works. thx
Re: Dungeon Defenders Compression Toolkit
Ok. I'm pretty much a retard here. But I can't seem to find this DD.exe file that is needed to be placed into the folder. Please make me feel stupid and let me know where I get this or where it is.
Re: Dungeon Defenders Compression Toolkit
you download the file on the first page of the post, use winrar or other programs to extract the folder out, within the folder you downloaded off page 1 will be the dd.exe file as well as a read me, that is the dd.exe file that you put into the c:\Saves folder that you created to allow yourself to use it.
Re: Dungeon Defenders Compression Toolkit
Oh gotcha. I'll have to find that folder now. That's within the folder of the GUI? That's the only thing I downloaded
Sweet!! Thanks. Got it. That was the only thing I couldn't figure out.
Re: Dungeon Defenders Compression Toolkit
I haven't read through this entire thread, so I don't know if this has been reported or not, but I'm getting an error; "XBOX360 Container detected."
Can't decompress the save.
NOTE: I've examined my hard drive in Modio and can't find this "DunDefHeroes.dun" file. I'm trying to decompress the DunDefSave file, as that's all I can find.
EDIT: Well aren't I an idiot. And I'm a great modder. Completely forgot about opening the DunDefSave file itself. Found the .dun file within. Boy do I feel stupid lol.
Re: Dungeon Defenders Compression Toolkit
we all have blonde moments, lol. I do the same myself on a daily basis. I'm quite literate with computers since i'm going to school for computer science / video game design right now, but when starting off i made the simplest mistake of forgetting to re-save to my usb drive after finishing up with hex-editing. Hours of work wasted due to forgetting to hit 1 button when finished. Why the forums are here though, to allow the rest of us to help you with your personal blonde moments though ;-)
Re: Dungeon Defenders Compression Toolkit
Well the toolkit worked wonderfully. Luckily, I have some knowledge of Linux which carried over into the command prompt (such as the whole "cd <directory>" thing).
The only issue I ran into was changes to weapons not being applied.
I accidentally applied huge stats to an armor piece instead of the weapon on my squire, and all the stats showed up as "120" or "121" or something.
Tried applying them to what I thought was the stats of my sword....nothing. Still did lame damage.
I had found this tutorial on Se7ensins which had stated that four hex values were the damage, and to have damage hit the billions, to change the values to "77 35 94 00". This didn't work at all.
So I made a new character, a Huntress. Found my first bow on the first level, saved and hex edited it.
EDIT: At this point in typing this post, I noticed the guide said to upgrade the weapon and rename it. I hadn't done so for the armor, but the changes still applied. I also just found out that with all my changes, the armors value had jacked up to over 7 million mana, so I promptly sold it. Seems when I deleted my Squire, all his items went to my item box.
I'm just upgrading my crossbow as much as possible right now, but I still don't know how to go about renaming the crossbow. Here's how I modified the values of it.
Code:
01 01 00 01 02 03 7F 7F 7F 7F 7F FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 77 35 94 00 83 00 00 FF FF 01 77 35 94 00 3F 99 99 9A 3F 80 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 FF 77 35 94 00 77 35 94 00 FF FF 7F FF 00 03 0B 06 00 15 58 11 C0 20 E0 5C C0 00 00 00 01 0C 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 01 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 3F 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 3F 80 00 00 00 00 00 02 20 00 00 00 00 02 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 31 44 75 6E 44 65 66 45 71 75 69 70 6D 65 6E 74 2E 45 71 75 69 70 6D 65 6E 74 48 75 6E 74 72 65 73 73 2E 43 72 6F 73 73 62 6F 77 53 74 79 6C 65 33
Someone try that above code and tell me if it modifies a crossbow to have billions of damage, because it's not working (yet) for me.
EDIT 2: Was just able to rename my crossbow. But I found a neat chaingun that I'm going to try to mod. Seeing as I sold that modded armor for 7 mil, I went ahead and fully upgraded the chaingun. Renamed it "Trololo", as the game wouldn't let me rename it to "Get Fucked".
